TO: Alan Gaines, Sydney Australia… Welcome to the family - what a small world it is! I am 4-5 generations from Lecretia Hanson who married Samuel Fowler Dickinson (who are the paternal grandparents of writer/poet Emily Dickinson). I’d enjoy hearing from you. Feel free to contact me at sheila.beane@yahoo.com. Best regards, Sheila

Hello: My Wife was a Wilson. Her Great Grandmother was a Sandilands. That makes my wife a very Great Granddaughter of Robert the Bruce. Princess Jean Stewart the daughter of King Robert the Second married Sir James Sandilands. His Grandmother was the widow of The Bruce’s brother and the sister of the Good Douglas (the Black Knight). The Sandilands still live in Mid-Calder at Calder House. It was the property of the Knights of Saint John, and was retained by Sir James the last Grand Master of the Order. John Knox was a friend of the family and held his first Protestant Communion at the family Kirk. William Wallace’s only surviving signature is on a letter written on the family estate.
Tanya’s Grandfather Henry Wilson told her she was Scottish, but he never made the Sandilands connection as he followed the Wilson Line. We wish he could have know his royal linage.
Tanya is a collector of Scottish Highland Pistols, so I guess she still feels like a Gunn. Either Peace or War.

Sorry, forgot to mention that my husband’s name is Sean, and that our last name comes from his step-father who legally adopted Sean and his sister when he married Sean’s mother.

Greetings all! My husband is descended from Clan Gunn, and not even all that distantly; his maternal grandmother’s maiden name was Gunn (her first name is Della, she was born in Missouri, and married Walter Shelstad, Sr.), and her father was James Gunn. That’s as far back as I know, I have to make time to see if Grandma can give me any other names.
