Karen and Agnes,

I am research information regarding William Lachland (could be Lachlan, Lauchlin, Lauchline). He would have been born about 1720. He had 2 sons that I know of, Samuel Lachland, b. 5/28/1744, Newton-upon-Ayr, Ayrshire, and William Lauchland, b. 1/1754, baptized 1/20/1754, Newton-upon-Ayr, Ayrshire.
William Sr. was married to a Jane Cook. Jane had a brother, Samuel. Samuel married Jean Mitchell and they had at least one child, Isobel.
William Sr. and Jane came to America about 1770 (plus or minus 5 years). Samuel Lachland married before coming to America, but to whom I don't know.
Samuel also fathered a Samuel and a William. Samuel Jr. is my 4th great grandfather, who was possibly born in Scotland, 8/8/1770. Samuel Jr's brother, William, was born in 11/11/1774 in GA.
I'm wondering if there might be a connection of Annabelle to these William(s) and Samuel(s).
