I am using this blog to record my genealogy research progress. My research at this point is concentrated in Tennessee, Virginia, Kentucky and Pennsylvania records. Since many of my ancestors ended up in the Midwest and West my research sometimes takes me in that direction. I also research Irish records.

Waiting for mail
I am waiting for a letter from the Scottish Genealogy Society in Edinburgh, Scotland. I found a reference to Catherine Fisher, wife of Hugh Forgey, in Donald Whyte's A dictionary of Scottish emigrants to the USA. A book I found at Google books. The author deposited his source material at the Scottish Genealogy Society library. I requested a copy of the source material for Catherine Fisher and her father Archibald Fisher. I am hoping it contains leads to more info. I am still searching for a record of the marriage of Hugh Forgey and Catherine Fisher, and a list of the names of their children. They lived in Hawkins County and Knox County, TN in the late 1700's and early 1800's.
