Hi Colin, Jenny and all, Greetings from Northern NB where we are in the midst of a deep freeze...-20C with a brisk wind. Colin, I have nothing on the LIDDELLs except that James married Jane WILLIS in Bathurst, NB and lived in Bathurst for some time, but thanks to Jenny, I now have a clearer picture. Jenny, Jane was the daughter of John and Jane (?) WILLIS. She emmigrated (date unknown) to Bathurst, NB with her parents. She had two known siblings, James, born c1814 in Newcastle on Tyne, Eng. and died in Newcastle NB, Isabel, born c1819 in Newcastle on Tyne. She married Robert FERGUSON, of Scotland, in Bathurst where she spent the remainder of her life. > According to the 3 volume book, "The CLEVELAND Chronicles", published abt > 1890 (also President Cleveland ancestors), James Hill LIDDELL didn't have > any children. > Jenny Emily > Where did your LIDDELL branch originate, did they come from Stirlingshire, > specifically the Alloa/Alva area? > > Colin Liddell whose gg grandfather James LIDDELL was born in Alva 1808. > I believe John LIDDELL was from Airth, Stirlingshire & the s/o James > LIDDELL > & Margaret GLEN but could be wrong, > Jenny > Here is roughly what I know about John LIDDELL at Halifax, NS.
