Surnames: Tweed Classification: Census Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/iQTBAIB/127.1 Message Board Post: Matthew Tweed is the son of Alexander Dickey Tweed and Maria Waite (or Wait). They are from Prescott County, Ontario. Matthew was born in 1847 and Maggie was born in 1843. They are listed in the 1880 US Census. I am having a hard time tracing Alexander Dickey Tweed to his father's in Ireland.
