David was my Great Great Great Great Grandfather. I can trace direct ancestry through his 5th child Luke. |

I am researching my family tree and it appears that David Todd is my 4th great grandfather. I am looking to find out as much as possible about my family history. The only information I have is that David was married to Ann (surname unknown) and had a son Luke. I would be grateful for any information. Thankyou |
