    My father's family (Blaylock) is Scottish. One branch can be traced back to the 16th century in Annandale.

    My mother's family (Dudziak, pronounced somewhere between "do jock" and "do chok") is Polish. A "duda" is a Polish bagpipe and a "dudziak" is a bagpipe player.

    I wish I could help you with genealogy, but I know very little. My brother, using courthouse records, traced our father's family to the 1790s in western North Carolina. Good luck in your attempts.

    I changed my signature. The old one was too ridiculous.
