Dear Kay,

Although not 100% clear, but I come from Robert McGeorge and Jane Clark line - a great grandchild (or have I missed a great out?).

What we have determined is that this Robert & Jane had five children, and have that fairly well tied up. what does remain a mystery is going back from there, which should get us into the territory of 'Rob Roy' of cattle thieving fame -and hence, I am told, the origins of the name McGeorge as they could no longer use MacGregor.

I appreciate your post was a while back, but if you get this email me on tom@equinoxflowers.com
