Descendants of Angus GILLIES and Marion Sarah MATHESON


The research on this family is being carried out in an attempt to identify the biological parents of Florence Mae METCALFE* 1915-2005. Since the adoption of Florence was a family 'secret' there is no one alive today, that we can find, who can provide this information.

Florence's daughter Kathy WATSON* has had her DNA analyzed and this has produced some apparent cousins. Some on her father's side, which we can identify, and hopefully some are on her mother's side. The difficulty here is that we do not have any surnames to start with or compare to.

The best candidate so far is Patricia ROE. Her 1st cousin Robert NESTOR on her mother's side is also a 3rd cousins to Kathy. This effectively eliminates Patricia's father's family from the bloodline. The challenge will be to identify the 'common' ancestor to Kathy and Patricia. Since they are 3rd cousins anyone of Patricia's gg grandparents could be the common ancestor.

Patricia's mother Jessie Laverne MacINTOSH 1908-2004 and Florence Mae ???? 1915-2005 would have been 2nd cousins which implies that their common ancestor would be their great grandfather. If we look at Jessie's Pedigree Chart we find these greatgrandfathers John ?? MacINTOSH; Angus GILLIES; John MacLEOD; & Angus GRAHAM and one of their grandchildren should be either mother or father to Florence.

I have created these Journals in an attempt to identify all those grandchildren and narrow down my search. Likely subjects, both male or female, would have been born born approx 18 - 30 years before Florence's birth in 1915, say 1885 to 1897. Also not likely married before 1915.

Please note, this is a work in progress and not all the connetions have been proven. I am open to any and all, questions, comments and corrections, Case.
