Hello Gary,

I use the Rootsmagic program to complement my Ancestry trees. You can upload your Ancestry tree to Rootsmagic and then take advantage of their searching, sorting and listmaking capabilities.
 
Using your example, if I wanted to find families that lived on a certain street, I would just use the Rootsmagic 'Search Everywhere' feature to look for anywhere that street name appeared in my tree. You can also print a list of everyone that lived in a certain place.

Using the Rootsmagic 'Places' feature, you can go through a gazetteer of all place names in your tree and find ones that are misspelled or wrongly entered. Then pop back to your Ancestry tree in another tab and locate the person whose info you want to make changes to.

It's not as easy as just using one program for everything, but if you like to work in Ancestry, Rootsmagic can help a lot.

There is a free version of Rootsmagic, I believe, but I pay for the full version which is a one-time expense of about $40 US.

Hope this helps!

Yes that is correct.

My scans of the photos are from the Vaughan Archives. In the Cameron fonds at the archives there is a photo of her son, John Reid Heggie, as well. Also ones of the couple's younger children, Jessie Cameron and Andrew.

Would you be able to post those pictures?

They sound like they might be on my tree after all. I may recognize if I could see them.

Thanks to both of you! Those are useful links. So as soon as I can figure out which parish(es) I might be looking at, I will be able to make a decision re: Rootsireland. I note that one I'm sure I need - Ballisodare - doesn't have anything available.

I am still waiting for one more will, ordered 24th July. Would it make a difference that the person lived in Scotland? All my others were from England. Not that they came in a hurry...
