John, a widower, and his young two sons, Colin and Norman, joined a party of 400 emigrants under Archibald McMillan which left Fort William on 3rd July 1802 sailing in 3 ships, the "Friends", "Helen" and "Jane". They took 9 weeks to reach Montreal. <br /><br />The family heads were given 200 acres of land in Stormont County. Johns land was lot 19 concession 4 of Finch Township but he decided to settle with his brother Donald on Lot 36, Concession 6 Glengarry County. John married May McGillivray (possibly aboard ship) and they had 10 more children in Glengarry. <br /><br />Much of this line can be found in the book which you referenced. Though Ian Campbell was kind enough to scan pages related to my line, I would LOVE to get my hands on a copy of this book.Lois Campbellnoreply@blogger.com
