Hi Alastair,
Glad to hear from you. Thanks for reminding me about that Scottish Bird site. It really is extremely helpful, isn't it? However, my puzzle at this point is over these non-Birds:
"Helen Kelly's parents were John Kelly (abt 1707, Prestonpans) and Helen Hacket or Halket (b. 14 Feb 1714, Tranent). Her parents were James Hacket or Halket and Izabell Johnston." I haven't been able to prove that point by finding any OPR's. I have found an OPR BC for Helen Hacket 1722, the daughter of William Hacket & Grizel Johnston. I was further confused by GenesReunited contact who said they were the parents of our Helen? I am hoping you can lift this fog for me? I would dearly like to take that line back further. I got so confused I haven't gone near the issue for weeks.
I would very much like to trade Birds with you. I am hesitant about posting an email url on a forum? Any suggestions?
