AULD Family Tree

with links to British India

 

Hello, I was surprised to find that both my father and I have Indian ancestry (via DNA test - Ancestry). Following various threads back to my great great grandmother I found that her father was listed as Robert Gordon on her death certificate. I am wondering if he was a descendant of Susannah (described as a Native). My great great grandmother (Mary Anne)  was born at sea en route either to or from India. My great grandmother was then born on Corfu - well traveled family for those days.
Just wondered if anyone could help to establish  just exactly where our Indianness has come from! We had thought the dark skin and eyes was Spanish, but definitely not. Kind regards, Jill Turnbull  davietim@hotmail.com
