    I am confused, you get your Scottish blood through your father, Jenkins senior?

    Yes, the story is extremely confusing, but my Great(x4) Grandparents (fathers side), moved from Scotland to England, and from there migrated to America (through Ontario).

    But it has no clan affiliation? I am just confused, is there a surname in your father's line that has affiliation with a clan at all? I would say whatever you are drawing your heritage from to begin with would be the path sooner sought.

    I've never been able to look that far back, overtime as I get more research I guess we will find out.

    Well as the gents on here have pointed out to me several times...sometimes without asking! It is more traditional to go with your father's line. But, you will get about every answer on here!

    My best advice would be to talk to some people nearest you, maybe at a games event or gathering? Good luck brother!
