My GG Grandfather, Benjamin Witherhead came from Glenwherry with his wife [Mary (Millikin) Witherhead] and 5 children around 1818. They settled in upstate New York [Oswegatchie: near the present-day Ogdensburg] It seems clear that Benjamin had at least one brother, who stayed in Antrim. I'd like to (1) identify Witherhead family members in Antrim and (2) determine exactly how/when the Witherheads moved from Glenwherry to Oswegatchie. On theory is that they went via Glascow, Nova Scotia, Montreal/Quebec.
