Hi Dizzi.

Can I suggest "Trying to find" board?

There you can be specific to a name/time/place.

Dizzi.

Is this still an open board?

Can I suggest that you might rename, using a time scale!

The title is a bit desceptive?

LanarkshireLassie, I think you're missing Dizzi's point. (Don't know what that is about an open board.)

Dizzi has found a book that identifies many Scots who emigrated to Poland centuries ago. (And isn't that just an interesting turn-about?)

She's offering the info for anyone who might be interested in / affected by it.

A lot of Scots immigrated to Canada in the early 19th century, and they were certainly "agents of change" here.

Thanks to Janey.

I had been missing the obvious!

Sometimes we read a post, but do not take it's content in!

Sorry
