I believe that the first couple are my G G/parents as my mother is a Mary and dad John and they are apparently the 3rd or 4th John/Mary in the family.

Thank you Alyson

My grandfather Alexender Kinghorn was born approx. 1900 in Edinburgh, Scotland he married Helen Ringland in abt.1926.

I am trying to find out ancestors or any other decendants from Alexander Kinghorn's family. They had 3 children, my father being one of them, we know plenty about them but not much from Alexander's generation or prior to him.

Please help.
