Scotland

I have been strangely fascinated with Scotland, and I knew for a fact that the McGregors were Scottish, but I doubted anything else I figured the named conveniently all ended up leading me to Scotland because the records were good, but the more I search things the more Scottish I find that I am. My Mom's mom was a McGregor, who only rece4ntly came to America, but ends up my mom's dad is Scottish, as well as Dutch and French. I figured DeMott was either from Holland or France, turns out to be both. I did not even know that I was French, but I keep finding French ancestry in almost every family line. Alright, now the kicker! It ends up my dad's mother whom I just thought was all German is actually descended from the Campbells of Argyleshire and were in a terrible feud with the McGregor clan. As I matched the timelines up, the families are both in the same places at the same times, so it is fortunate that my parents lived to meet and marry. Even Robert the Red or Roy McGregor had a Campbell mother and for a time hid by assuming her maiden name I am so glad his children lived long enough to marry and have children! They do keep much better records in Scotland, I struggle with England and Ireland and nearly give up on any Scandinavian lines, which really ought to be of most interest to me as they are my most recent nationality other than American or Canadian, and I have been told that I look most like my Great great Grandmother Anna Maria Anderson. Infact, I was too young to recall, but my grandparents found any image they could find of that family because they say I look exactly like I belong with other Anderson girls. Who although born in Sweden, were half finnish. Funny the best friend I had in highschool of all the exchange students was from Finland, too, and there was a guy who sat next to me in the international band that formed in Bavaria who played the trombone, too and he was from Finland. I love doing work with Scottish names/records! I mean really really love!
