Washington, DC; Hello:
I am the great granddaughter of Captain James Myles who was born in Ceres, Fife, in 1825. He married my great grandmother Susan Crofts of Dundee in 1857 and we have some of the letters he sent to her from his round the world voyages that are quite fascinating. I will be in touch again when your new season of events starts in the autumn. I am rarely in Scotland but very interested in these family connections.
All the best,
Maida Macdonald Stadtler

6:02pm 05-06-2013 Roger Arrick: City/Country
Tyler, Texas, USA; Hello. I'm the administrator of the Orrick DNA project at FTDNA.

Orricks have been in the US since 1650.
Histories say that they came from Fife where they were known as ORROCK.
Y-DNA is showing connection to O'Rourke of Ireland but this doesn't
mean that they didn't go through Fife as Orrock.

So, I'm trying to find a living male ORROCK who is confident of his
lineage in Fife back to 1650 to test. Would appreciate any help you
can offer.

4:38pm 03-26-2013 Joanne Peterson: City/Country
Fairview, Alberta, Canada; DUNCAN: We are looking for cemetery records/monument inscriptions for our grandparents Robert DUNCAN (1859 - 1941) and Jane Boucher (nee HONEYMAN) DUNCAN (1859 - 1923). We know that Jane died in Canada but her remains were, supposedly, interred in Dunfermline (name of cemetery not known). Would also like to know the burial place/monument inscriptions for three of their six sons, William (1882 - 1936), Robert Honeyman (1884 - 1963) and Alexander Boucher (1897 - 1962) who are all supposed to be buried at Dunfermline (again, name of cemetery is not known). The other three sons emigrated to North America -- John (1888 - 1940) is buried at Brownvale, Alberta, Canada; James Honeyman (1890 - 1954) is buried at Du Page, Illinois, USA; and David (1896 - 1970) is buried at Edmonton, Alberta, Canada.

We have managed to obtain from Scotlands People copies of birth, marriage and death records for almost all of the above mentioned people. But, due to the fact we live in Canada it's difficult to get details of burial for those to died in Scotland.

Any and all information would be greatly appreciated. Thanking you all in advance.
