    Thank you for adding me as a friend.
    The Reids that I am looking for are Thomas Reid and Ann(nee Ferrier or Ferria) They were married in 1889 March 30 in Dundee.My grandmother Helen (Ferrier) Reid was born 1897 13th June in District of St. Clement in the Burgh of Dundee. In spite of all this infomation I can't find them anywhere, mainly due to the fact that so many have the same name.
    Are any of your Reids from the same are or have same names? I think there may have been a sister Margaret but am not sure.
    Happy searching.

    Thanks Dave - to be honest I just search everywhere for my Wadwell surname as it is so rare. Most of the others are comparitively (sometimes too) common. I am following particular ancestors and their descendants and go where ever the leads take me. Haven't as yet found any that lead to South Africa.

    Watts is not my original family name. My "watts" ancestors were from France, named Vauthrin, but (for reasons unknown) adopted the surname Watts upon arriving in the USA.
