hi Guys,

When i was growing up we were always told that we were related to John Knox the reformer, how true this is no-one knows lol.
John Knox had 2 sons which died (apparently) without having any children.
He then married again and had 2 daughters.
When ive done some reading on the internet, people say that whoever think they are related to john knox cannot be directly related to him but more than likely are a decendant of his brother William Knox.
I dont know how close i will get to him but i will try but at the moment i have a major brickwall, which i have to knock down
