Hi! I'm researching the family history of both myself and my wife - trying to keep track of all the various lines is quite complex but it does have the advantage of always having something else to research when one particular brick wall proves too much...

My side of the tree:

Cumming
From the area around Forres, Nairn & Elgin (just to the east of Inverness).
Surnames: Cumming, Sutor, Mackenzie, Urquhart, More, Fraser, Mackenzie, Macdonald, Bremner
Macleod
From the Point district of the Isle of Lewis in the Western Isles (Ross & Cromarty).

One half is entirely from Lincolnshire - the other from Norfolk.

Norfolk Surnames: Wells (Dereham), Learner, Allan, Rix, Hawes, Meachen (Yaxham), Baxter (Hingham), Bear (Beeston)
