	[1]	Charles McHardy's 1866 Family Tree
		This extensive tree, put together by a member of the Auchallater branch in 1866, provides an excellent starting place for family research. Note, however, that dates are not always accurate when compared to the OPRs. Charles also included many footnotes about individual characters and historic events, and also charted several other McHardy family groups not related to the "Buies." Hearty thanks to Anna McHardy of New Zealand for typing up Charles' original notes and making his data available to us all.
