Hello fellow root seekers, Just thought I would let you know the surnames I am researching in case it connects with something of yours. Here they are by ethnic origin: Irish: LARRETT, STYLES, CARR, WHELAN, SADLER, BLACK, MCGRATH Scottish: CUTHBERTSON, MCLEOD, ROSS, FERGUSON English: HARRIS (possibly Welsh), THACKERAY, ADAMS American: PIERCE (Vermont) Also interested in any UNITED EMPIRE LOYALIST connections to the Ottawa Valley area. Either my PIERCE or MCLEOD folks had something to do with the LOYALISTS. Brickwalled there. I thank you in advance for any assistance. Mary Harris
