|
| 5862 | On 25 May 1834, at age 27, Jean Stewart in Stronvar had a child born in fornication with Andrew McFarlane in Ballemore, called Jean. "1834 May 25 Andrew McFarlane Ballemore and Jean Stewart Stronvar had a child in fornication baptized and called Jean." (Balquhidder OPR) There are no Kirk Session minutes in Balquhidder for the year 1834, so there is no mention of this fornication having been brought to the Session. Jean McFarlane was raised by her maternal uncle and aunt, Robert Stewart and Mary Stewart in Balnluig, Stronvar, Balquhidder, Pertshire, Scotland. In 1841, at age 5, Jean McFarlane was residing in Balnluig, Balquhidder, Perthshire, Scotland with her maternal uncle and aunt, Robert Stewart and Mary Stewart. In 1851, at age 16, Jean McFarlane was residing in Balnluig, Balquhidder, Perthshire, Scotland with her maternal uncle and aunt, Robert Stewart and Mary Stewart. In 1861, at age 26, Jean McFarlane was residing in Stronvar, Balquhidder, Perthshire, Scotland with her maternal uncle and aunt, Robert Stewart and Mary Stewart. Jean McFarlane has not been confidently identified in the 1871 or 1881 census records.

| 5863 | On 26 Apr 1909, in Toronto, York, Ontario, Canada, Ernest McTaggart son of Josephine McTaggart was born illegitimately. His father is not named on the birth registration. His mother died the next day. It is possible that his birth father was named Ernest. On 7 Sep 1909, at age nineteen weeks, Ernest McTaggart was adopted by Charles and Harriet Packer who chose to keep his birth name of Ernest McTaggart as his first and second names. Given the lengthy delay between birth and adoption it is unlikely that the Packer family had any prior connection with Josephine McTaggart or the birth father. It is more likely that Charles Packer's own experience as an illegitimate child with no father listed on his own birth certificate motivated him to seek out a child in a similar plight from the Salvation Army. It was unusual for an adopting family to keep the adopted child's birth name. Charles' Packer's motivation to do so with Ernest was likely simple empathy. Ernest was born at the Salvation Army Women’s House (65 Bloor Street East). He would have been cared for in their accompanying infants' hospital or transferred to the Infant's Home of Toronto while his future was decided by Children's Aid Society of Metropolitan Toronto. Because Charles and Harriet had been married for nine years without children, they were likely actively seeking a child. In 1909, the Salvation Army Rescue Homes did not just shelter women; they actively placed the surviving babies of deceased or destitute mothers with "respectable, god-fearing Christian families." In 1911, at age 2, Ernest Packer was residing in Etobicoke, York, Ontario, Canada, with his adoptive parents. Also residing with them was Bert Lewis, age 25, born Dec 1886 in England, half-brother. In 1921, at age 12, Ernest Packer was residing Etobicoke, York, Ontario, Canada, with his adoptive parents. Also residing with them was Charles Lewis, 26, brother. In 1931, at age 22, Ernest Packer, was residing at Esquesing, Halton, Ontario, Canada, with his adoptive parents. He was employed as a labourer on his parents' farm. On 11 Sep 1933, Ernest McTaggart Packer, age 24, married in Acton, Halton, Ontario, Canada, to Alice Louise Tuck, age 18. Ernest was residing in Esquessing, farmer, bachelor, Anglican, son of Charles George Packer and Henrietta Usher. Alice was residing in Eden Mills, spinster, daughter of William Charles Tuck and Alice Mae Richardson. He was married secondly to Vera Susannah Kean. --- Google AI leads: Josephine likely became pregnant in her home community before being sent to Toronto, the father is almost certainly a young man living in or near Huntingdon Township, Hastings County in 1908. DNA - Because the granddaughter shares ~25% of her DNA with Ernest, Ernest's biological father will appear on her match list as Second to Third Cousins (sharing roughly 100 cM to 350 cM) or Third to Fourth Cousins (sharing 30 cM to 100 cM). Eliminate Known Lines: Use Ancestry’s color-coding tools to completely filter out matches belonging to the granddaughter's maternal side, as well as Ernest’s adoptive Packer/Usher lines. Isolate the McTaggart Matches: Identify the matches that share DNA with Josephine McTaggart's known extended family. Extract the Paternal Cluster: The remaining, unassigned matches who share the surname found in the Y-DNA results form your target group. Take the top autosomal matches who carry or connect to that Y-DNA surname and look at their public trees. Find where their trees intersect. You are looking for a common ancestral couple (likely the mystery father's parents or grandparents). Once you find that ancestral couple, build their tree downward into the early 1900s. Once you have the candidate family tree from the DNA, bring it back to the geography of 1908 Hastings County. Open the 1901 and 1911 censuses for Huntingdon Township. Locate the sons of that specific candidate family tree who were living in the township. Identify any male from that family who was roughly 18 to 30 years old in the summer of 1908. Because rural townships had small populations, you will likely find only one or two candidate brothers who fit the exact age profile, lived near the McTaggart farm, and match both the autosomal distance and the Y-DNA surname. Check Local Bastardy or Child Support Records Even though the birth certificate is blank, local courts sometimes handled financial support. Prior to leaving for Toronto, Josephine or her parents may have quietly attempted to secure child support or a marriage promise from the father. Investigate the Hastings County Court of General Sessions records or local magistrate records for 1908–1909 (held at the Archives of Ontario). Look for "Affiliation Orders" or "Bastardy cases." If Josephine named the father in a local court to get financial help for her impending journey to Toronto, it will be recorded there. Review Hastings County Newspapers. Rural newspapers in 1908 were incredibly detailed about local social movements. Search digitized local papers (such as the Weekly Intelligencer or The Ontario out of Belleville) from 1907 to 1909. Look for "social columns" from Huntingdon. These columns routinely printed snippets like: "Miss Josephine McTaggart attended the social at the home of Mr. [Surname]..." or listed young local men visiting the McTaggart vicinity. This can provide circumstantial evidence of who Josephine was socializing with right before her pregnancy. | Packer, Ernest McTaggart (I25669)

