Greetings everyone....

In searching, yet again, for family in Midlem I stumbled upon these posts. I had been told all along that I still had family there and I am wondering if the names here may be what I have been looking for. Some of the Donaldson's that I am related to came to the US in 1794-1796 but some of their family stayed behind. Any help that you could afford me would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you

Kaye Donaldson

Hi Kaye,

Welcome to Rootschat, hope you enjoy the research. Can you give any of the names left behind, did they come from Haddingtonshire now East Lothian? Midlem, Selkirkshire is about 30 to 40 miles away.
