Hi (this is new for me so be patient ! )
I am peter duncan minto b,28/06/46 nottingham england.
Father Keneth Ross Minto b.10/04/1910 (?)
Grandfather ,The Rev George minto ( Glasgow ? )
Grandmother Eliza Sutherland Minto
Uncles and Aunts in order:Walker Minto
Marjory ( Stronach )
Ewan Minto
Archie (Rev ) glasgow.
Robert (Rev )known as Rab
Keneth ( Dr.)glasgow/nottingham.
Uncle Walker was in the Airforce during War (wing commander?)
was always refered as the black sheep of the family,fell out with them all and is still a mystery man ,rumoured to have been a bigamist.
The only recent news on "Walker " someone met a Bruce Minto (prominent Edinburgh solicitor )who said his grandfather was a Walker Minto and knew one of his brothers had been a Glasgow Minister (Archie Minto )Google Bruce its worth it !!
Walker Died I think in the 70s.on the south coast of England
I only met him once at Grandmothers funeral I was about 16,no one would talk to him so he took me to the local pub for a drink,sorry cant remember much.
My interest is to go as far back as one can.I know we have a most interesting lineage with the Sutherland Family but the mintos are a bit vague ( Blame it on the Eliots)another story.
OK I could go on for ages , there are a lot of very interesting Mintos still out there ( I liked Walker as a fellow black sheep )
If you want to go on just Email me at [email protected]
Good Luck
