Paul I think all of us here in the USA have a big challenge in finding what
is and isn't. My name is Dunbar and the Dunbar's are mostly connected with
Scotland. Yet, my first Dunbar ancestors to these shores where suppose to
sail
from Northland Ireland. Question is where they born and lived there, or
did
they just travel there to board a ship to the America's? Are my DNA with
fall within the r1b1c7 grouping from them, from my Grandmother who's mother
was
a Flynn and her father a Spear with both names found in Ireland? Or my
mother's side with her mother a Thomason and her Father a Routon? I have
noting
to connect my first Dunbar's to these shore's except their first names and
the probable date of 1730 when they may have settled in Penn. I'm sure
other's
have this problem, and I am not sure how this will be resolved.

Nice to be among you...William (Billy)Taylor Dunbar




This Duncan is the progenitor of the oldest recorded families in Great
Britain; the noble family of Dunbar is certainly descended from him, and
traditionally so are the noble families of Irving and Home, all in the male line; not
to mention the Royal Family and numerous other families by female descent.
DUNCAN, 2ND OF ERYVINE, was succeeded by his eldest son, CRINAN, who married
Princess Beatrix (or Bethoc) daughter and heiress of King Malcolm II of
Scotland, and by her was father of Duncan I, who reigned as King of Scotland for
six years. Crinan was the progenitor in the male line of all the kings of
Scotland down to Alexander III (died 1286), and in the female line of all the
sovereigns of Scotland down to the present day, with the sole exception of
Macbeth, who murdered his son, King Duncan, in 1040, and reigned for the next
seventeen years. Tradition tells us that Crinan maintained a residence at
Eryvine, but that he was the last of his family to do so, the fortress being used
solely for military purposes thereafter. He was killed by Macbeth's forces in
1045, while trying to avenge his son's death and grandson's deposition
