| Hello! My Dad(my stepfather) Jeffrey Bird's 70th Birthday is June 17th, I would like to find out if he belongs to Clan Cameron or Macinnes. His Mother's name was Jessie Lonie, born in 1890 or 1892 parents, William Roy Lonie & (first name can't remember)Cunningham siblings, John, Jessie(Jeff's Mum) Phyliss (Jeff told by sister she was Jessie's daughter kept hush hush), Mary, and Edith (unsure if there were more). Jeff received a 130 year old picture of his Grandfather in full military scott dress uniform with bagpipes, corpral stipe, but we can't make out the pattern of the tartan, or the badges, because the photograph is so blurred. Jeff's Mum gave birth to him at the age of 44, his father's name was Walter Bird. Jeff was told his Grandfather William Lonie, and his son John made golf clubs. He was also told he helped build golf courses and was a member of one in St. Andrews, Fife. He did win a Totting Beck Championship when he played golf (not sure of spelling). I think his Grandfather had to be born late 1840's to early 1850's. I'm not sure if his Grandfather Lonie's name comes from Auchterlonie, or Macgillonie. They lived in St. Andrews in Fife, and moved to Kinghorn. Please help as I want to buy the correct clan crest badge. Thanks, Tracy. |
