The Clan McLea/Livingstone Forum

To All,  I greatly regret to hear the news of Robert's declining health. Though he had told me some time ago of his health problems, I am sorry to hear that he has taken a turn for the worse.  When I first began my internet research of my ancestor Miles Livingstone of Morvern/Isle of Lismore, it was Robert who took the time to write me a long e-mail introducing me to our probable highland Livingstone connection and what he knew about the Clan's history and origins.  Though we later profoundly disagreed on the Livingstone name origins, the focus of the DNA research and the importance of clan folklore and Livingstone legends to the clan research, we never let this intefere with our friendship and loyalty to the clan.  Robert's contribution to the McLea Livingstone site over the last few years was greatly appreciated by all of us family history researchers I am sure and I will miss not seeing his responses in the weeks to come.  with sympathy  Donald (Livingstone) Clink
