Wow,Billy,,that's a long time..
I used to ask questions about my heritage when I was a kid,,and got varying answers about where my father's family came from,,and where my mother's came from also..Not easy to extract that,now,,as dad died 4 years ago,,Mum's not really interested,,and her side of the family is broken,split,and intertwined to the point where she has half,and step brothers and sisters..
I don't NEED to know,,but WANT to know,,so,we have got onto a genealogy website,,and with the help of Lynda's sister in law,,have started going back through the generations,,not far yet though..
Lynda,on the other hand has traced back to the Battle of Culloden,,as she has roots to the Shetland Islands..
