Dewar Families Of Fife, Scotland
« on: Tuesday 27 April 21 00:57 BST (UK) »
Hello, I was wondering whether the Dewar families who lived in Fife originally came from Perthshire? I am still searching for my Dewar family -- Alexander Dewar & unknown McGregor -- Alexander's wife was related to the McGregor/Graeme family of Fowlis Wester, Perthshire, Scotland. Gregor McGregor b. ca. 1752, son of Alexander & Margaret was a maternal uncle of Alexander Dewar's son, John, who emigrated to Nova Scotia.  I have searched ScotsPeople, fam.search, ancestry, etc. and have done a number of DNA tests.

Yes, I am aware of Luc -- a lot of his info matches my own tree.
