  Notes	It took a little while to make the connection between Phoebe and William. Initially I had them as two separate lines because I couldn't satisfactorily make the connection. However searchin Ancestry (Aug 2013) I found the 'Jim Drummond Family Tree' posted by plumosa929 which had some extra information. Unfortunately there were no source notes. One unusual name was given:- William Jeans McKenzie I searched on Family Search and found the baptism plus one for Alexander L(eith) McKenzie in Aberdeen. In the 1841 census Phoebe McKenzie is living in Ecclesfield, Yorkshire with 2 sons: Francis and Alexander. Alexander fitted with the one born in Aberdeen and the Francis could well be De Francis. My only knowled of De Francis's father is that he was an Auctioneer according to De Francis's marriage certificate. I used Scotland's People to download the two baptism entries for William & Alexander. The parents are William McKenzieand Phebe Wines - William is an Auctioneer. This was the connection I had been looking for.
