I am searching for my NESBITT ancestors reportedly from Co. Down. William NESBITT m. Mary HENDERSON sometime before 1795 when their daughter Elizabeth was born in Ireland. Other children were John b. 1798, George B.1799, Margaret b. 1804, James, William, amd Mary. William Sr. emigrated to Canada along with four of his children about 1822-23, after his wife Mary died. William's parents were from Scotland, came to NI as "agriculturalists". Was this just a term for people brought to NI to strenghthen the English hedge? I would greatly appreciate hearing from anyone with knowledge of the Nesbitts in Co, Down. Doreen Guerriero Sault Ste Marie, Ont. [email protected]
