Our family has been doing a family tree on my Grandma Smith's side of the family and we discovered that one of my Great-great Grandfathers was born in France in the mid 19th century. His surname was MacEwen. I was surprised to discover he was born in France because I assume the name MacEwen originates in the Scottish Highlands.
I was wondering if anyone has information of people from the Scottish Highlands moving to France in the 18th or 19th centuries? I did wonder if one of the immediate ancestors of my Great-great Grandfather moved from Scotland to France?
