If you are related to a McClard, McLard or McLaird
In the early 1700's, Scotland's Daniel McClard escapes to Virginia one
step ahead of the authorities in a dispute over some missing cattle (so goes
the rumor). He doesn't like the flat lands near the coast and heads inland
into the mountains that remind him of home. He takes an Indian wife and has
a son John and a daughter Mary. John has children Daniel C McClard who has 11
children, Seth who has 6 children, Mary and Samuel. Daniel C and Seth move their children,
their families and 200 head of
hogs through Kentucky and Tennessee where Seth stays. Daniel C then moves on into Southeast
Missouri near Cape Girardeau on the Mississippi River.
As of April 1998 28,000+ people, 12 generations in the U.S., all directly attatched to Daniel from Scotland are available
as GED.COM, text file, hard copy register report and 1,000+ page hardback
book. New information is arriving and being added daily to the data base. The book contains
the full register report, documents, stories and
hundreds of photographs. You can see the more prominent surnames
