That triggered my memory of a strong family English line, the Brett/Britt line which is also probably of French Origin.
So, with increasing knowledge I've gone from believing my family is Scottish to now believing we're French-Scandanavian....
The Gordons WERE French. Adam De Gordon was a Norman who supported King David I in the 12th century
