Thanks Ann, I won't give up. This has got me intrigued. It's the same with my mum's side on her father's side Steward/Stewart. Her father told her that there is a connection to Mary Queen of Scots so I'm also trying to see about that. Please feel free to view my tree, you are more than welcome :-) xxx

this site is a real pain!!!

what is the forename of your great grandfather?

Kevin

Kevin Report 10 Apr 2012 00:23

Ann, I'm sorry I wanted to know everything I could about her e.g dates, places. I was given the challenge to see if I was related to her. I really don't know where I'm going to start. The Fitton line on my tree is off my father's side, they all came from Manchester, so far the furthest I've gone back to is 1849. The Fittons in my tree are: myself b 1959, my dad, John Keith b 1934, my grandad, John Kenneth b 1910, my great grandad, John b 1876, my great great grandad b 1849.
Any help would be appreciated.
