Hello Falkyrn,
Thank you for your prompt reply.
I think we all must take many little diversions in our research, for if we did not we might never come across an end result, or have the knowledge to make the decisions as to which may be our next direction within our research.
When I first posted this 'Topic' it was because I had heard about
'
The Huguenots', and because we could not make any connections going back with in my research, I was trying different scenarios as to why there was no ancestry. There could also be a real possibility of a link to
'The Covenanters', with my families in the
Ayrshire/Wigtownshire areas.At this stage I do not know where my ancestry arrived from prior to Scotland / England / Wales / Ireland, but that is further down the track.
However, it has only been within the past month or so, with the help from other people here on 'RootsChat', that my assumptions relating to my family connections have been confirmed as being correct. I still have a long way to go, but now I have a direction to go.
The following links are where my assumptions - turned to reality and confirmation:
