Find Ancestors

Nor me,I feel a dose of" google"coming on ,quick, before I go to thrash the locals at quiz night.
Must be Indian of some kind I woulda thought.
Wonder if it tastes nice?

I have no idea what Hindu Kush is

The cancerous family? Have no fear, they are both doing well! The mum's early lymphoma treatment is almost over, but we still have to know the outcome; the sis's advanced colorectal cancer treatment is also all over, and seems to have been a great success. It's been just over a year since they both came down with it, so things are looking way, way up!

Now the Hindu Kush, I have to say my rather odd first cousin once removed does sound serious about that, and actually it strikes me as pretty silly. ;)

Oh Janey this all sounds rather serious, and all Ive done is lost Diane

Events overtake me ...

I was off visiting the cancerous -- surprising the mum by walking into the hospital waiting room on Friday where she was waiting for her second-last radiation treatment, spending the weekend visiting her and the sister, who has her ileostomy reversed next month, then accompanying mum back to the big city on the hospital shuttle bus and leaving her for her last treatment while I caught the bus home. Five hours of motion sickness; worst intercity bus driver I've ever had ...

We went in to the big city early on Monday and met up with my mum's recently deceased cousin's son to talk about good old Ernest (our mutual gr-grfather). Apparently Ernest belonged to a men's fraternal order called the Hindu Kush that my first cousin once removed is planning to revive, hm.

So that's the Monck/Hill update, and I shall check out Aubrey, and I have nothing of any value to say about McLeod!

The Norman Macleod that I put up was on Ancestry and is Ishbels brother ,so his parents have to be Kate and Donald,just as it says on the ricewallace tree.

Just received reply from Alex, parents of his Norman were Alexander and Margaret, so not our Norman

No T V in those days Viv
I have sent messages to 2 tree owners re Norman Macleod, hope I get replies this time

One more to add to Ishbels siblings.

The last chick to be hatched it would seem.

Norman Macleod

ABT 1900
in Tarbat, Rossshire Died

18 DEC 1965

The only one with a death date so I guess he is one of the tree owners closer relatives.

Please dont tell me that he and I are related, I cant look that miserable even if I try.
I was only joking ,I am certainly not a lady and I am glad of that.
Maybe he is related and that is why he is not very helpful. He has never had the decency to reply to my emails,so I will disown him.
Thank you Vivienne and Janey? for your help
Evelyn

Search trees on ancestry again,I sent a message ages ago but have never received a reply.

Rain stopped play on gardening,its peeing down,just finished my transplanting of roses in time.
Going to idle a few hours in idle chatter and useless lookups that get nowhere.
I think I have earned it these last few days,even though I say so meseln.

So where has Janey been hiding then?On holiday?working ?or just avoiding us?
BTW Janey ,if you "google" Aubrey Noble you will find that things may be a bit nearer an ending,or may not!

Oh My g!! I might be Lady Evelyn

And then of course there's always the possibility of a Viscount in the woodpile. ;)

That might give an idea of his vintage. That page has a form for emailing him, and also a phone number.

His name may be completely coincidental, of course.

His postal address is in Tain (I'm not going to try to figure out the geography).

At BT on line for MacLeod post code IV20 there are seven listings. One could always just call/write them ...

Two bloomin little terrors on their way for walks,no rush to get them back,take as long as you like, then my plants may stay in the ground and my cushions in one piece!!

Ishbel has told me that I have to spend tomorrow on her famil,y as I have now caught up on most of my work.
I shall be contacting Ireland about Duncan mcleod.
I will be writing to Rev john macleod in Tarbat,he will be sick of hearing from us all soon.
I do wish I knew his age as I would try and find out how he is connected to the Rev Donald Macleod.
I will also try and find more marriages etc for the rest of Kate and Donalds kids.
So really my day has been mapped out for me.
We can but try.

Any leads on Hector Mcmurchie{1915}??I have not found a marriage for him of course as SP marriages only go to 1933.
Maybe you should write to Edinbrough?
