    Ancestry?

    "Then there were the Americans (as well as others) who would tell me that their ancestors had been one of the pilgrim fathers (or similar), yet somehow had also been killed at Culloden. They didn't seem to have spent any time looking at the impossibly factor regarding dates!"

    What's so impossible about that? I can trace back to the Pilgrim Fathers (from East Anglia in England), twelve generations on my father's side; and to soldiers named Campbell (who married and had children before getting killed) at Culloden, seven generations back on my mother's side.

    The truth can be stranger than fiction, because fiction has to make some kind of sense.
    Ruadh gu brath!
