Alan Leitch, England
October 2006

I was really chuffed with the work you done with James Chalmers. I visited the place where Thomas Chalmers was based in the early 1800's when James was born - it's still there! I also tracked down the old parish church where he had been baptised as well. It was really terrific to source my ancestors like that - geographically as well as genealogically!

Sue Kirton, Spain
September 2006

 A massive thank you. I received the Georgina Smith- Mackenzie file today. I haven't stopped feeling so overwhelmed. I cannot explain the feeling. Guess one could say a large part of the family tree has began to fall into place. Once again thank you so very much.

Linda Thomson, Australia
August 2006

Brian, thank you so very, very much. I have tried to find this information on Elizabeth Risk for a long time.

Fran Curfew, USA
August 2006

 Thank you so much for doing this research on my Grandfather William Harvey. I received your information and I had a smile on my face from ear to ear. I got on the phone and called everyone that I know and told them . I really did not think that I would find anything, for some reason Grandfather said that all the records were burnt in a fire in Dunblane.

Carmel Q. Harvey Woodward, USA

I very much appreciate your prompt attention and the attractive set of documents you have provided. When Robert Greenlaw and his family came to New Brunswick in 1840 he established himself as the blacksmith in a lovely little Loyalist town called Hampton. My generation knew nothing of the beginnings of this Scottish branch of our tree. This week I will forward the information to my family members in New Brunswick.

Eric Clifton Langley, Canada
January 2006

You did a cracker-jack job on finding Robert Litster for us, perhaps you could hunt around to see about any siblings.  We were very pleased with the results of your  efforts.

Moira Simpson, England

Graham Bishop, New Zealand,

Brian, latest report arrived today; thank you very much. Again I find it of great interest.  The research you've done for me so far is fascinating as I'm not sure if my father ever knew much about his side of the family or ever talked much about this. My mother's memory is failing a bit now but she's quite clear that she'd never heard of my grandmother Agnes having a twin brother......

Thank you for the report which has been very useful. You say in your conclusion that it may be possible to explore further the Bain family, Alexander Sinclair, and the Manson and Swanson lineages. I would be grateful if you would go ahead and do all of that.

Received my lovely parcel from Scotland today! Thank you, it was so exciting to learn about Catherine. I phoned my mother, who said a “Mrs. Dawson” came out on the same ship as Dad - he always thought they were vaguely related.... 

Sandra Walker, Australia

Just a note to say a big thank you for researching William Linn for me, and especially for the quality and clarity of your findings. I have passed these to my half-sister now 84 years old. This is the first time she has known anything beyond her father. It was as if she had won the lottery !!!

Thanks very much for the most interesting and informative report about my grandfather Thomas Pirrie. There is a lot of very interesting information that you have provided  that we had no knowledge about at all. We are so interested in the fact that for generations our family appear to have lived in the Kilwinning area that we hope to arrange a visit in the not too distant future to see where our ancestors originated from. Thanks again for your help.

Brian Pirrie , England

Douglas G. Phillips, USA

I received your package today on the family of Simson Reid and I thought it was absolutely wonderful. There was a lot of very interesting information in the report. I called my Dad and told him all about it and he was very excited to hear about it. I was starting to give up on my research it seemed that it was a dead end. I was having trouble finding information on the internet about my family. When I opened my mail box today and saw the package there, I couldn't get home fast enough to read it. Now I am more excited than ever to learn more about my family. Thanx again and look forward to hearing from you again.

Jodie Grassing, Canada

My son Charles was VERY appreciative of his Christmas present of the family ancestry report. Best regards

Nancy Delierre, France,
January 2004 

I am delighted with the amount of information that you have been able to obtain for me. My father Hugh MacCulloch migrated to Australia as a young man and didn't really keep in touch with his family. I knew very little about his background and it will be nice to be able to pass on to my children some information about their Scottish heritage. Thank you very much.

Lyn Henderson, Australia
December 2003

Your information on my father, Peter Taylor, arrived today. I was very pleased with your search and want you to know that you found the correct family. I have a book which my father was awarded as a school prize in 1911; it is from the same school district as named in the 1901 census.

Fiona Horrocks , Canada

I am so happy with what you have been able to find out for me on my Walls family. I wouldn't have had a hope from this end of the world.
Many thanks

Deanne Walls, Australia

Ann Rafferty, USA
July 2003 

The report on my grandmothers family is wonderful. It almost brings her to tears. My grandmother Violet Mary Cunningham is 88 and this is all she has of her family history. I would love to get her in touch with as many family members as I could that may possibly still be living. Thanks again for all your help.

