I'm Heather Marr born 1955 Ayrshire Scotland. My Father John Marr born 1922 Ross and Cromarty Sc. His father also John Marr--born?? where?? Not a very original lot with names are we? [My brother and his son are also John] I'm interested to know if anyone thinks that their family tree connects with ours a couple of generations ago. We are now in NZ and the family has grown here so that I now have a grandson. Keen to know any info. [email protected]

Hi Heather,
I know your Father through the BurnsClub, but as far as we can make out there is no blood relationship going back as far as we can.
