Am trying to find my 3 David Gemmells and confirm the 1st one. I have gg grandfather David Gemmell, married to Mary Anderson, his father (ggg grandfather) David Gemmell, Married to Margaret Anderson and finally the mysterious first one (gggg) David Gemmell, wife unknown, supposedly son of John Gemmell and Janet Dunlop. I cannot find any David in the church records for them however. These Gemmells are supposedly of Temple Lands of Dunlop Scotland. Please help me crack this long nagging mystery.

Deane Gemmell

For any who may wonder. I actually went to Scotland in October of 2008 and was fortunate to link up with a cousin, Catherine Wilson, who was friends with another cousin William Campbell of Edinburgh who is the original Templehouse Gemmill researcher. He has been researching since he was 14 years old and is about to turn 80. He found a lost generation and corrected his previous work. He does his research the hard way, in the actual halls of records and places of origin. Gemmill became Gemmell and for those wanting to trace this family from Dunlop and have a most likely correct tree please see Gemmell Family Tree. I have recorded this branch of the family back to 1474.
