Hi Dennis, Well your Ferguson's are a bit later than my William Ferguson. Therefore like you, can't make a connection...Since their daug. was born in 1840 in Ontario, I am using 1838-39 as their arrival...BUT, then again their daug. could have been a 2nd or 3rd child and they arrived even earlier!! What I need is to connect with someone who has William & Ann Ferguson with another child. Your Ferguson could very well be connected, the area is right,but they are 30 years or so later... So it could be yours are grandchildren of one of the male sons...this is a very big brick wall!!! Thanks for answering...

They had three sons around 1870 George, John and James, although John and James sometimes went by Thomas and William (they were big for using middle names as first names) Son George moved to Toronto in the late 1880s. Men in the family were plasterers by profession.
