Hello, David et al. I've been lurking since a few days after the List started, but haven't declared my interests which are in relatives who emigrated to Canada between the 1830s and 1860s. So, here they are, all born Scotland and settled in Ontario (unless otherwise stated): John SHAND (1807-1884) m 1842 Sarah BOLAND His brother, James SHAND (1809-1899) m 1837 Sophia BEDFORD Their sister, Margaret SHAND (b. 1811) m ? FINNIE Their sister Anne SHAND (1813-1882) m 1839 Alexander CHISHOLM Their cousin James SHAND (1811-1872) m 1857 Anna SHEPHERD and moved on to Illinois. His nephew John SHAND (b. 1832) m 1860 (Fordyce) Jean KELMAN (b. 1832) - last sighted as shoemaker in Yorkville ON in 1871. I'd appreciate any information on any of these and am more than happy to share what I have. Regards, Alyson NSW Australia

Alyson, thanks for posting, but with a name like Shand to keep quiet so long? Tut Tut! lol I'm actually thinking of Jimmy Shand - something of a legend in Scotland - I'm pleased to be reminded of that name and that man. David.
