This site contains names, and details for many ancestors of our families. One major  interest area is that of the descendants of James Lyle (born circa 1744) and Elizabeth  Wilson (1752 - 1844) of Ayrshire but mostly Renfrewshire, and with some focus on John  Lang  and Elizabeth Lyle.  The Langs are "numerous" and tricky to track!  The latest  updates include lots of dates - several have still to be verified.

A number of side families are also included, e.g. the Adam and Dick families who emigrated  to NSW in the mid-1800s, and the relationships with Paine, Cadell, Benson, and Pye, well- known families in the Hawkesbury and surrounding areas.  Oatt, Orr and Campbell also  feature.

I have taken care to try and respect the privacy of all living individuals. In the  unlikely event that you come across anything that should not be published, please let me  know immediately, as this will be an oversight on my part.  I hope you enjoy looking round  the site and please contact me if you have any questions or corrections, or additional  information.

For those who wish to understand the selection criteria on this site, I include cousins  (up to sixth), and their spouses. I also include parents of spouses, and with a number of  exceptions, I exclude siblings of spouses.  I hold information on extended families of  Paine, Pye, Cadell, Acland, Ovans, and McKillop families.  Please contact me if you have  interest in any of these families.

One final note that Tribalpages does have a good user interface for surfing around a  family, but a constraint is that only one census and one occupation is held per  individual.  Tribalpages normally selects the first (earliest) record. In many cases, my  own records include several recordings of census and occupation, and therefore the  information shown here is not complete. I have lots of findagrave records which don't appear to transfer via gedcom and are failing to show up here.  

Thanks
 Stuart
