...and I'm sure I'll have a million questions. Some quick facts: I've got two "universal" kilts (Black Watch and Highland Granite - my fave) to my ownership. I'm constantly looking for a reason to wear them .

Currently, I'm tring to trace my roots a bit to see just how much Scottish blood (if any) I may have. None on my dad's side (all Dutch), but going back on my mother's side I'm running into English. Irish and (I presume) Scottish bloodlines. Anybody have any leads on how I might be able to research this a bit more. I'd like to see if there's a clan, but I'm not gonna be devastated if there is no family affiliation. Still....it would be cool to find out. Any help would be appreciated...

Either way, I'm having a blast doing the research....

Glad to be a part.....
