Tumshie VS Jack O'lantern — Richard A. Walker, Tampa, Fl, Mon Nov 23 01:34

John, Davie, Beverly, Sally, et al, Thank you so much for you commentary on Tumshnie. I was able to see the Turnip Jack O'lantern on the Wikipedia and read more about Halloween and many food customs.

Hi there, I wanted to see if any MacGregor's here may have more information relating to my Mom's dad who had the surname MacGregor.

Frustrated; just part of the fun of searching you say, MacGregors marrying MacGregors, constant name changes, nothing like a challenge?
