My Grandparents - Richard A. RUTLEDGE & Agnes AITKEN who were born,raised and married in Scotland brought their children, Richard, Ellen, Malcolm, Violet and David from Glasgow to Windsor,Ontario in 1926. They only lived in Windsor for a short time and then moved to Detroit. The only one who stayed in Canada was Ellen who married Robert ADAMS. My maternal Grandmother was Catherine MacLEOD who was born at Stornoway, on the Isle of Lewis, Scotland in 1899. She was the daughter of George MacLEOD and Christina MURRAY/MURRY. I do not know when she arrived in Canada or whether it was with her parents. She married John P. VAUGHN and they had one child Constance Louise, who was my mother. She was born in Sasskatoon in 1916. I do not know where or when my Grandfather VAUGHN was born or the name of his parents or either of them as to whether they had siblings. They did own a large boarding house in Windsor from sometime in the 1930's for at least 10 years. Grandfather died around 1950 and Grandmother in 1979. I believe that there were relatives in Ontario, but I don't know if they were RUTLEDGE or AITKEN or VAUGHN my great grandfather Andrew RUTLEDGE was born in county Armagh, Ireland in 1846 but he moved to Glasgow Scotland. His second wife was Jane BLACK whom he married in 1877. M John Rutledge Mesa, Arizona rutledgemj@aol.com

Hi Robina, Most city directories I've seen are divided into several sections which allow you to determine either the address of an individual (males and widows), or the resident at a given address. The latter list will often provide the individual's occupation or the name of the company he works for or both. Another section of the directory was a sort of pre-telephone "yellow pages" Cheers!

Thanks for all the information. Guess it won't help me, but it is all very interesting. Lou Ritter

Hi all Can anyone tell me What information I can get from the city directories? What info would I be required to give in order to search? Robina, Bris. Aus

Here is how my Campbell clan goes: 1) John Campbell / Mary McCallum ( Argyl) 2) Donald Campbell ( born ~1764 in Kilmartin Argyl) / Helen (Nellie) Campbell (House of Duntroon) - Nellie immigrated to Elgin Co., Ontario (i.e. Port Glasgow, Aldborough) on June 1819 on the Harmony or the Hope - Donald immigrated Oct. 4, 1819 3) John ( ~ 1791 Argyl ) wed Christine ? Margaret ( Oct, 1795 Argyl ) wed John McIntosh Mary ( April 1897 Argyl ) wed Donald McIntyre Dugald ( Feb 1800 Argyl ) wed Nancy Paterson Neil ( March 1802 Argyl ) wed Nancy McCallum Duncan ( 1808 Argyl ) wed Mary Turner ? ( Sept 1811 Argyl ) ? ( Dec 1813 Argyl) Donald ( April 1815 Argyl) Malcolm ( 1828 Elgin Co. Ontario) wed Susan Cameron I can further decline each of the above if you are interested. Most of my Campbells are buried the Fingal cemetery, Southwald Twp.Elgin Co., Ontario. Hopefully we can find a connection.

I'm looking for leads to PETER NICHOL, husband of LOIS ANNE MOORE. Don't know where he came from and don't know where he went. His daughter, Elizabeth Nichols married William Henry Beltz in Trempeleau, Wisconsin in 1868. Lois Anne died there as did three of their children. Peter and Lois's other children were William Buell Nichols, b. 1848 in Toronto; Annie, b. 1849, d. 1866; Thomas, b 1850, d. 1866; Elizabeth, b. 1852 in Quebec, d. 1918; Lois A., b. 1854; Isabelle, b. 1857 in Illinois; Mary, b. 1860 in Illinois; Agnes, b. 1862 in Illinois; Henry, b. 1865; and Carrie M., died in Trempeleau, WI.

Benjamin Gunn had endentured himself to the Hudson's Bay Co in Scotland 1813. He, his sibblings and parents left Scotland same time but on different ships. Benjamin on the Eddystone, the immigrants aboard the Prince of Wales. Both ships belonged to HBC. Typhoid broke out on the Prince of Wales and the captian put in at Ft. Churchill. A few weeks ago I was in Winnipeg at the Manitoba Archives/Hudson Bay co Archives and found that Benjamin changed ships and finished the trip aboard the Prince of Wales. He held various positions at different HBC posts over the years until 1827 when he is listed at Ft. Garry, Manitoba (not far from Winnipeg on the Red River) as a Freedman. I take this to mean the term of his endenture or contract was finished and he is next found in Elgin Co., Ontario in 1828. So he didn't come directly from Scotland to Elgin Co. in 1828. The Prince of Wales passenger list is on-line for anyone interested. Try a simple search on Google.

Researching these Scottish families Montgomery,Downs,Adair Ross in New Richmond Quebec. Thomas Montgomery came to New Richmond around 1837 he married Janet Ross who I believe to be the widow of James Adair. He had a son James who married Jane Downs from Restigouche County New Brunswick.

Joan Do you have any information on how Benjamin arrived in 1827/28? I have MUNRO ancestors who supposedly arrived in Elgin Co in 1827 from Argyll. So far I haven't found a ship arriving anywhere at that time and haven't confirmed this date. That looks on the map like an awful trek from Hudson Bay to Lake Erie. It's hard to imagine what our ancestors endured in their search for land and freedom. D.

Can I jump in with my CAMPBELLs also? My g-g-grandfather was Neil CAMPBELL. Neil (abt 1820?-aft 1850) died in Elgin Co.--probably Aldborough or Southwold Twp. I've been told his parents were Alexander CAMPBELL & Agnes/Nancy FERGUSON. He may have had siblings Edward, Dugald, John, James, Margaret, Jane, & Janet. These names are from an old "tree" handed down in the family. Their children were my g-grandmother Nancy/Agnes Ferguson? Campbell (1848-1932) and her brother Duncan N. Campbell (b abt 1850) Neil's wife, Elizabeth (Betsy) MCINTYRE (1826-1867), after Neil's death married John MCKILLOP. I'm not sure if Neil was born in Scotland or Canada. All of these folks immigrated from Argyll in the early 1800s. Neil's wife Betsy was born in Craignish Parish in 1826. My guess is she and Neil married in Canada but I don't have a record. D.

Hi There are a number of Gunns listed under the Metis Scrips as original white settlers. You can find it at www.archives.ca and then go to site map, and look under records created by government.

Good Morning My family of Gunns came aboard the Prince of Wales to Ft. Churchill, Man where they were put off the ship because of sickness that had broken out. It is thought to have been typhoid.This group of settlers spent the winter at Churchill and then started what was to become known as 'The Overland Trek." Once at the RR Settlement, conditions were bad enough that many who came to Canada together on the Prince of Wales decided to leave and come to Ontario, to Elgin Co and the Col. Thomas Talbot settlement.However, not all of my Gunn family came at this time -- Benjamin who was with the HBC came c 1827/8; another brother arrived in Elgin Co mid 1830's. This small band of immigrants were tagged desserters for leaving the west. They finally made it to the Talbot settlement sometime in 1817 .... so any Gunn who was born in the west after this date or who immigrated from Scotland is pretty much a mystery to me. It is thought there were relatives who stayed in Arnprior, On on the way to Elgin co. and Gunn relatives that stayed in Manitoba. I don't mind sharing what I have if you feel our two families are related. Let me know ...
