Hi Nik,
It was great to have a reply to our message but I don't think there's a connection because our McCardles were in
Ayr in the 19th century and later they were in Staffordshire.
Can you let me know which town/village in
Ayr you are connected with in case there is a connection way back. We know there were 2 brothers who came from Ireland and we don't know what happened to the second one.
Thank you,
Helen
