Hi Jane,
I am looking to connect with any family members or find more information that may lead to family connections. I would like to expand the family story.
Yes, I am on ancestry. My main tree is wilson of penilee.
The name Mair or Moir is shown on the marriage cert. of Robert Duff and it should read Helen and not Jane.
Sorry for the error.
Gordon
