Hi I realize this is not a question on your own line but I am hoping you won't mind helping me. I also have relatives who came to NY in the late 1700's from Scotland (Perth Blair Athol) Alexander Stewart. Do you what ship your ancestors came across on? For they may have come together. Perhaps you know where your relatives lived in Scotland or a port they might have left from. Thank you for your time Justin, MI [email protected] wrote: > Hi Everyone. > > My ancestors James BELL and Mary KIERLEY lived in Saratoga County in the late > 1700's.
