G'day fellow McColms! I was born in, and still live in Australia.
There are McColms spread right across our country. I believe that two
McColm men sailed here from Scotland in search of gold, in the 1850's.

The guestbook experienced a technical glitch which caused previous
entries to disappear. Fortunately, I have been able to restore the
guestbook entries from a backup and have discovered the source of the
technical glitch. Sorry for the inconvenience!

The stories about your family are very interesting. We are trying to
find the parents of our gg gandfather Ira Curry Steele b 1814 or 1816
in Ohio. Family stories say he is scotch irish. Your John Ira Steeele
and Ira John Steele perked my interest because of the naming
tradition. If anyone could provide more information about David Steele it
would be great. Keep up the good work all you workers. Thank you, Susan
Steele Victor

Interesting history. I spoke to Bill a few years ago here in Ottawa
and got copies of his 1978 book. I have kept information on the
MacWhirter side but there is a lot more out there. Thanks for the work on
keeping this going.

Billy, I sent an email to you at the address you gave,
www.billy_mccolm@hotmail.com, but it was returned with the error 'mailbox
unavailable'. I then sent an email to billy_mccolm@hotmail.com, but that too was
returned, with the error 'account inactive'. Do I have the correct
email address? Is there another email address at which you can be
reached?

Hi there, Just thought I'd make contact because you have a Carnwith
recorded on your website. I am also descended from a Carnwith, Annie
Carnwith, born Perth, Ontario, in 1849, daughter of William Carnwith and
Mary CArnwith (nee Thornton.) Annie got married,left Canada and came
to the U.K. around 1870. If you're interested in more, send me an
email. Cheers lesley

I am just about to start research for my family tree. I live in
Cornwall, England but by family originate from Scottish roots. My
grandfather was scottish, my grandmother was from Newcastle-Upon-Tyne. My
fathers name was John James McColm, and I have one brother called Stephen
John McColm. I found your site to be very interesting and I look forward
to finding out more about the family name and my roots. I would love
to hear from you.

A very interesting and comprehensive web-site. Although born in
Ayrshire, Scotland, my McColm antecedents came from Stoneykirk- further
southwest in Scotland in the 19th century.
