Who knew? While doing a search for all things MacGregor I came across a little town in Canada, in the province of Manitoba to be exact, called MacGregor. How cool! Wouldn’t that be sweet to live in a town with your own name? I’d feel pretty darn important!
I’ve just started to do more searches on our family and to see if I can trace it further back now that we know who came to Canada and when, but holy smokes the info out there is overwhelming. Where do I even start? I’ve already spent a couple of hours this morning where one thing leads to another, there must be a better way to do this.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, and otherwise I’m going to stop and think and come up with a more organized plan for all of this research! A very big, but very interesting job to say the least…
Wish me luck!
Have you tried the ancestry search site … http://www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk …? I think it is most probably the best site for searching scottish roots. They have the facilities and records to trace your Scottish roots back to the 1500`s.
Happy researching
