The Website Author note
We would like to sincerely thank the following people for their work and efforts, and for the contributions that they have made to theSetonFamily.com Website, since its' inception on CompuServe beginning in January 1996.  After progressing from CompuServe, the Seton Family website became an official, independant web-domain in January 2000, under the title of setonfamily.com, which domain name registration lapsed and was seized by a Hong Kong-based company operating out of Vancouver, in 2003.  However, as from before and since then, we have steadily grown with the invaluable assistance of a great many people, some of which we have recognized here:

Douglas Seaton, Researcher
Dugie lives in North Berwick, Scotland, and has provided pictures and genealogies from the East Lothian area, as well as illuminated some of the family's history, from an in-scotland point of view.

Anders Seton, IT Specialst, Bjorn Bergstrom
Anders and his father Bjorn have contributed to the Highland Seton, and Touch/Abercorn/Preston and Ekolsund line information, from which Anders descends through his mother, Violet Seton.  Anders retained his mothers name and with his fathers help, has matriculated arms with Lyon Court.  Anders was previously co-editor of this website, and they both live in Sweden.

George Seeton, Researcher
George lives in New Hamphire and has provided notes on the Nova Scotia branch line that we both share, as well as Port Seton history, his brother Gordon Seeton is the representative of the Seeton's of Nova Scotia, seniors of the Seton's of Ulster and of the Meldrum family lines.

Edward is descended from Henry Seton of Virginia, America in 1690.  He has provided lineal research into the Seton's of Parbroath descent, particularly that of Captain David Seton of Ravenscraig (prev of Kinglass or Kingask) and his brother John Seton, who immigrated to America circa 1635 and settled in Virginia.

Michel Setan, Researcher
Michel  lives in Paris, France, descended from the Seton's of Cariston family, from which a son of this house settled in France and married a daughter of the Count of Bourbon.  He has sourced and has provided copies of rare books presented on the Online Books and Material page, to be presented to the family.

David and Mary Mcmillan, proprietors of Seton Castle, East Lothian, Scotland
On a visit to Scotland in March of 2004, I encountered David and Mary at their home of Seton Castle.  They were not only accommodating in granting permission to tour and photograph the grounds, but gave me a personal  tour of Seton Castle, which they had recently purchased and were in the process of completely restoring.
