Obtaining a DNA report with information about your ancestry is easily arranged these days. Unfortunately, the DNA information supplied is very general and only provides details of ancestral ethnic areas. To really know our ancestors, we must research our family history to uncover the stories: the achievements, the tragedies, happiness and sorrow. In this book, I have attempted to not only document my Scottish heritage but also record some of the family stories that I have uncovered during my research. Although the relevant facts, dates and places resulting from research are all necessary components of ancestral history, it's the stories that provide a real insight into our ancestral past.Of course, this type of project is never complete because there are always mysteries to solve, leads to follow and gaps to fill. Hopefully, some young enthusiastic descendant will take on this task.
