Alexander Jack was my GR. Grandfather. He had a brother Peter, William and a sister Isabelle. He had a nephew Alexander, who was shot down during a war? I have letters that his niece sent him from home, around 1930.Her name was Margaret Sutherland. I believe he had more siblings. According to family rumor one went to South Africa, one to Australia, and Alexander to the USA. He was from Wick.

Does anyone know this family? I am looking for more information on the family. We know very little about earlier generations.

I was mistaken about the authors of the letters I have. They are Isabele Sutherland and Margaret Downer, not Margaret Sutherland. Both from the 1930's)

We are descended from his younger brother Alexander b1806 who married Ann Nicholson. Do you have any information on them? I think the Jack's were the children on John Jack and Margaret Rosie, does this fit with your information? Thank you Jenny

I had nothing on this couple before I met another scottish cousin. Together we have very little. What we have is below. I have been concentrating on the American side and his ancestors. Let me know if you would like that info.
