Dear Mark,
You can find Robert Wright's book "How
Scotland Changed the World" on the Amazon Book site with a little write
up.
He no longer lives in OR but has moved to VA.
He has a chart in his book showing the Bruce, Sinclair,
Drummond and Scrymgeour relationships.
The particular Gillascop Scrymgeour 1370-1423, that the
author, Robert S. Wright, theorizes went with Prince Henry's group to Nova
Scotia in 1398, was the son of Agnes Glassary and Alexander Scrymgeour.
Alexander's parents were Alexander Scrymgeour and A. Drummond the sister -
in-law of King David II. His father was Alexander Scrymgeour the first
Bannerman. So the first Bannerman was the great grandfather of Gillascop
Scrymgeour the contemporary of Prince Henry.
Gillascops maternal grandfather was Gillascop
Macgilchrist. So he has a different last name than his daughter Agness
Glassry. Maybe she was a widow??
Also of interest in this book is a chart
showing the Algonquin and ancient Basque alphabets side by side. They are
identical except for two letters. After I read this book I read "Ancient
Mines of Kitchi-Gummi" by Roger Jewell. Then I began to understand how
this language was constructed. Haven't we often heard that "such and such
a language" had no vowels. Vowels were shown by the way the letters were
oriented. Quite ingeneous for people living 2000 BC.
