Hi Stephen,

Welcome to XMarks from the other side of the Atlantic in Norfolk, England. For your own peace of mind, take everything you hear or see about clans with a pinch of salt.

Regards

Chas

Good morning kind sir and welcome to the rabble! And rabble it is!

Be kind to your self and don't get discouraged in your hunt for you heritage.

Don't be suprised by what you will find either.

Many here have searched for years, and still do today, it can be fun if you don't get to serious over it.

Hello Stephen,

and a warm Celtic

from Boston, Massachusetts.

I am an American of Scot, Dutch, Irish, German, French, English descent. I am proud of my heritage of plain American mongrel. I do hold a special place for my grand-mother's roots to clan MacNeil. The chase of genealogy is as addictive as the kollecting of kilts. Our forum here is primarily about the wearing of the kilt. Welcome to the rabble. If the Cunningham side of your family is the one of your personal best interest, then wear the Cunningham tartan. For the beginning kilt, look to any of the forum sponsors, as all have great customer service. Peruse the sites and get into a kilt, then proudly go forth.
I have made note of your ancestor trace back to Scotland, and congratulate you on getting that far back. I will keep it in mind as I dig through the auld archives in Scotland in my research journeys.
As my avatar shows, I wear the Highland dress proudly. I do this as an everyday kilted person here in Boston. I am one of several guys in a kilt that ride the public transit here. We are getting known by our tartans.

from Scotland (Edinburgh to be exact). Why don't you come and live and work here, raise a family maybe, pay some taxes

? Then you will be a Scot.

Hello and welcome from Savannah, GA. Proud to be a product of the American melting pot; prouder still that many of my "ingredients" came from Scotland.