Lisa Jessup, USA
June 2003

We received the report in today's mail. It was great. My husband said that just knowing what his grandmother's maiden name was is well worth the money we paid to find out . The rest of the information is an added bonus. Once again thank you for all your help and if we ever need any other information we shall surely contact you. 

Edith Hunt, Canada
June 2003

 I am delighted that you found birth records for Aunt Bess and Uncle Tom. Both were very much a part of our extended family when I was growing up so it pleases me to be able to have this information. Again, thank you for all of your help.

Tony Jensen, Scotland
April 2003

You did excellent work on my grandfather Archibald McCrea and hopefully you can do the same on George McCammon. He was born in Ireland in 1860 and married my great grandmother Ellen Larkin Armstrong in 1890 in Whitehaven, Cumberland, England before  they moved to Newmains, Lanarkshire in Scotland. 

Orville McCrea, USA
April 2003

Thank you for all your hard work. It does mean a great deal to me to have this information. The difference in the birth name is the reason I was unable to find this information myself.

Mabel Slemp, USA

Mrs A Nelson, England
December 2002

Thank you very much for your effort. The report made interesting reading especially where we see that Christina was born in 1888 which made her 25 at time of marriage yet her marriage certificate has her at 24 which was why I was looking in the wrong year. The details in the report have been very enlightening 

David Coates, New Zealand

Al Pfannkuch, USA

I just received your research of my Mother's family tree, and I can really appreciate all the work that went into it. This is indeed amazing to have so much information about the ancestry to go through. It will keep my husband and myself occupied for a while, to digest it all. I know our family will be interested in what you have been able to sort out. A million thanks for all your research.

Annie Fairchild , Canada 
November 2002

The report is presented so beautifully. I really appreciate having someone like yourselves at the other end willing to take on this kind of work. The gaps in my Mother's life are being filled in piece by piece and I think it is doing her good. Thanks again to you, and all at Scot Roots for your wonderful service and sympathetic attitude.

Margaret Buchan, Australia
October 2002

Your professionally presented report arrived yesterday .You have done far more than I expected, not only with the double lineages, but with the provision of details that give much cause for family speculation. I would never have discovered this particular James Fulton for example, and the Hannahs were a delightful surprise. I will ask for your help again if I run into another brick wall. Thank you for your work in breaking through this one.

Noel Purdon, Australia

Alan, what a great picture of the Broadfoot family  you are creating for me.  I  can't tell you how excited- and impressed- I am, particularly with  the preamble, building up the picture of these long dead but very  real people, instead of just supplying the requested documents. Well done and a million thanks, it is money well spent ......

I am hoping the research and God willing, that you can go back in time as much as possible.

Diane Moore, Canada
June 2008

It was exciting to see the Adam family history in print. Thank you for doing the finding for me, it has helped add some "people past " to my family tree. I will come again for your help when I absorb this lot. I visited Scotland one time and felt a close connection to the places I went. Many thanks

Robin Irwin, New Zealand

The documentation has arrived and I must say that I am impressed with what you have provided me.

Leslie Orr, England
June 2007

Brian, the latest info on Maxwell McFarlane and family has now arrived. Thank you. Before I contacted yourselves, I initially subscribed to Ancestry.com, which was OK, but the particular specialisation you have as to Scottish ancestry meant that I chose to initiate the major element of my research through yourselves, and it has been proved to be a wise choice!

Andrew McFarlane, England
June 2007

We have received the full report on the family of Thomas Reilly  and it is absolutely great.

 Dear Brian,
We were very impressed at how clearly you had set out the research report for us, making it so easy to follow and you have corroborated some facts we had through word of mouth.

Great presentation package as well!!!.

Best wishes from

Glenda Fleming, New Zealand

First of all let me thank you for all the information on the Gibson family that you sent me. It was fantastic to sit and read and take it all in. Also, can you tell me where Andrew and Jane Finlayson are buried? You did tell me that they died in 1867 and 1874 but I don’t know where they are buried so I can visit the cemetery when I come to Scotland in September.

Wonderful ! At last, answers to long standing questions about the Duffy family. I have cousins in Shotts and often wonder why they never conducted a search themselves. Have a "smashing" day ! ! Thanks , again.

