Charles/Colquhoun Family Tree


Charles Family (after 1905)
This is a BIG section and best viewed on desktop/PC/laptop rather than mobile site. 12 children, nearly 40 grandchildren, over 50 great-grandchildren and even a handful of great-great-grandchildren!
Over 100 offspring have descended from William and May so if there's anything incorrect here, I apologise, there's a lot to keep track of.
Let me know. If you want to see details of any of the twelve children, click on the "Children" section on the top menu.
Here we go........*breathe in*........
