Donald,

That is an excellent summary. Thanks for shaping it up and making it flow!

Hey Donald, That is actually the question that Stephen and I are struggling with right now. I have not been able to find a Donald Livingston born around that time in any of the census information after they landed in the US in 1851. I wondered if it was the Donald Livingston married to Aunt Betty wh...

Donald,

Like Stephen has said, thank you so much for all of the information, the hard work and the link the pictures. I have a deadline at work so I am reading but not able to really process and respond right now. But i will. So glad Stephen is in on this project

Donald, You got sucked into the genealogy black hole last night didn't you? ;) I am still processing all of the information you wrote about yesterday BUT based on you confirming Duncan the lawyer as being the author I am thinking that Duncan's father, Hugh (Effie's Hugh who died in Scotland) and Bet...

Donald, So I have been chatting with Stephen, my cousin, and he has a letter dated 1899 from Duncan Livingston to my great+ aunt, Anna Livingston. He went back to Lochaline and visited and wrote her a letter. He confirms Hugh (Effie's husband) is in fact buried in that cemetery. He calls Anna his co...

Donald, I will do whatever I can to help out. Just tell me if I can do anything. My birth father wasn't a Livingston but my birth mother's ancestry goes back to one of Effie's children, Catherine. She's my great, great, great grandmother. She married a McGuire and moved to Indianapolis. It's just in...

It'd be interesting to know how many of those Livingstons immigrated to the southern Ohio area between 1840 and 1880. Those two counties we've talked about, Scioto and Lawrence, were big furnace counties. It's just sad to think of all that happened to the Highlanders between the battle of Culloden a...

Hey Don, With some help on Ancestry.com, I think I have found the children of Hugh and Ruhama Dichell. He died around 1873 but he had Effie, Selina, John and Frank with her. (Hugh is Effie and Hugh's oldest). So there are two boys on that branch of the family. I am trying to locate them as well. I'l...

Kyle,

I did Ancestry.com's DNA test. I'm not sure what kind of test.

Donald, So if I am following the information you are giving, do we think Archibald Livingston who was the father of Hugh who married Effie (who moved with her kids to Lawrence County, OH) is a cousin of Duncan Livingston ? Archibald was born in 1780 or at least that is the information I have. Or is ...