Thanks for your latest report received safely this weekend. We found the further information on our Pirrie family very interesting indeed as it not only adds to that which you provided us with earlier but also fits with the little bits and pieces that the family have been able to provide, to give us the whole picture.

Brian Pirrie, England

Many thanks for your work.  You may be interested to know that our family are  to be presented to Princess Anne at the Royal Show in Edinburgh, so I bought the four grandsons McIntosh ties and our daughter and granddaughter McIntosh brooches.  I hope they get time to tell Princess Anne that her gt grandmother used to request my gt grandfather to drive the coach for her when she stayed at
Balmoral Castle !

Thanks very much for the latest Pirrie ancestry report dated 4th February 2005. Putting all of this into our “family tree” is really fascinating. We do intend to visit the area when we can and I’ve already sent for some literature on Kilwinning where most of our relatives appear to originate from.

Brian Pirrie, England

Meg Peckham, USA

Great excitement today when your letter arrived bearing "Royal Mail" which my great grandfather James McIntosh used to deliver with his coach and horses. He also drove Queen Victoria when she stayed in Scotland! It was great to confirm lots of dates and fill in blanks of others and also confirm the shift of the family to Alyth. Our daughter and her husband  hope to visit this part of Scotland next year with their family. Many thanks for all your work.

Betty Sime, New Zealand

 Thank you my report arrived yesterday. I cannot express how grateful I am for this research. Thank you and God Bless your work. It is truly a gift to those of us searching for our roots in Scotland. My mother and Aunt will get this info for Christmas and I know it will mean so much to them.

I  got the post from you about my Grandmothers family tree - to say we are thrilled would be an understatement! The information you have given us is priceless. 
My mother was in tears to know that much about her family, all the way back to the early 1800's. I just wanted you to know how much joy you have given my family and me. I can now put together a family tree to pass down to my children. And for them to know their bloodlines is a treasure they can pass down for generations to come.

Hi Brian, I simply cannot thank you enough. I received the folder you sent today and am delighted with the research on the More family  - so much so that my husband wonders if you could help him with his Scottish Williams ancestry . Hope you don't mind but I also passed on your address to an American friend ,whose ancestors were McAlpines.

Re the research on the George Stewart family, did Euphemia Baxter have a sister? Ever since we received your report we've been studying the map of Scotland. I had no idea there was such profound French connection: Fraserburgh founded by a man from Anjou, France. This whole thing is getting out of hand. I think our trip to Scotland may be more like a month than a week. Thanks again.

Doug Phillips, USA

Jodie Grassing, Canada

I just wanted to say thank you so much for finding out about the McAllister family for my Granddad. I took him to Govan when he was here, and he was like a kid at Christmas -I've never seen him so happy! We went to the street that his father was born in, and there was a pub on the corner that was there when the family lived locally. We went in for a drink, and the landlord gave us a picture of the place taken in 1905! We then went to a coffee shop over the road to get out of the cold, and the shop had been there and in the same family since 1870, so the current owner took out the old photo album and we spent a good hour in there looking through old photo's!! Thanks again, and thanks for giving my Granddad the best Christmas present!

Ian McAllister, Scotland

Thank you so much for your help, my mother has been trying to get hold of William Henry Kirkwood's birth certificate for several years. We may have other enquiries at some stage as both my mother and father's families both come from Scotland

Debbie Smart, New Zealand

Your package arrived yesterday. It proved to be interesting reading. I think my great-grand aunt Ann Anderson was a most 'interesting' person. What I would like to do now is find out if I have any cousins still living in the area. That would thrill me to no end. I have a cousin ,another great-grand daughter of Aleck, who wants to take a trip to Scotland, with me of course, to meet our family. Again, many many thanks for all your hard work.

We just received the report that you prepared for us. Very interesting to read and much appreciated. You mention that you might be able to go further back  and clarify the origin of Barbara Stephen's name, etc. We definitely would be interested.

John Thomson, USA

Hello Brian, I received the results of your search today which was quite a surprise. Thank you very much. The research has cleared up one family mystery, why a son of an excise man could not read !! especially as his daughters were all very academic. Thanks again 

Pat Fraser, England

Thank you for the research you have done which has now taken me back another two generations and made a lot of unrelated information on the Gilberts fall into place. Everything ties in including the Glasgow reference which now makes perfect sense.

I thank you very much for your help with the Sellars family ancestry research, Brian - the report made very interesting reading! My mother would now like to go on to see if we can find out the dates that her grandparents and aunts and uncles died, if possible.
