Hi all! Still searching for McLeans who left Ft. William in 1801 on the Sarah. Info I already have: The ship's passenger list & journal entry for the voyage. Descendant info on William McLean after he arrived in New Glasgow, to date. There were 7 McLeans on that ship - at least there were 7 recorded in the passenger list: Wm. McLean, farmer grouped with Margaret McLean, spinster; Don McLean, laborer grouped with Mary McLean, spinster and Kath. McLean; John McLean (10) grouped with Wm. McLean (8) all listed as being from Kilmorack. We believe that they had the ages switched for the two boys as the boy William is my great great great grandfather who was actually 10 years old when that ship sailed from Ft. William. By the time they reached Nova Scotia, he was 11 years old. Is there anyone who knows how to find out who belongs to who of these 7 McLeans, where they came from, who they might have left behind in Scotland (if anyone), and where the rest of the McLeans went once they arrived in the new land. We only know of William, he settled on Fraser's Mountain; we have a lead on John - possibly settled in Marshy Hope (also known as McLellan's Brook). According to the naming patterns, William and Margaret would have been William's parents. But we would like to find out for sure. Any help is much appreciated. Also, have been working online in Nova Scotia for over 3 years and can point you in the right direction for great genealogy research - or at least let you know where we've had success. Rob McLean
