James DOUGLAS - Ancestry

At the bottom of the page there is an index of surnames in this chart, or use your browser's find button. The site search box at the top of my main genealogy page may also be of some use. I also have a list of my published and online sources.

The chart is quite simple - each person's parents are indented one step further right, with the male line running up and the female line running down. All dates are birth and death dates, where known.
Most of the links are internal, taking readers to other related family lines elsewhere on the charts. Many ancestors occur many times over. The links marked with a * lead to external databases elsewhere on the Internet (although this data should be treated with caution unless it mentions its sources). I suggest that you save these pages to your hard drive if you intend look at them in detail (the links should still work if you put them in the same folder).
Eventually, I hope to add source notes and biographical details for each person on the chart.

Text in italics shows that the link is uncertain (for example, there is sometimes disagreement over the maternity of children born to men known to have had more than one wife; or over whether an heir was a son or grandson). Links with dotted lines (: or ..) show known illegitimacy. Text in purple shows a king or other ruler. NN means that the person's first name is not known.