| 5864 | On 26 Mar 1868, at age 21, Alexander Stewart, single, died at Crachavie, Aberfoyle, Perthshire, Scotland, son of Walter Stewart, labourer, and Margaret McFarlane. Witness: Walter Stewart, father. | Stewart, Alexander (I20655)

| 5865 | On 27 Apr 1830, at Upper Hythie, Old Deer, Aberdeenshire, Scotland, John Stewart and his brother Alexander Stewart were witnesses to the baptism of their nephew James Stewart, son of James Stewart, 4th in Upper Hythie. John has not been found in any census records. He was recorded as deceased in his mother's death registration in 1855 and is presumed to have died before the first census in 1841. | Stewart, John (I16497)
|
| 5866 | On 27 Apr 1830, James Stewart was born in Pidscow, Old Deer, Aberdeenshire, Scotland. His baptism was witnessed by his paternal uncles, John Stewart and Alexander Stewart, both in Hythie. James Stewart is not found with his parents in 1841 or 1851. He has not been confidently identified elsewhere in either census. In 1859, James Stewart married in Strichen, Old Deer, Aberdeenshire, Scotland to Isabella Hemingway. It is believed that they moved almost immediately to Brazil. James and his family are not found in the 1861 census in Scotland and are believed to have been living in Brazil at the time. James Stewart's first recorded child, Jane, was born in 1863 in Bakia, Brazil. Given the gap between his marriage in Aberdeen in 1859 and Jane's birth, it is possible that James and Isabella may had another other child while in Brazil who did not survive. The reason for their move to Brazil is not known for sure. It could be related to the fact that in the 1840s and 1850s, Britain was exercizing significant economic influence in Brazil under the direction of British Foreign Secretary, George Hamilton-Gordon, 4th Earl of Aberdeen Although Brazil was a Portuguese colony, Britain had strengthened its econimic ties with Brazil after supporting Portugal during the earlier Napoleanic Wars. By 1864, James and his family were back in Scotland and residing on the family croft at Upper Hythie. In 1871, James' wife, Isabella Stewart, was residing at Upper Hythie, Old Deer, Aberdeenshire, Scotland, with her five children all under the age of 10. James was not present and has not been found elsewhere in the 1871 census. Isabella was recorded as a crofter of 12 acres. Also residing at Upper Hythie was 66-year-old Alexander Angus, a shoemaker. His son, James Angus, would later become Isabella Stewart's second husband. On 13 Jul 1872, at age 42, James Stewart, crofter and mason, husband of Isabella Hemingway, died at Hythie, Old Deer, Aberdeenshire, Scotland, son of James Stewart, crofter (deceased) and Dorothy Sangster. Informant: William Mc~~~y, neighbour. Upon James' death, the family croft at Upper Hythie passed out of the Stewart family after five generations. James' widow, Isabella married secondly on 7 Apr 1877 in Strichen, Aberdeen, Scotland to James Angus, b 1837 in Longside, Aberdeenshire and moved to Kininmonth, Old Deer, where James Angus was a crofter of 14 acres. He had been living at Upper Hythie in 1871 working as a farm servant. | Stewart, James 5th in Upper Hythie (I16286)

