This family history file shows the descendants of William Blackwood, a bleacher from Strathblane in Stirlingshire (c 1751 - 1846), and Thomas McMurday (various spellings for this line include McMurdo, McMurdie and McMurdy), mid 1700's from Keir, Dumfriesshire. And, of course, many various other family lines connected with their descendants. I am indebted to the contributions to this database made by Margaret Black (Paisley), Denise Adamson (NZ), Joan Whiston (Winnipeg), and many others. All living people have been excluded from the database to the best of my knowledge. I have not included sources, but would be happy to answer queries on them.
The link above to Quilter tree will take you to my wife's family tree, including Quilter, Pethig and Johnson.
