Hello Joyce, I have just join this list and saw your reply to Lorraine, I was wondering if there is any mention of a David McEwen from Grenada, in Scots in the West Indies 1707-1857 by David Dobson. We have trace back to him when his son James McEwen born 1797 His mother Sarah Hall (a free mustee, or mestee not sure of the spelling) have been told Sarah was of Spanish Amerindian parentage., not sure if that is correct. If you need any help with Australian research I am will to help if possible Many Thanks Regards Camille McEwen ----- Original Message ----- From: "Joyce Falink" <jfalink@rconnect.com> To: <CARIBBEAN-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Monday, June 16, 2003 2:46 AM Subject: Re: MacQueen > Lorraine, > > From "Scots in the West Indies 1707-1857" by David Dobson is the > following: > > DONALD MACQUEEN, born 1795, a surgeon, son of Reverend Edmund MacQueen, > minister in Barra, died in Jamaica 7.1.1819. > > I also have information regarding the Alexander you reference, but I ask > that you contact me off list as the family entries for this person > appear to be numerous. > > Joyce Falink > > p.s.
