Sorry I can't answer your question but I would be interested in any response you may get. My connection starts in Renfrew just outside of Glasgow SCT. Where Sarah Sloan bc 1836 married John Reid in 31 Dec 1857 at Paisley. Sarah's parents were John Sloan bc 1806 and Agnes Auld bc 1807. From a Census records there were othe Sloan's living nearby. If there is any possible connection to your family I will hunt out the old data and see what we can come up with. Sarah and John lived in Dunbarton until they emigrated to NZ after their third child was born arriving in Dunedin in 1862. They had a further seven children in NZ. Sarah's brother's and sister as I know them to be were; Alexander bc 1826, John bc 1828, Elizabeth bc 1831 and William bc 1838. I suspect that John Sloan's father was Alexander bc 1781 but haven't confirmed this. If this is correct his brothers and sister were: Robert bc 1801, William bc 1816, Hugh bc 1821 and Sarah bc 1826. -----Original Message----- From: Annie Sloan <annie@anniesloan.com> To: SLOAN-SLONE-L@rootsweb.com <SLOAN-SLONE-L@rootsweb.com> Date: Tuesday, April 27, 1999 4:15 PM Subject: [SLOAN-SLONE-L] john sloan from ireland >Is there one place in Ireland that the Sloan's come from? > >My JOHN Sloan born 1841 came from Ireland to Glasgow where he married in >1866 but there is no indication about where in Ireland. >Any guidance would be appreciated. >Annie Sloan in Oxfordshire, England > > >==== SLOAN-SLONE Mailing List ==== >To post a message to the list: email SLOAN-SLONE-L@rootsweb.com >The message will be posted to both the list mode and digest mode. > >
