    1. ANDERSON, James Wesley Anderson, 1840-1873, Ontario, Canada, Wisconsin
    2. I am new to the list and am seeking information on James and Margaret (unknown) ANDERSON. Family tradition says his was from Scotland. They were living in Stratford/Brantford, Ontario September 16.1840 when their oldest son James Wesley ANDERSON (my GGF) was born. I have a photo of James and Margaret in Stratford, Ontario, undated. They had two other sons, Joseph and David. I have photo of the three sons taken in Racine Wisconsin 1863. I have extensive records of James Wesley ANDERSON but have hit my Brick Wall in trying to find any information on his parents. James Wesley serviced in the 2nd Wisconsin during the Civil War. He fought at 1st Bill Run; was wounded and captured and spent eight months in Libby Prison, Richmond. He married Tira Vandalia Gage, July 20, 1862, in Racine Wisconsin. He worked for the Racine/Mississippi Railroad and Western Union Railroad until his death in Durand, IL. January 8, 1873. Any assistance will be greatly appreciated. Jim Gibson
