| 873 | A Bland is found only in the 1901 census at age 21. He may be from a previous marriage. | Bland, Joseph (I22300)

| 874 | A descendant claim has been made that Alexander married in 1763 to Catherine Drummond with the following children: Janet 1764 John 1766 Duncan 1769 Alexander 1771 Betty 1774 Catherine 1777 James 1782 Onomastics suggests that this is not the correct family. The third son and daughter match the parents' names, however, the first son and first daughter do not match Duncan McNab and Mary Stewart. It is noteworthy that Alexander and Catherine had no daughter named Mary at all. | McNab, Alexander (I21560)
|
| 875 | A descendant of Robet Angus is a DNA match to me at 1 segment, 12 cM on my maternal side. Her tree is full and well-researched. Her paternal side is all Italian. Most of her maternal side is American going back to the early 1700s or earlier, with no surnames or locations that match my mother's ancestors. The only surname in her entire tree that matches my maternal side is ANGUS, begninning with this Robert Angus who was married in 1841 in Paisley, Renfrew, Scotland. | Angus, Robert (I22476)
|
| 876 | A John Ord is found in Huntingdon County, Quebec, having married on 4 MAR 1825 at St Gabriel's Presbyterian, Montreal to Elisabeth Hefferan, widow of John Hefferan. John was living at the time in Sherrington, Huntingdon County, Quebec, Canada. John's brother Robert's daughter Jane had her first daughter in Huntingdon, Quebec in 1844. It is possible that the John Ord in Huntingdon could be this John Ord and that his brother Robert may have followed him to Canada. | Ord, John (I12125)
|
| 877 | A later obituary records that one of Hugh's daughters was "Mrs. Hugh Cameron of Russell, Manitoba". An 1881 census match can be found with a Hugh and Mercy Cameron in Eastern Extension, Manitoba, both born in Ontario. However, it is not certain that Mercy is the daughter of Hugh McNaughton. | McNaughton, Mercy (I10891)
|
| 878 | A matching marriage has been found on 19 JUL 1709 in St. Mary's Parish, Portsea, Portsmouth, Hampshire, England. However, given the distance from Downhead there is doubt as to whether or not this is the correct marriage. | Steeds, Edward (I14237)
|

| 883 | A year after Jeanette Black and her husband, John Black arrived in Canada West in1833, her parents Hugh Black and Elizabeth Gilmour and her many siblings settled in Fergus. Hugh and Elizabeth ran an inn and tavern which catered to new immigrants. The inn was the social centre of the nascent community. It served as a post office and and news source. Around 1842 the family moved out of the inn and into Craighead, a limestone farm house built on 100 acres of land. Craighead is a designated historic building in Fergus. Recently, the town has decided to allow visiting health care professionals to live in Craighead Cottage. It is heartening to know that a home built by our ancestors will be welcoming newcomers.

| 888 | Abraham Duncan was born in 1839 in Ireland, possibly in Belfast. He came to Glasgow, Lanarkshire, Scotland, sometime before 1861. Abraham Duncan has not been found in the 1851 census and is presumed to have been in Ireland. In 1861, at age 22, Abraham Duncan was residing at 80 Main Street in Rutherglen, Glasgow. Lanarkshire, Scotland, with his wife Elizabeth Wilson. They were residing with Elizabeth's parents and siblings. Abraham was employed as a labourer. In 1871, at age 32, Abraham Duncan was residing at 26 Wardlawhill St. in Rutherglen, Glasgow, Lanarkshire, Scotland, with his wife and children Margaret Duncan 8 Robert Duncan 6 John Duncan 5 Mary Duncan 3 Abraham Duncan 2 Thomas Duncan 2 Mo Abraham was employed as a labourer on a coal hill. Abraham Duncan died in 1874 in Rutherglen, Glasgow, Lanarkshire, Scotland, at the young age of 35. Coal mining was dangerous work and his premature death may have been work-related. | Duncan, Pvt. Abraham (I5369)

