Neeland

[Ghostman432]

I started this a few years ago, then we moved, and then a puter crash. So, I'm back. I have had several returns that I just found, and I thank those people. My Neeland history book shows many interesting things with my name. "Neeland, Cleland, Kneeland"....An ancient female cousin married the famed, "William Wallace", and this was way befor the movie, haha, circa, "1931. Author's name is. Lewis Neelands from Toronto.
Our clan is one of pride, and some famous folks in Scotish history. I'm so proud to be Scotish. I want to visit Edinburgh so very bad. I'm getting old, and money is a problem, but before I die, I want to walk with my son where our ancestors' walked.........God bless the kind folks that worked with me before.............Herbert W. Neeland II

No doubt you will think your Neeland book is 100% accurate... I hope you won't be too upset if others (me included) think it is 100% something else, especially the bit about your ancient female cousin!

I doubt that very much; most people who come on here and claim to be descended from or somehow related to William Wallace (or that other constant favourite, Robert the Bruce) won't change their minds just because the likes of me thinking they are either too gullible to realise they are being misled or they are talking a load of BS. I don't know if the person above believes the claim in their book, but I doubt many people would take it (the book and its author) seriously!