| 5867 | On 27 Apr 1912, at age 15, William Angus, III, along with his birth family, immigrated from Lancashire, England to Quebec, Canada, bound for Michigan, USA. They were travelling with his father's brother, Arthur Angus, and his family. The family originally had tickets to sale on the Titanic on April 10, 1912, but (for reasons unknown) ended up sailing on the next ship, The Megantic. The Titanic sank on 14 Apr 1912, four days into its journey. William later worked as a grinder in an auto factory. In 1916, his future bride, Ada Alderman, migrated from Brooke (Alvinston), Lambton, Ontario, Canada, where she was born, to Detroit, Michigan, USA, where she worked in the auto industry. William and Ada had no children. On 21 Sep 1922, William Angus, III, entered the USA from Canada intending to visit his father, William H.

| 5890 | Online Genealogy for Johannes Muller indicates he is "a Palatine line". The Palatinate was, in German history, the land of the Count Palatine, a title held by a leading secular prince of the Holy Roman Empire. Geographically, the Palatinate was divided between two small territorial clusters: the Rhenish, or Lower Palatinate, and the Upper Palatinate. The Rhenish Palatinate included lands on both sides of the Middle Rhine River between its Main and Neckar tributaries. Its capital until the 18th century was Heidelberg. The Upper Palatinate was located in northern Bavaria, on both sides of the Naab River as it flows south toward the Danube and extended eastward to the Bohemian Forest. The boundaries of the Palatinate varied with the political and dynastic fortunes of the Counts Palatine. The Palatinate has a border beginning in the north, on the Moselle River about 35 miles southwest of Coblenz to Bingen and east to Mainz, down the Rhine River to Oppenheim, Guntersblum and Worms, then continuing eastward above the Nieckar River about 25 miles east of Heidelberg then looping back westerly below Heidelberg to Speyer, south down the Rhine River to Alsace, then north-westerly back up to its beginning on the Moselle River. The first Count Palatine of the Rhine was Hermann I, who received the office in 945. Although not originally hereditary, the title was held mainly by his descendants until his line expired in 1155, and the Bavarian Wittelsbachs took over in 1180. In 1356, the Golden Bull (a papal bull: an official document, usually commands from the Pope and sealed with the official Papal seal called a Bulla) made the Count Palatine an Elector of the Holy Roman Empire. During the Reformation, the Palatinate accepted Protestantism and became the foremost Calvinist region in Germany. After Martin Luther published his 95 Theses on the door of the castle church at Wittenberg on 31 October 1517, many of his followers came under considerable religious persecution for their beliefs. Perhaps for reasons of mutual comfort and support, they gathered in what is known as the Palatine. These folk came from many places, Germany, Holland, Switzerland and beyond, but all shared a common view on religion. The protestant Elector Palatine Frederick V (1596-1632), called the "Winter King" of Bohemia, played a unique role in the struggle between Roman Catholic and Protestant Europe. His election in 1619 as King of Bohemia precipitated the Thirty Years War that lasted from 1619 until 1648. Frederick was driven from Bohemia and in 1623, deposed as Elector Palatine. During the Thirty Years War, the Palatine country and other parts of Germany suffered from the horrors of fire and sword as well as from pillage and plunder by the French armies. This war was based upon both politics and religious hatreds, as the Roman Catholic armies sought to crush the religious freedom of a politically-divided Protestantism. Many unpaid armies and bands of mercenaries, both of friends and foe, devoured the substance of the people and by 1633, even the catholic French supported the Elector Palatine for a time for political reasons. During the War of the Grand Alliance (1689-97), the troops of the French monarch Louis XIV ravaged the Rhenish Palatinate, causing many Germans to emigrate. Many of the early German settlers of America (e.g. the Pennsylvania Dutch) were refugees from the Palatinate. During the French Revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars, the Palatinate's lands on the west bank of the Rhine were incorporated into France, while its eastern lands were divided largely between neighboring Baden and Hesse.