| 889 | Abraham Duncan was born in 1869 and raised in Rutherglen, Lanark, Scotland, a suburb of Glasgow. In 1871 he was 2 years old and residing with his parents and siblings at 26 Wardlawhill St, Rutherglen, Rutherglen, Lanarkshire, Scotland. In 1881, at age Abraham was residing with his widowed mother and siblings at 10 Broad Street, Camlachie, Glasgow Barony, Lanarkshire, Scotland. On 30 Apr 1883, at age 13, Abram Duncan arrived in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada, on the ship, Prussian, from Glasgow, Scotland. He was travelling without family and was on a shipload consisting almost entirely of teenage boys from Scotland. They are all recorded as "colonists". Abraham appears to have been a "home child" sent to the Marchmont Home. (Home Children were part of a British Government poverty-relief program that forcibly sent impoverished children (often without their parents' consent) from Glasgow and elsewhere to Canada to work as indentured farm labourers.) "Faced with this disastrous situation, a number of charitable organizations under the leadership of deeply concerned individuals established homes in which children could receive education and training. Many were relocated to the newly developing countries like Canada, Australia and New Zealand where it was believed they would have the opportunity for a successful life. These individuals devoted their entire lives to this cause. More than 100,000 boys and girls, most between the age of 7 to 14, were brought to Canada between 1860 and 1940 under these programs. The Bernardo Homes brought 35,000 children to Canada. 10,000 children were transported to Belleville to the Marchmont Distribution Home between 1870 and 1925, the boys being placed with local farming families and the girls as domestic workers. "The first small group of children arrived in 1870 under the care of Annie McPherson and were immediately placed on local farms. It was recognized that permanent receiving homes would be required to give the children a place to settle in upon their arrival. That same year, Hastings County, supported by Senator Billa Flint, offered McPherson a home rent-free, the first Marchmont Home, to receive the new arrivals and prepare them for their placements. Marchmont was managed by Ellen Bilbrough. During that year three groups totalling 273 boys and girls arrived. By 1872, the annual arrival of children increased to 371 and the flow of children continued for another 50 years. Farmers were informed of the availability of the children and they applied in large numbers. They were required to sign a contract which indentured the child to the farmer until the age of 18 and included arrangements for wages, clothing, food, shelter and work." (https://quinteartscouncil.org/the-children-of-marchmont/ , https://www.bac-lac.gc.ca/eng/discover/immigration/immigration-records/home-children-1869-1930/Pages/home-children.aspx ) In 1891 Abraham was residing in Sydney, East Hasting, Ontario, Canada, age 19, and working as a farm hand for David Gilbert Roblin (who was born in the USA and is no known relation). Abraham Duncan has not been found in the 1901 census. Abraham married in 1906 in the Methodist church in Belleville, Ontario, Canada to Clarissa Benedict Doughan, by Rev. George Brown. The marriage was witnessed by David Joss and L. E. Brown. David Joss may be a cousin. L. E. Brown may be a relative of the minister as she witnessed several marriages by George Brown. In 1911, at age 38, Abraham Duncan was residing on James Street in Belleville, Hastings, Ontario, Canada, with his wife and no children. He was employed as a labourer in a roller mill. Also residing with them were his cousin, James Orr (b. Apr 1887 in Scotland) and nephew John Duncan (Dec 1891, not the son of Robert Wilson Duncan, as he was in Scotland in 1911). In 1912 or 1913, Abraham Duncan's niece and nephew Margaret Hunter "Maggie" Duncan and Samuel Wilson Duncan came over from Scotland they stayed with Abraham before moving to Hamilton, Wentworth, Ontario, Canada. In 1921, at age 48, Abraham Duncan was residing at 72 Frank St. in Belleville, Hastings, Ontario, Canada, with his wife and son, Donald (9). He was employed as a labourer in a distillery. (This same distillery may be related to Rocco Perri's liquor smuggling. See the notes on Thomas Albert Brown for more details.) In 1928, Abraham's wife died. Abraham Duncan has not been found in the 1931 census. On 19 Nov 1931, at age 59 (sic, 63), Abraham Duncan, a widower, married secondly in Brighton, Northumberland, Ontario, Canada, to Maude Crouter (nee Richardson), widow. | Duncan, Abraham (I5370)

| 893 | According the Llewella McIntyre's notes, Elisabeth Stewart married a McNaughton.
