possible relations
Hi, I am not at all definite but I will contact my friend in america who has done extensive searching on the Eckford family name. We might possibly be related, as most Eckfords from that area are somewhere down the line! We are one of the few Eckford family's actually left in Britain, (alas not Scotland, although we might possibly go home one day) as everyone else seems to have moved abroad! ha
Do you have any more details such as her parents names or perhaps siblings? It would be great help to matching her family tree up if we did.
regards
Suzy
