Back to my ancestry research what I found going back was unbelievable and while my parents told me the right countries for most there were a lot of things I found that they did not know. Now that I have the names I want to research more. Love to download the pictures of the people and the facts.

I did it on ancestry by just going back forever and finding it. And I found beyond that that my mother and father's families both started from the same group of people. I am still learning and have found several lines that are from Scotland and as soon as my son gets the disks loaded on my new office jet I will figure out more lines. But I am still hoping that some of you might know of the McAllisters from S.Carolina and Arkansas.

My paternal grandmother always told me that because she has the last name Duncan on our family tree, that meant we were descended from King Duncan. It will be interesting to read the lineage to see if there might be any truth to the rumour(s).

This is really wild but both of my parents have ancestors that go back to Charlamine and the Scottish kings and some more of that ancestry. Will get that book is it on line or on a reader?

James P. LaLone posted his lineage from Malcolm III of Scotland, and at the moment I am reading The "Red and White" Book of Menzies. It is fascinating and speaks about Malcolm(s) ,MacBeth and of course the origans of Clan Menzies.  It is hard to read at times, but worth the download. I can't recall if I found it on Google books or Amazon. Full of Scottish history. My third great grandmother was a Menzies from possibly Autchengraven, Perthshire, Scotland.

Sarah Hood,

I am posting in the discussions forum an attachment showing descent form Duncan I, father of Malcolm III, who is also my ancestor several times. Jim.

I just found out that I am decended from Malcolm III of Scotland who was King of Scotland from 1058 -1093, He was one of the people that Shakespeare wrote Macbeth about (who knew that those were real people) He also was involved with the people of Orkney. I have many Scott lines in my family but just found this one and am interested in learning more.
