Welcome to my family history home page, which is dedicated mainly to the Downie name
Here are two links to the pages containing information about my Downie ancestors from 1743
and many others who married into my family:
George Downie's Ancestor Chart
I live in Carlisle, England and in August 2000 I visited Ian Downie's web site at:
He has proved to be a great help and inspiration to me in searching for my ancestors.
Although many of the pages are incomplete I will update them when information is available.
Here are links to other websites
Clan Lindsay Society of Australia
Graeme Gordon who lives in Perth, Western Australia. Our Ancestors have a direct link. (website recovered from the Internet Archive but doesn't work properly)
Robert Downie who lives in Dunoon, Scotland. His website (rescued via the Internet Archive) includes a history of the Downie name.
This website disappeared from the internet some time between February 2006 and January 2007 and has been reconstituted, as far as possible, on Ian Downie's website.
I am unable to verify much of the information in these pages, as George did the original research. However, I believe that he based his information on sound research.
