| 1602 | Birth and baptism as shown here are unconfirmed. However, the 1841 census shows only one William Tasker in Leeds and the IGI shows only one William Tasker born in Leeds and the dates are close. In 1841 William is recorded as a border, age 20, in Leeds, residing with Samuel Stead, age 15. 1871 Census: 15 - TASKER , WILLIAM, Age [55] Birthplace [ENGLAND] Religion [ CE] Ethnic Origin [ ENGLISH] Occupation [ FARMER] District [2] Sub District [B] Division Page [2] Page [29] County [KEN] Description [Tilbury East Twp.] 1901 census gives William's date of birth and shows him as having emigrated from England in 1843. It shows his third wife, Philedelphia, having emigrated in 1874. As family tradition says that they met on the boat it is presumed they married shortly after 1874. Job Tasker's death certificate gives his father's place of birth as "Leeds, Yorkshire". | Tasker, William (I19035)

| 1633 | BRIDGEMAN, W. ordained, 1876, Binbrook, Wentworth County, Ontario. The City of Medicine Hat, Alberta, website records him as the first Methodist Minister in Medicine Hat (1883). http://medicinehat.ca/cityservices/cemetery/history.html Wellington Bridgman, author of "Breaking Prairie Sod: The Story of a Pioneer Preacher in the Eighties" by Rev, Wellington BRIDGMAN (M: 1853 - 1922) (publ. Toronto, 1920). In this book Wellington argues for the expulsion of Jews from Manitoba during WWI. He is recorded as a Canadian army chaplain in Winnipeg. | Bridgman, Rev. Capt. Wellington (I1524)
|
| 1634 | Bridgman notes indicate that Marilda was the daughter of Eli White's sister, Elizabeth White. Eli White was married to Joseph's sister, Sarah. However this is chronologically impossible. It may be a confusion of the fact that Marilda's daughter Matilda married Joseph Murray Bridgman's nephew William M. White. | Lounsbury, Matilda (I8952)

| 1643 | Bruce is not found in Canadian census records after 1889. He may be the W. Bruce Taylor who immigrated to the USA in 1901 and is found in 1930 in Los Angeles City, Los Angeles County, California, USA, age 51, mechanic in an auto garage, English, born Canada, both parents born Canada, wife Edith S, age 44, born Canada, both parents born Canada, married 1906. No children present. This same couple is found in 1920 residing in Elkhart Ward 3, Indiana, USA, with Bruce Taylor, age 40, born Canada, both parents born Canada, immigrated 1901, assistant factory manager, and Edith, age 35, born Canada, both parents born Canada, no children. This couple has not been found in 1910. If this is the same Bruce and he emigrated in 1901 then that would explain his absence from the 1900 American census and the 1901 Canadian census as he was probably in Canada in 1900 and the USA in 1901 and would have missed both censuses. | Taylor, Bruce (I19191)
|
| 1644 | Bruce is recorded in Stewarts of the South as having died in the East Indies. | Stewart, Bruce (I15248)
|
| 1645 | Bruce Stewart married and had children and moved to Detroit. In 1911, Bruce was residing in Hamilton, Wentworth, Ontario, Canada with his parents and siblings. In 1921, Bruce was residing at 383 Wilson Avenue in Hamilton, Wentworth, Ontario, Canada with his parents and siblings. He was employed as a cost clerk at Steel Plant B where his father worked. (Believed to be a precursor to Stelco.) In 1930, Bruce was residing in Detroit, Wayne, Michigan, USA at the home of his sister Agnes and her husband, Howard Robinson. He was employed as an auditor in the stage coach industry. In 1931, Bruce married in Lucas, Ohio, USA, to Dorothy Johnson. In 1940, Bruce was residing in Ferndale, Oakland, Michigan, USA (a suburb of Detroit City) with his wife and new son. He was employed as an accountant. In 1942, Bruce was drafted into military service in WWII. He was residing in Ferndale, Oakland, Michigan, USA (a suburb of Detroit City) at the time. He was employed by the Rotary Electric Steel Company. He gave his emergency contact person as his sister, Agnes, rather than his wife, Dorothy. In 1950, Bruce was residing in St. Clair Shores, Macomb, Michigan, USA (a suburb of Detroit City) with his wife and children. He was employed as an accountant in an architectural firm. | Stewart, Alexander Bruce (I15021)

