    3. I'm still looking for my elusive Stuart family. Cara and Peggy, thank you for the information you already supplied me with but am still trying to find out who the ancestors are. I know that George Stuart (b. apprx. 1863) was married to Frances Bertha Hamilton (birthdate unknown). They had 8 children: George, Andrew, Sissy, Norah, Maire, Bertha, Helen (b. Jan. 26, 1896) and Charles. I understand that George Sr. had at least one brother named Samuel (b. approx. 1857) who married Annie ? (b. approx. 1861). Samuel and Annie had one son, Thomas Charles Stuart (b. 1898) who died while serving with the RAF on Dec. 12, 1918). It appears that the parents of George and Samuel are George Stuart (b. approx. 1806) and Susanna ? Stuart (b. approx. 1814). We are a bit confused about the age of Susanna since she would have been 43 at the time of Samuel's birth and 49 at the time of George's birth. (George and Susanne's tombstone is also for George and Frances Stuart and their daughter Norah). Could George and Susanna have been anything other than the parents of George and Samuel (ex. aunt and uncle who adopted the boys after their own parent's death or grandparents of George and Samuel?). Another puzzle is about Frances Hamilton's family. My father-in-law insists that Frances' father or grandfather was Lord Major of Dublin. Unfortunately the only Hamiltons we could find were in office in the mid 1700's. (All Stuart family members were C of I according to the 1901 and 1911 census.) Any information on these families would be appreciated. Grace
