She was married to William Roddick, who I believe was in the British Army, stationed in Halifax circa 1831/32. They remained in Canada after he was discharged. > > Since the mother of Isabella (Scott) Roddick is speculation at this time, I would like to be able to confirm the following: > > 1) Is Jean Hewison the mother of Isabella? > 2) Did Jean & David Scott remain in the Orkney's and if so, were they on an 1841 census? > 3) Who were David Scott's parents & Jean Hewison's parents (why not as for the **moon**!) > > Any assistance (even if it's another website to look at), would be greatly appreciated! > > Many thanks, > > Sandi Bellefeuille, > Mississauga, Ontario, Canada > ------------------ > List Archives, information on contacting list administrator, Subscribing and UnSubscribing can be found at: > > http://lists.rootsweb.com/index/intl/SCT/ORKNEY.html > ------------------------------- > To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to ORKNEY-request@rootsweb.com with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message >
