Hi again Pete

Yup, this is my lot - they eventually ended up in Colorado so if you can connect to them then bingo. I am related directly to Sophia Ramsay. Will check out the other info you gave me and let you know what I come up with.

Cheers

Hello DysartPete

Interesting comment about the McBain/Bain's often dropping the Mc.
My ex is a Bain and not longer after we got together her late father mentioned that although he had English roots, his family originally were from Scotland and dropped the Mc from their name sometime earlier, but I cant recall if it was his father or grandfather who dropped it.
Father in law and his father emigrated to Rhodesia in the 50's?
