My name is Sarah and I’m the Project Coordinator for the Scotland Project. As you may have heard, we have merged the Scottish Clans project into the Scotland Project. I am contacting you today to find out if you are interested in continuing with us under this new format. If you would like to go forward on the Scottish Clans Team, please reply and let me know which clans you have been working on or would like to work on. I look forward to hearing from you.

Thank you for your replay as to whom the father of the three brothers, David 1750 Matthew 1752 and John Gray b 1-18-1761 was. You stated Sarah Barber (although many of my cousins agree she is the father of the three brothers). I am thinking Matthew may have had three wives with Sarah being the #3 wife. I have Sarah being born 12-Feb-1744 died as Sarah Bullard in 1836. Married Matthew Gray 30 Oct 1766 That would be 5 years after Matthew's youngest son John b. Jan 1761. (My Ancestry DNA (David Gray) States Matthew had 5 children. So far I have matched John Gray b.1740 1/2 brother from 1st wife unk 2nd wife UNK I have David Gray b 1750 Matthew 1752 Archibald b 1754 and John Gray 1761 Mathew and Sarah Barber's Childrern James b 1768 d 1774 and Deidemiah (Gray) Wilson 69-1836
I am your cousin with the shared ancestor of John (Radclyffe) Radcliffe Esq. [Radclyffe-20]

As part of a revitalization effort for the France Project, we are checking-in with members to see if they are planning to remain active in the project and where their interests lie.
If you are planning to remain active, please click here to submit a short Member Interest Form to help us organize and coordinate collaboration.
If you have other obligations at the moment and would like to be removed from the project at this time, you will always be welcome to rejoin if you find yourself with more time and interest later.
We thank you for your contributions and hope that you are enjoying exploring your roots.
Please respond by commenting on my profile or sending a private message. I look forward to hearing from you.
Thanks Kyla
I havent heard back from you about the break up of the United Kingdom Project. I hope all is well with you. I assume you dont wish to join any of the country-level projects at present, and will go ahead and remove the United Kingdom badge. If you wish to join England, Scotland, Wales or Ireland in the future, you would be most welcome to do so via the respective G2G sign-up post.
Many thanks for all your contributions,
Susie :-)
We realise the time has come to dissolve the UK Project in favour of the individual country projects of England, Scotland, Wales and Ireland.
We are checking in with all UK badge holders to find out which country project(s) you would like to be in so you can collaborate with other members, have the opportunity to select which team(s) you would like to join, and so we can ensure you have all the correct badges.
Please respond by PM to let us know which country project(s) you would like to be in. Please dont assume we know. We are effectively starting from scratch to make sure no one falls through the cracks.
Once you have done this, the Coordinator for Membership in the relevant country project(s) will be in touch to help get you situated.
Many thanks,
Susie
