I was searching for Pastor Sheila’s email so I could send a Merry Christmas to her… but found your blog instead! I was actually at Ivan and Sheila’s for the cricket match… the city was crazy busy that night! I am also one of the students from Vanguard college, but I do not remember meeting you… I loved my time in India, and all the people…

Dear Roofing Repair Company,

I suspect you’d have a lot of fun getting a contract to repair a hammer-beamed roof!! Those don’t come along every day.

Great article.

I enjoyed the history behind leaving the old growth trees to grow large for masts and roof beams.

Comment on Ancestral roots in Paisley, Scotland by John Pellowe

AJ, as I recall, there were a number of grandchildren of the settlers who moved to the United Staes from the families that came in 1821. If you haven’t done so already, the Mormons have the best genealogical records anywhere. There seems to be a lot of websites with free access to their records. Here’s one: http://www.ancestorhunt.com/mormon_church_records.htm. You can search Scotland, Canada and the U.S. there. All the best!

Good evening, Mr. Pellowe;
I received the book today on Scottish settlers in North America. Regrettably, it didn’t have the names of other family members as I had hoped, so I’ll continue my search for documentation to verify. If you have any other suggestions; I’m all ears. I just know I’m on the right trail. I greatly appreciate your sharing of the info with fellow genealogists. I’m sure there are many who have sent blessings your way. AJ

Congratulations John! I’m looking forward to the read. The subject matter is very timely for a number of churches I’m connected with who are wading into the church-agency waters.

Well Mr. Pellowe, I was so enthralled by your story, I didn’t even connect the name. Your research is very well known and I feel very privileged to have had the opportunity to learn more about my family through your history heirloom. I had come across your database only a couple of weeks ago which fueled the engines to verify whether or not the William Lambie on your list is my ggg grandfather. I ordered the book “Scottish Settlers in North America” as I read it might have the names of the family members who travelled with William. Those family names alone are all I need as confirmation. I can hardly wait for the arrival of the book. Just think: our ancestors may have had one or two of those political banters for which they Paisley Scots are so famous!

Unfortunately, I recently moved to a very touristy area which has little to no interest in genealogy, so there isn’t much available here. Thanks to generous people such as yourself; the internet has become my most valuable tool for digging up artifacts. I’ll let you know as soon as I find out something new.
