geez you are super... I really enjoy and thank you for your work for me... I am sure it keeps you busy... My Grandmother Maggie Davidson had a sister named Crissy ( maybe Chris or Cristine also, not sure of her proper nam.. lived in Canada... There was a Christina Davidson who was the sister of Maggie, and Marion Kerr and Robert Davidson were her parents.. The family were members of the Davidson Clan which I really have no information... I wish they were all here now cause I have lots of questions... learning of family history is so enjoyable.. their memories live on....

those names are all my aunts and uncles... George is my father.... they are all gone now.... of all those siblings there were only 2 children.... Myself and a cousin... we are talking about visiting that area before we get too old... Surely somewhere over there must be some family still living that I can possibly talk with... Just a dream but you never know.... A guy named Hume helped me in the search for Crossetts in Scotland... amazing but we tracked down a family in Canada... maybe it was Quebec... his great grand father Joseph Crossett was my grandfather Georges brother...
