Our Scottish Ancestors

Our ancestors in Scotland have been traced back 8 generations. The majority of these ancestors lived in Perthshire, as farmers, ministers of the Church, and in towns as millers and grain merchants. The last generation in Scotland was that of John Ramsay who married Elisabeth Pearson in 1789 in Perth. Of their 7 children, only two married and had children. Of those two, the only one with current descendants is Dr David Ramsay, who emigrated to Australia.
 
There are other descendants in the UK of John Ramsay's brothers and sisters.
