You need some type of timeline maker :)

I've scribbled down my messy Hamiltons from County Down on a tree but only to a certain point as I have Hamiltons wed to Hamilton cousins.

I put the well proven only on my tree

The rest is on paper, since I am not sure about some bits.
Wemyss/Crombie/Laing/Blyth (West Wemyss)
Givens/Normand (Dysart)
Clark/Lister (Dysart)
Wilkinson/Simson (Kettle or Kettlehill)

A simple spreadsheet wouldn't take much to get them into a time line just using Column A for the year and copy/paste the snippets from the various bits posted into Column B..then develop lines from there.
