I am also of Scottish decent, but have never gotton into the "skirt". Maybe its the leggs or the fact that I always liked the support:laughing:
Which part of Scotland were your ancestors from, do you know ?

Don't really know. I do know my grandfather landed in Nova Scotia from some where in Scotland. He married late in life (around 48) he died at age 60, in 1932. We have been unable to get any information due to a records fire. We do not even know the correct spelling of our name. It may have been Nickerson or Nickelson, both show up on old papers. That is not how we spell it now. Oh well..

Ah, that is a shame you can't find more information.

There is nothing interesting about my history really, the Murray family has always been in Scotland as far as I know...

Hmm... Perhaps I'll have to try one of those online ancestry things some time.
