My line is Alexander Nimmo & Elspith Slich or Sleigh Carriden 1694, I think Alexander was born 1669,I know they had a son John,so still don't know if a connection.

Have heaps of Nimmos in Polmont and also the Bo'ness/Carriden/Abercorn areas of W. Lothian - at one time I was trying to link them all together but did not succeed in establishing a connection between the Stirlingshire and W Lothian elements of the clan.  Given the close proximity I am sure that they are related in some way - any suggestions?

I know little about my Nimmo and Rankin families.  I'm looking for a William Nimmo married to an Agnes Russell.  They had a daughter, Jean/Jane, who was my great-great-great grandmother. 

The Rankin connection is even further back.  It is Janet Rankin married to a James Nimmo.  The parents of William, I believe. 

My research keeps me in the Bo'ness and Linlithgow areas.  I wish I could help with the connection between the families you mentioned.  My connection might now be correct.  Hope someone can help me, too.

Thanks.
