Hi Valorie, did you see any Peter on those lists? Unfortunately I don't have any info except he was born Mochrum 1851 living in Liverpool in 1861 census, age 10. There is just a chance he went to US but know nothing more except his parents Owen Macqueen or McQuinn. He would be about 30+ in 1881. Just a chance you might find him. I have given up.

I would like to know the names of the parents of Louise McQueen, date of birth and place of birth. This would be the best way to find some of her ancestors. My great uncles Frederick W and Albert McQueen born in Liverpool 1874 and 1880 census of 1901 of England. I would like to find their line? This would be helpful as lots of them emigrated to USA and people need to trace back before going forward. amI making sense??

Hi Valorie, DAR is very interesting with lots of McQueens but it hard for me to find if any are related to me. My lot emigrated to Liverpool and down to London from Mochrum one strayed to Dublin where my father was born. So very hard to know where my great uncles Albert and Frederick W McQueen Liverpool went from there and if they have any descendants in the US or not. Cheers, Patricia nee McQueen, S.F. Calif.
