I wonder does any one else get as confused as I do... I'm legally blind and miss a lot of info along the way. My questions are. If this list is Alexander's siblings and it looks good but can't get Scotland's people to reach my email I think my inbox is full my kids will have to rescue me
Any way I'm sorry to post long entry but wanted you to see I have been searching for awhile now and can't go back further then Alexander Wylie.Any direction thanked. If any one needs help and I can help UI can at least try for you
