WIGTOWN or WIGTON is located about 30 miles south of Glasgow, Scotland. The village is located near the North Channel, across from Northern Ireland. It is located about 15 miles north of the Isle of Man.

Dr. J. P. McCallie stated in a letter to Diane (McCallie) Lower, that his nephew S. J. McCallie, Jr., visited the Wigtown area in the summer of 1964, and found some McCallies still living there!

The data in these WeRelate.org pages is very incomplete, regarding the descendants of Alexander McCallie. There is much to include yet!

    The book shows a map with Wigtown, and nearby shows an area of the MACDOUCALIS Family. It would seem that the area is a sheep herding region.
