John Cairncross born circa 1683 in Scotland.
The following family tree was sent to me by a nice lady from Australia. What is remarkable is that this very long family tree, incorporates 3 of the family trees already within this site. However, there are subtle differences which leave me uncomfortable about deleting the existing ones. The trees in question are: 1. Family of William Cx. of East Lothian, 2. William Cx. born 1759, in Prestonpans, and 3. Thomas Cx., 1800-1866, of Swellenham.
The other fascinating thing about this tree is the family line now goes way back to 1683, making it the earliest actual tree on the site.
I am therefore adding this tree and leaving the others intact.
