I started researching my paternal grand mothers name(MARQUIS) as I have always 
been curious where it came from.3 years down the line I am still not sure.
What I do know about the Marquis families,is that they have been fishermen in 
Tarbert Loch Fyne Argyleshire since the early 19th century.

When stuck on paternal line,I started with my maternal line,(Lees)everything 
going great until I found out that my mother Jean,s (Jeanette)Grandparents on 
her mother,s side were both from travelling families.(Watson and Wilson,s)the 
Watson,s havent been so bad ,but the Wilson,s I keep hitting brick walls,I 
think if I knew where my grandmother Mary Wilson was born that would help,
(Wishful thinking lol).

Started researching my husbands side of family when stuck at my own,found out 
things that surprised my husband and some of his family.

This website will be an on going site,so feel free to visit often. and good 
luck with your own research.
