Hi Coleen - You can be pretty sure that you will find these given names in earlier generations. I would suggest searching for a Samuel Ewing for Robert 1's father. Esther is likely the name of Robert 1's mother, his unknown wife's name or the name of wife's mother. Names were repeated in each generation. Sounds like Protestant Christian names. Second wife Jane's given name seems to be most often found in Ulster. Did they emigrate to America? The earliest American Federal Census goes back to the Revolutionary War period.

Hi Coleen: I too, am researching Ewing - My Ewing's are from Belfast. My father was Alfred Ewing, born in Belfast in 1921. His father was also Alfred Ewing who married a Hannah Ritchie. Hannah's parents were James and Margaret Ritchie, nee Eston. Alfred's was born in or about 1891 and parents were William & Mary Ewing, nee Horner. Alfred and Hannah (Hansie) had four children before leaving Ireland for Canada. Cecil, Jennie (Jean), Alfred and Fredrick. I do remember my father saying that he had an Aunt Minnie and Uncle Sam, but that is all the I am aware of. Do any of these Ewing's seem familiar to you. Thanks, Gail Sexton, nee Ewing ----- Original Message ----- From: "Coleen Coleman" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]>; <[email protected]>; <[email protected]>; <[email protected]> Sent: Tuesday, February 27, 2007 2:36 PM Subject: [IGW] MY BRICK WALL > EWING, Robert 1st > B: 1740 Ireland > M/1 Unk > Children: Esther, Samuel, Robert 2nd > M/2 Jane Bonneau > 26 Sept 1785 > Child: > John 1st > SECONDLY: > EWING, Robert 2nd > B: 1766 Ireland > M: Carrie Selina (unknownif maiden or middle > name). > THIRDLY: > Who were Robert Ewing 1st's parents? > Did he have any siblings?