| 1646 | Bruce, Robert (1274-1329), liberator, and, as Robert I, king of Scotland (1306-1329). He was originally named Robert de Bruce, and to distinguish him from his father and grandfather, who had the same name, he is often referred to as Robert de Bruce VIII. He is also called Robert "the Bruce". As earl of Carrick he paid homage to King Edward I of England, who, in 1296, defeated King John de Baliol and thereafter refused to acknowledge another king of Scotland. Bruce later abandoned Edward's cause and joined other Scottish leaders in taking up arms for the independence of his country. In 1299, the year after the Scottish patriot Sir William Wallace was defeated by Edward at Falkirk, Bruce, then still in favor with Edward, was made one of the four regents who ruled the kingdom in the name of Baliol. In 1305 he was one of those consulted in the decision to make Scotland a province of England. In 1306 he met an old enemy, the Scottish patriot John Comyn, who was the nephew of Baliol; a quarrel occurred, and Bruce stabbed Comyn. Bruce proclaimed his right to the throne, and on March 27, 1306, he was crowned king at Scone. Bruce was deposed, however, in 1307 by Edward's army and forced to flee to the Highlands and then to the little island of Rathlin on the coast of Antrim (now in Northern Ireland). In his absence all his estates were confiscated, and he and his followers were excommunicated. He continued to recruit followers, however, and in less than two years he wrested nearly all of Scotland from the English. Bruce again defeated the English in 1314 in the Battle of Bannockburn, twice invaded England, and in 1323 concluded with King Edward II of England a truce for 13 years. After the accession of King Edward III in 1327, war again broke out, and the Scots won again. In 1328 they secured a treaty recognizing the independence of Scotland and the right of Bruce to the throne. In his later years Bruce was traditionally said to have been stricken with leprosy and lived in seclusion at Cardross Castle, on the northern shore of the Firth of Clyde, where he died. He was succeeded by his son, David II. Bruce's grandson, Robert II, who succeeded David, was the first king of the Stewart house of English and Scottish royalty. The claim that Robert The Bruce had leprosy is disputed by modern archaeologists.

| 1647 | Buchanan of Auchmar (1723) claims Colman as the ancestor of the later Colquhoun family. This is disputed by Colquhouns. | de Buchanan, Colman (I4130)
|
| 1648 | Buchanan of Auchmar claimed Methlen was the progenitor of the later MacMillan family. | de Buchanan, Methlen (I4135)
|
| 1649 | Bulloch claims this is David Cuthbert of Ardersier, however, I am suspicious of Bulloch's claim. This would make David of Ardersier's daughter, Beatrix, and her husband, Alexander Cuthbert, first cousins. Also, later Ardersier records imply that Ardersier was probably a Cuthbert property earlier than David. It's possible that John Cuthbert, 9th of Castlehill had a son named David who was ages with a contemporary David Cuthbert of Ardersier and Bulloch has conflated the two. David is probably the "Cuthbert of Ardersier" cited in minutes of Parliament 1701. | Cuthbert, David (I3159)
|
| 1650 | Bulloch describes Jean/Jane variously as Heiress of Dalkerthy and Dalkethy. Neither of these places have been found to exist. It's possible there was a Dalkethy, derivative from Dalkeithy perhaps located nearby to Inverkeithny, about ten miles east of Keith, Banff. However the family of Hay is known to have held the estate of Delgaty which seems close enough to likely be the correct derivation. Bulloch p14 "Right Rev. William Hay, DD, of St. Andrews of the family of Park in Moray, was born 17 FEB 1647, died 1707, son of William Hay, A.M., master of the music school in old Aberdeen whom he succeeded about 1688. Was Minister of Perth and was consecrated Bishop of Moray, 11 MAR 1688 at St. Andrews. After he was deposed, he returned to the house of his son-in-law, John Cuthbert, where he died 17 MAY 1707. He married Mary, daughter of John Wemyss, parson of Rothes. | Hay, Jean (I7663)
