Small world indead. We are all related, through marriage I just can't get the middle
pieces. My mother often spoke of Uncle Polar ( pronounced ?) being killed in the Life
boat during the fishing disaster. My mothers home she gre up in 9 Old Shore is listed on
the Sotland Historic Register, (new news I just discoverd) I have a feew pictures of some
of the Swankie children, my mother told me we were cousins.
I hope I can sort all of it out. Andrew and Isabella Cargill were my grandparents. I am
first generation American my parents met and married in WW2 and my mother served also. I
have a picture of my mother in uniform but when writing to find out more about her service
I could not find anything. Her brothers were Alexander,Andrew, and David Cargill. My
mother was Betty. Her marriage license listed her name as Betsy.
