Blyth/Blythe, Scottish Borders from 1800

Classification: Query
Surnames: Blyth, Blythe
Over the last few years I have been researching the Blyth/Blythe families in the Scottish Borders, including the Yetholm Gipsies, and have gathered loads of info on the Blyths and their related families. My own Blyth ancestors originally came from Northumberland/Yorkshire and moved throughout the Scottish Borders from about 1800 mainly in the Yetholm, Galashiels and Selkirk areas and then to Edinburgh where they finally settled.
My 4ggrandfather, David Blyth, was the father of Charles Blythe I, King of the Gipsies 1847-61.
I would be pleased to share or exchange info with anyone who is also interested in the Blyths.
Regards,
Fran
