Copyright © March, 1984 Dallas Genealogical Society Dallas, Texas This month our quarterly changes its name from "THE QUARTERLY ," as it has been known in the past to "THE DALLAS QUARTERLY." While this wil 1 necessitate changes in library ca ta loging, (we' 11 now be found under the letter "D" rather than under the letter "Q"), it wil 1 by the same token prevent us from being omitted in listings of quarterlies, as it has been noted we have been omitted in the past. When you find listings of the quarterlies of Chicago, Detroit, Philadelphia, Omaha, etc., how do you index for iden­ tification "The Quarterly"? Each genealogical society throughout the nation and elsewhere have A quarter ly, so if we were listed as THE QUARTERLY, the title lacked identifi- cation. Now we are identified! I believe you should all share the letter received this month from our member Margaret McKamy Colwel 1. She writes: "I enjoyed the December issue of The Quarterly, and especial ly the article on White Rock Camp Meeting. My par­ ents told so many stories of those camp meetings. I wonder how many members of the Society find their ancestors listed as campers. w. T. (Thomas) McKamy was my grandfather." She continues: "You will find a picture of the taber- nacle on Page 474 of Elm Fork Settlements: Farmers Branch and Carrol l ton by GeorgiaMyers Og le. Mrs. Willie Charlotte (Jackson) Good supplied the picture. The Jackson family attended the camp meetings, and Mrs. Good can give some good first hand information . .. 11 With this month' s issue, we continue our publication of the records of the White Rock Camp Ground Meetings, and know our members and readers wil 1 al 1 agree that this is an important record of early Dallas in its formative years, naming names of those who were important to its formation. This month we are starting to carry Dal las County Deed Book "A", careful ly copied fro" the Courthouse records by membersof our Society. Having worked at length with these detail ed records, I feel that each issue in which they are published should carry a ROLL OF HONOR giving the names of those whose records are used. Our ROLL OF HONOR for this issue is as fol lows: Pat Schrader, Erie H. Bol ding, Clytes Cullar, Gwen Neumann, Martha Vermillion and Bet ty Lovejoy. You people have done a wonderful work in abstract­ ing this information so that it can be published. The list should also include, of course, Renee Smith, who originated the form used by the work team at the Courthouse. The Dal­ las Genealogical Society can surely feel a sense of pride in those members who have given of their own time and efforts to make such information available for future genealogical researchers. DO PLAN TO ATTEND THE DGS WORKSHOP IN MAY, ABOUT WHICH YOU 'LL RECEIVE MORE INFORMATION IN YOUR DGS NEWSLETTER. Best wishes for good research !

Their Nation Dishonored, the Queen Shamed, and Country Undone: Feuding, Factionalism, and Religion in the Chaseabout Raid Abstract The mid-sixteenth century witnessed religious and political upheaval across much of Western Europe, particularly in the British Isles. In 1565, a good portion of the Scottish nobility rebelled against their sovereign, Mary, Queen of Scots. The roles played and decisions made by the nobles during this revolt, known as the Chaseabout Raid, provide important insights concerning the converging issues of feuding, factionalism, and religion in Scotland. My reconstructed narrative of the Chaseabout Raid indicates that there were, in fact, no firm factions determined yb ideology, but rather shifting allegiances in the midst of conflict, determined yb complex and interrelated factors, personalities, and motivations. The primary motivation for the coalitions formed during the Chaseabout Raid was selfish personal ambition—base desire for individual gain still superseded any proto-nationalistic ideas or purely ideological commitments.

    ********************************************************************************* GENEALOGISTS FOR THE SCOTTISH CLANS by Robert D. McLaren 7810 Kincardine Court Alexandria, VA 22315-4025 (703) 971-6924 [email protected] 8 April 2000 Version 2000-3 © Copyright 2000 Robert D. McLaren The following list is a compilation of Clan Genealogists or Clan points of contact for genealogy (for the Scottish Clans and Family Associations). The amount of information available from these genealogists varies greatly, with some having extensive records. For example, the clan genealogist for Clan Scott maintains a database of all SCOTTs and is a coordinator of the SCOTT One Name Society. He has about 53,000 records on file dealing with more than 2,000 family lines. The clan genealogist/historian for Clan Barclay also is a coordinator for the BARCLAY One Name Society. She has about 19,000 BARCLAY/BARKLEY and collateral names on file dealing with 125 family lines. The Clan Morrison historian has a 6,000-name database of MORRISON families in the U.S. and Canada. Some clans have genealogy committees. When I learn about them I will include committee members in this listing. Some of these members only cover one or a few states. In these cases, I note the states that particular member covers. Also, some clan genealogists specialize in one surname of a clan. Clan MacKay, for example, has many surname genealogists. I am listing these surnames under the parent clan with a note (i.e., See also Mackie). The actual genealogist and his/her address will be listed under the surname (i.e., Mackie). For some clans, more than one society exists.
