'''THE LINN / LYNN AND WIDNEY / WOODNEY FAMILIES'''
'''GENEALOGICAL ESSAYS BY LORETTA LYNN LAYMAN'''


My 30-year study of the Linns/Lynns of Scotland and Northwest Ulster (Counties Londonderry, Donegal, and Tyrone), and my more recent work on the Widney/Woodney family of Ulster, have prompted me to create the following web pages, which examine the history of those families through the end of the 18th century:

Some of my conclusions may surprise you.  I hope they will at least interest you.  They are based on two dozen sources each for both the Linns and the Widneys.  Also of interest should be my study of the Lynns of that Ilk in Ayrshire, Scotland, which includes twenty-eight sources.  There is weighty (though not conclusive) evidence for the Lynns of Northwest Ulster having sprung from cadets (younger sons) of the Lynns of that Ilk.  It is certain that the earliest Lynns of record in Londonderry, Donegal, and Tyrone were Scots settlers in the first plantation of Ulster.

The minor barony owned by the Lynns of that Ilk is in Dalry, Ayrshire and includes the lovely Lynn Glen and Lynn Falls. Some of the photos at the following page were taken when my husband and I visited in 2004.
