People move around and live in different countries from time to time...
When did they live in Scotland?
Where did they live in Scotland?
What was their religion?
What was their trade/profession?
What were their birth dates?
What was their death dates?
What was their marriage dates?
Were they college educated?
Did they serve in any of the Scottish regiments?

These are the genealogical questions you should ask your family members.
If they lived in Scotland for more than one generation, then they (someone) definitely married someone with a Scottish surname. This will give you so much more to go on in terms of deciding which tartan, district, or clan you choose to celebrate. You don't have to follow your male line.


A 4 generation tree will have 8 different surnames, giving you 8 different possibilities.
