Subject: Family Ties

Hello. My name is Deren Nickerson. I'm 16 years old, and recently found out that I am almost half scottish. My grandfather on my mother's side is Robert MacDonald Lacey, we are of the Clan MacDonald. I wish to see how far back my family goes, to see some of my elder blood relatives, but I have a problem. My grandfather left home when he was very young, and changed his name so many times that not even he knew his own real name. He only remembers that his last name was MacDonald. Nor does he know his father's name, and he is now deceased, so I can't pursue him for any further info. My only source of information is a book of family history that is possibly in my uncle's posession, about the MacDonald family, but I am not positive if he even has it, or whether or not I'll be able to borrow it. I have taken a deep interest in my Scottish heritage lately, as I'm travelling there this summer, and I wish to know more about my family. If anyone could email me or respond to this post with any info on how I can track this info down, it would be greatly appreciated. If it helps in any way, I live in Alberta, Canada. My mother, Caroline Lacey, was born in British Columbia, Canada. Her mother is Darlene Wellwood, and her father is Robert MacDonald Lacey. That is all I know.

Thank you,
Deren
