This is a transcript of a photocopy obtained from the Dobie Clan of North America. The transcript is of a hand-drawn chart done by Percy Dobie, 122 Vicars Cross, Chester, and dated 13 March, 1944. Some of his handwriting is hard to read, and due to my unfamilliarity with British place names, I have guessed at some of the names if I couldn't find them on my large-scale road map of Scotland.
May 24, 2002 : Allan Anderson of Liverpool, UK, kindly provided me with an extensive update on the Anderson connection found on this page. In addition, he provided corrections to many of the geographic names I had previously guessed at. A link to the several pages of his updates is found below in this list. Unfortunately, Allan's contact information and website no longer work.
