My main family connection seems to link into the Vickars of Taythes, specifically Willam Vickars of Taythes, died 1661. I m sure I will find others, especially as I investigate the distaff lines. Please contact me if you are interested in early 17th century Viccars. I should note that, in general, "I know nothink that isn't already on the site"!
