My National Geographic "DNA"says my ancesters are out of Ethiopia 179,000 yrs. ago.. to Iran, Anatolia to St. Petersburgh,
Russia area and up into Finnland.
My family are McGowans out of the Hebridies. I found out that they came out of the Highlands around the 13th cent. to Ulster. They were recruited because they were Scots(Old Irish), Picts, & Norse. I think the term is "broken men", and of used because their clan ties were not as strong. Were Chiefs under Clan O'Reilly.
Your pages help me make the connection.. thank you for all your work... Kathryn Eilean McGowan-Lee
