No worries.
I see you are a Morrison! Is that your OH's name? We may be related on that front too - my great gran was a Morrison from Buchlyvie. Maybe better continue this by pm - we have strayed from the point just a bit!

Thats amazing!  Smiley

I'd actually be interested in all the information if thats not to much trouble. I'm on genes reunited if you have a tree there it would probably be the least hassel way to see the connections.

I'd be really interested in the ancestors you mention firstly.

In what way are we cousins?
