Welcome to my Potts \ MacMillan
Family Website.

Welcome to my branch of the Potts Family Homepage.

The origins of our family, to the best of our knowlegde, started withThomas Potts who was executed on 23 December 1518 at Harbottle.
Some generations later John Potts of Gyllesland, England appeares on the Muster Rolls in AD 1580. The family is later found in the Parish of Lanercost, in what was once known as the County of Cumberland. This area is now part of the County of Cumbria in Northern England.

Thomas Potts was the first of my Potts family line to arrive in the United States of America in 1865. Settling in New York State .He was born at Westhall, Cumberland, England.

The maternal branch of my family is the Clan McMillan.  Hugh Robertson McMillan left Glasgow, Scotland in 1893 " To seek his fortune". He arrived in the the United States settling in the area of Worcester, Massachusetts. He became a citzen there in in 1900.
