Hi

From these messges it looks likes Jen has found another branch of our Sutherland tree

I am from the line of Jane Sutherland c 1798 daughter of John Sutherland and Catherine Gunn, Jane married Thomas Rutherford. 

atherine Gunns parents are John Gunn & Janet Sutherland ( just to confuse things even further another Sutherland - they must all have been inter-married one way or another but I guess in a small area like it is to be expected).  But I think the Rutherford boys who came up with the sheep stirred things up a bit as there seem to be a couple of bairns born out of wedlock!! 

Happy to share any info on this family.
