Hello all Deuchar's

Hi Megan,
My maiden name is Deuchar.I was born in Middlesbrough, Yorkshire England, left there when I was 18 and went to live in South Africa.I lived in SA for 28 years, met and married a South African, and 6 years ago we emigrated to the States and now live in Michigan.
My father was born in Scotland, Kelso, and his father owned a brewery there where they made their own beer.I have a bottle with the Deuchar name on the label which my sister purchased for me a couple of years ago when she visited the "ancestral home"!!We are descendants of the Lindsay Clan.
I am one of 8 children, seven girls and one boy, Phillip, who is the only one from my father's line to carry on the Deuchar name.My father was called Bazil, he had a brother, George, and a sister Gwen.Gwen married and wentto live in New Zealand but died on the boat returning to England for a visit.She had a son, Robert (who was not a Deuchar because of her marriage) and he returned to live in England with his Uncle George who had no children.
Hope you find this interesting.
Regards
Valerie Liversage (nee Deuchar)
