I am going to take a different tact here and ask if anyone is related to a Jenny Nisbet (Nesbit?) who at one time lived in Jacksonville, Florida and was either in a Miss Jacksonville pagent or WAS Miss Jacksonville in the 1950s (?)? Her father was John Nisbet of Braintree, Mass. If I can find someone related to this woman or to her father, John, then I might be able to fill some blanks.

I noted with interest that the 2006 gathering would be visiting Fenwick in Ayrshire. My mother is a Nisbet and her grandfather John Nisbet owned the farm (Mansheugh)in Fenwick around about 1900 to 1940. There were 3 sons Alexander ( my grandfather) David and John who all lived their lives in the Kilmarnock area. The farm dated back to 1600's and had links to the Covenanters with family tales telling off secret vaults used for illicit meetings. John Nisbet left the wife and family with the farm about 1912 and travelled to Canada and America. The details are sketchy but I'm sure a little bit of digging could reveal some more facts for anyone who is interested.

Gurton is such a weird name- if you have a Gurton in your Nesbitt family, write me! I want to find out if we come from Scottish or Irish Nesbitts.

I am the granddaughter of Lionel and Judith Nesbitt who came from St. Kitts/Nevis and then moved to Trinidad. I know that there is a long string of family members of the Nesbitt circle but I am not aware of my connections. I do know the history of the name hence the different spelling Nesbitt/Nisbet. What I was told is that our name was firstly Nisbet but because birth registry mixed up the letters in the name we carried the name Nesbitt since the birth of my grandparents or possibly before. Nice to know of the great number of Nesbitts/Nisbets in the world but i know that there are links close by as the name is not common.

My mother was Marguerite Terese Nisbet, her parents were Robert Francis Nisbet and Eugenie Goslin. Robert was born in Canada in 1885?, his older brother was born in Boston following a sea journey from Scotland by their parents. They were originally headed for Australia but decided to go Canada due to his mothers poor health. I believe my cousin Joan Bishop (Fowles) has done some research into the Nisbet family using information from my Aunt Mary Fowles (Nisbet).
