New London, CT is all I know about him off the top of my head. In a message dated 10/17/2006 6:00:42 PM Central Standard Time, DIXANDER@aol.com writes: Where was James located? I have rumors of Minnesota people who came down from Canada. My Ransom came over about the time of the war of 1812 and lived in Oswegatchie, St. Lawrence, New York. He lived with Bromaghim family who were Loyalists. He later married Mary Bromaghim. The Bromaghims, Lyons, and Tallman and Van Waters were all associated in New York, and most had been in Canada about the same times.
