    Tweedie Of New Brunswick.
    Tweedy Of Cloonamahon.
    Tweedie In Quothquan, &C.
    Alexander Leslie Tweedie.
    Tweedie In Dreva And Minzon, And Of Coats.
    Alexander Gladstone Tweedie.
    Tweedie From Lindores.

replies: text: I created an extra section with fuller text for some of the branches (Quarter) (Tweedie-Stodart) (Rawlinson) (Dreva etc), so I thought we didn't need them here and it would be helpful just to leave those that do need further work (particularly Essex) If I have taken one out in error, please put it back - regards Motmit (talk) 08:53, 29 April 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Okay.  I'll try to put something together regarding Essex as I do have a family tree up to 2008.  Admiral Sir Hugh is a scion of Rawlinson, that may be wothy of a mention. --Heraldic (talk) 12:24, 29 April 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Tweedie/Tweedy Branches 

message: I have to declare an interest in that I have set up an online armorial for Tweedie/Tweedy and Wikipedia does rather frown upon promoting one's own sites.  However, do fellow editors here think a link to a Tweedie/Tweedy armorial would be of any merit as far as this article is concerned?  I quite understand if you do not. --Heraldic (talk) 09:19, 6 May 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: The policy is clearly aimed at spam use of links for personal promotion solely to achieve a commercial benefit. If it's a personal interest site without a direct financial objective I do not see a problem and I would support it. My view is that ext-links are appropriate if they contain material that cannot be put on Wiki for copyright reasons or if they contain a wealth of detail that would otherwise swamp the article (and provided they reach a point with the info directly accessible - not a home page that calls for further navigation). They are not appropriate if they are blatant advertising with no added value for the article. Sometimes they fall a bit between and others may draw a line differently from where I would. Does that help? Motmit (talk) 05:35, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
replies: text:  I think (of course) it meets the criteria, its not commercial and it does contain details of 20 Coats of Arms that would be overkill in the article.  The direct URL is http://www.heraldry-online.org.uk/tweedie/tweedie-arms.htm .  --Heraldic (talk) 08:08, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Heraldry

message: I have edited the Allied Clan to [Clan Fraser] from [Clan Fraser of Lovat].  This because Fraser of Lovat is a Highland Clan, where as The Tweedies are a Lowland family related to the Lowland Frasers.  I have also had some discussions on the matter with the Lady Saltoun.
