- The following email was sent to the author by Alan Williams, Cumberland, Maryland on August 25, 2018. The information contained in it helps to solidify that Melinda Porter was the wife of John McKenzie.
Ed and Tania!
A few days ago, my brother Scott met a man in Atlanta, Michael McKenzie, who is deeply involved in research into that family’s origins. As it happens, he had a roll of Microfilm of 2000 pages of McKenzie research done in the mid-20th Century.
We again owe you a debt of thanks, on behalf of BOTH family trees. Your work on your ancestor Henry, shows us (see attached note of Colonel McKenzie below) that “Linday Porter” (born 1768) wife of John McKenzie (1765) is very likely your Henry’s sister, and a niece of our John and Moses Porter, a connection we would likely have never made without your work.
So once again, our thanks! And know that your efforts will serve many generations to come for people who wish to know their origins. Michael, by the way, is very certain that his particular branch of McKenzies are, as shown by Y DNA testing, very likely Scottish, not Irish.
Best wishes,
Alan Williams
