Soo wierd as when i was smitten by this man several years ago i was DYING to find out more about his ancestry ...and here we have it!! Thanks for the insightful work btw he has physicality of his grandfather and grand mother on the heughan side as well as maternal side. Bet he has the blue fr that grndmother
I also found him to be incredibly charming when I discovered him last year. I am glad there are others out there who find ancestry to be fascinating!
Thanx for the research you have done! Also the presentation on film for
us was easily followed. Loved it. Look forward to more of your work. ❤ ❤❤
I am so glad you enjoyed it. Thank you so much!
You do understand that Outlander is a work of historical fiction written by Diana Gabaldon. Your research is through and interesting, nonetheless.
@@shannydavis1973 Thank you. I think that exploring the actual historical context of the show and the people who brought it to life makes it a little more interesting.
Thank you so much for this! You did an amazing job! My late Grandfather (my Gege as we lovingly called him) was involved heavily in his family genealogy, even participated in writing a family history book. After listening to you present Sam’s family history i now want to do more research on my own genealogy 🩷 much love from Canada 🇨🇦
@@lorikerr549 Thank you! I find doing family research makes you feel closer to your relatives, seeing their names as they pass through time. I hope that is true for you.❤️
This was a very interesting story, I am an Outlander fan and also greatly into Genealogy. I have English, Scotish, Irish, Welsh, & French heritage. My Rennick family line immigrated to Scotland (Glasgow area) from Ireland during the potato famine.♥
@@gopherlyn Thank you! I am also also descended from all of those places and have traced my Irish line back to the potato famine. Outlander made me more interested in my Scottish heritage, as indicated by DNA, but I have not been able to trace the family back to Scotland yet as they came through Canada and Ireland.
@@howyoucametobe3787 I think I'm lucky with the respect that, even though I am Canadian, my paternal grandmother was born in Scotland, Jane Rankin Rennick (1902-1987), but what I did not know until I started doing my Scottish research on www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk (great resource for Scottish research), was that her paternal grandfather, John Rennick (abt. 1834 - 1894) was born in Ireland. When I was about 11 years old, I made a comment about St. Patrick's Day and wearing green, my grandmother gave m a lecture about how she is Scottish not Irish. If she had only known. She had the thickest Scottish brogue, I have heard, sometimes it was hard to understand her. My paternal grandfather was born in England, my paternal grandparents were married in Golden, BC. My maternal grandfather's parents were born in England and my maternal grandmother's parents were Welsh and French, respectively. I have also had my DNA done.
I have similar background. English, Irish, Scottish. Last name Mackie.
@@sdwindycitygirl The Scottish surnaemes I have found so far are Aitchison, Rankin, Paterson, Stewart, Millar, Brown, Morrison, Thomson, Black, Walker, and Fife.
@@sdwindycitygirl Grant is the Scottish name I am unable to trace further.
Fabulous research thànks
@@mariemooney63 Thank you!
❤❤❤I love Samso much. He veey good actors so much. ❤❤❤
Wow this is so cool and interesting thank you so much for sharing this
@@user-et7ir2wr4q I am so glad you enjoyed it. Thank you!
@@howyoucametobe3787 welcome Sam Heughan is my favorite actor
Wow you have done your research❤
It was quite a bit; some people are really hard to trace back but Sam's ancestry was easy to follow, perhaps because his last name is less common.
In the Portsmouth NH cemetery the name appears on several graves, with a connection to Scotland
@@evegoodmon Really, I wonder how they might be connected.
Really interresting story
Thank you! I am so glad you enjoyed it.
Does Sam have all this information? I hope so.
Me too. Hopefully, he will come across this video.
Sam est il au courant de cette recherche personelle sur sa famille ?
@@user-jx6nh8ih9k I don't know. It is all based on public records.
Would have been nice to know a bit about his brother.
I try to respect the privacy of living family members who do not seek the spotlight.
Very interesting. I wish you would pronounce his last name correctly. It's FraZer. Not Frasher.
Quiero saber del libro que escribiste, si tiene traducción en español
Hola. El título del libro es Waypoints, My Scottish Journey. No sé si hay una traducción al español.
Learn to prounce the names of places before you start speaking its very annoying and un proffessional.
@@annemarieboyce683 This is something I am continually working on. Kirkcudbright did not lead me to Kirk-cue-bree.
No entiendo nada, y las fotografías tampoco
