From Ken Salkeld: My branch came to Indiana in the early 1800's and my ancestor,John D. Salkeld married and had three children. He remarried about 12 years later, and then moved to Missouri and then to Kansas. The three kids from the previous marriage stayed in Indiana. The ggg-grandkids from the first marriage and I met and stay in contact. One of his uncles changed his name to Salk instead of Salkeld. My dad's father was married 5 times. When my grandparents divorced, my grandmother brought my dad, and his brother and sister back to Indiana, where she was from originally. Have met Salkelds in western Pennsylvania, they (about 6 of them) were told they were the only Salkelds in the world. Needless to say, they were shocked to hear from me. It seems that there are about 6 different branches in the USA at this time...in other words, they came over at 6 different times. (06/15/99)

A distant descendant of the Buccleugh, being the celebrated author and poet, Sir Walter Scott (1771-1832) wrote the book "Redgauntlet." One may be disappointed in the bood with such a title, thinking it should be a book of chivalry, knights and battles. Redgauntlet, published in 1824, is a novel taking place in the summer of 1765, and centering around the fictitious third Jacobite rebellion to restore the Stewart family on the throne of England. Redgauntlet is a fictitious nameof one of the most ancient and honorable families of Scotland. This novel mentions several recognizable points in Cumberland, along the Solway Firth, as well as making commentaries.... In Chapter 15, Scott refers to a group of individuals as the "the White Ladies". This is supposed to refer to the Salkeld Family of White Hall in Cumberland.(10/07/00)
