The best place to find out about Dr. Livingstone is at the David Livingstone Birthplace in Blantyre. They have a lot of very well set up displays. https://www.david-livingstone-birthplace.org/

Donald, do you know if there are any decedents of these Livingstons in the DNA project? It could help researchers to gain a bit more information.

Re: Angus Livingston Anson County, North Carolina

Great finds, Alex! I'm sure that Donald will like reading this. I hope you took photos of the grave sites with details of the engraved head stones. Those will be valued by your descendants along with all the work you have done.
