Hi

Thanks for the info, may be valueable, as DNA tests reveal for this side, that there are 3 distantly related families, back some 600 years ago. One of them has done the paper work on their different surname and they trace back to the Picts, early Scots, they find. Interesting stuff.

I have also had some leads on a Flemish family in 1200 AD, with the Granary/Granery surname, and they were involved in the first Crusade. The name resides in Italy and France, perhaps from this Granery c: 1200 or from the otherwise occupational surname it may have been otherwise, or still. Someone resided next to, or was affiliated with a granary/granery. At that time, the name went into Grenier or Granier as well, if I recall, depending on who was doing the calling or naming perhaps. The Granery/ary name still is in these Latin European countries though. If anyone survived as Anglo in this name, from these possible lines, they may have been far and few between, and migrated to Scotland and Ire., although the Granery/ary name is said not to be found in Ire - but I wonder, since all Granary's so far, have either Scotland or Ire. in heritage. Thank you for your info, and I am sorry that I cannot put more to your line for Hugh, named after Hugh Cameron, I suppose?
Have you met up with or heard of Garry Granney, also in Western Au and I think Perth? May be distantly related to yours?
Regards
