How to use this Page

Please link any GENI Profiles with links to Dumfries-shire to this project.

Note People with links to Dumfries-shire can be linked to the project but not necessarily added to the list below.

People connected to Dumfries-shire can also be linked to the following projects.

Clans

Historical and Political people

- accommodated by the project Historic Dumfries-shire (Link to follow) which covers the History of Dumfries-shire and historical/political people. Some of these are also listed in the Famous people category.

Famous or Notable People

Those people of note with connections to the county are listed below. Some of these connections are a little tenuous - counties like to lay claim to people of renown! Please visit Dumfries-shire - Famous People and add them to the listing there.

Emigrants

People from Dumfries-shire who went to the "New world" and were early progenitors in those countries. Where the earliest ancestor is known please add them to the list of "Dumfries-shire families on Geni" below if that was their roots, or to the appropriate county project.

Where the earliest known ancestor is the emigrant add them to the list below. In some cases if there is a project that covers them in detail please link the project.
