Harrison Family Tree has now been renamed Family Trees and includes the 3 main families which make up our Family Tree - Harrison/Guthrie, Evans/Griffiths and Williams/Tomlinson.
The following Family Trees have now been updated:- Clayton, Callaghan, Guthrie, Ithell, Mercer & Wright. Freeman tree has been removed as they are not direct descendants.
I have added 5 new Genealogy Reports for the following families:- Evans, Mills, Williams, Ithell & Clutton.

A Family tree for the Ithell Family has now been added.
As you can see I’ve upgraded my family history website. What’s new :- We now have Genealogy Reports, these have replaced Census records, these reports contain all the information on the families i.e. Births, Marriages, Deaths, Addresses & Occupations in a Pedigree order. Kinship Report contains every person in my tree that is a direct ancestor of my Grandchild Jamie Lyn, giving the relationship, whether close or distant i.e. 2x Grandfather, 3x Grand Uncle or 4x Cousin 2x Removed etc. Maps have now improved using Google Earth, so you can zoom straight down onto the address and use Satellite View for an overhead picture of the Street/Road. Some names have now been removed, as they were not correct and some new names have appeared. Although my old website hadn’t been updated for nearly a year, I have still been doing research and this new site now has some of that research included, but there is still a lot more to add, keep checking the ‘What’s New for updates.

William & Margaret Strachan are not the parents of Jessie Strachan the wife of John Callaghan. The marriage certificate shows that her father’s name was Robert Strachan and the only Jessie Strachan with a father named Robert was married to Elizabeth Paterson on the 1841 Scotland Census. I am not 100% sure yet that this new Jessy is the correct ancestor as I can’t find her on the 1851 census for Scotland or England. I have found the new Robert & Elizabeth Strachan on World Trees on Ancestry.co.uk so I have been able to go back to the end of the 1600’s. I have removed the following names Knight, Duthie, Chism & Galloway and replaced them with Paterson, Loch/Locke (not sure of the correct spelling), Gray & Scott. The main Family Tree has now been updated as well as the descendants trees (Names).
