About Mitchell of Kirkintilloch Tree
This tree has been under development for a fairly short time.
It is based on John Anderson Mitchell and his wife Irene Cameron Brydon.
The Mitchell side goes back through Dougans and Milroys from Wigtownshire and
Anderson / Stirling / Prymrois from Edinburgh. There are a few marriages
involving spouses from ireland. The early milroys were Covenanters some of
whom were exiles as slaves to the West Indies.
The Brydens, spelled with an -e- until late 19th century, were mainly miners
from south Ayrshire - Dailly. Some went to work in the mines of Pennsylvania
(Scranton) forming a branch of the family there. Others moved to Glasgow to
work in engineering or shipbuilding.
