The links below are posted for the general information of all Fleming researchers. I am not the originator
of any of the information and the links are provided for your convenience and for those who are curious
about the Ancient Fleming Lines. I do not know how accurate the information is but the family lines make
for a fascinating read and no doubt some of it is correct. I have seen similar information printed in other
Fleming Historical Records.ie. Fleming Histories printed in 1929 so I think worthwhile having the links
here for all to enjoy reading the information and the castle pic below.
