I have just joined the Genes Reunited site, rather exciting looking at names of people with same surname - very excited that numerous may be connected to our family. Will definitely be spending some time on this site. Lynette

thanks for the welcome - definitely is fun - true could be additive but finding relations on the other side of the world is great. I live in New Zealand and it is lovely to have a chat, send emails etc. - sure is a break from having to go to work. look forward to more.

Betty Boo in Dundee, I have been to Dundee. Stayed with my cousin Dr Bill Guthrie in April 2000. Sadly he has since passed away but we did enjoy our visit to Dundee, also have family in Forfar, Kirriemuir, Edinburgh and Newtyle. Loved our time in Scotland.

Picton mean anything?

Lynette

Lynette Report 7 Oct 2006 04:32

Hi, Picton is about 5 hours travel time from our home in Rolleston. Do not know anyone in Picton but is a nice quiet place, this is where the interislander boat between north and islands leaves from. When travelling to the North Island by boat this is usually the only time I have been to Picton.

Hi Lynette - and welcome to the boards and this mad hobby of rellie hunting. I too have found family down in NZ - both north and south island. I see you have family in Forfar - that is where my Hubby is from - any questions about the area - more than happy to help.
