Dorothy, I couldn't find any McVeigh's in New York at all! I'm sorry but if you have any other thoughts or spellings, just let me know. Best regards, Elizabeth

Hi Elizabeth, I have seen the name spelled McVey, McVay, McKay on different census. I'm not sure he came to the USA in 1850, I'm trying to determine what year he arrived. I know he lived in Newburgh, NY in 1857 as that's the year my grandfather John J McVeigh was born, James is my (elusive) g grandfather. I have been searching for years for him and decided if I could pin down the year he arrived I have a starting point. Thank you ever so much for your help..
