Profile

I have been a semi-regular contributor to Wikipedia since January 2004. I am interested in the History of Scotland and Scottish families, and their Emigration to Canada and the USA.

I am currently writing a biography of Beilby Porteus, Bishop of London, focusing especially on his involvement in the campaign against the British slave trade, as well as his many reforms to the Church of England.
