Cobden, ON Canada - Sunday, January 10, 1999 at 10:44:36 (EST)John THOMPSON married Margaret HENNESSEE. Their daughter, Annie Sophia was born in abt. 1868. (All born in Canada)
Annie married Edmund McAllister on July 30, 1882 in Chicago, Ill. I believe the Thompson's were living in Newboro, Ontario in 1917 as I have pictures from the McAllisters photo album with Newboro, Ont., 1917 written on them. Family lore says that they always lived in Ontario.
Any information on the above people appreciated. I will gladly share what I have on the McAllisters.

Inverary, On Canada - Saturday, January 09, 1999 at 08:29:34 (EST)I am seeking any information concerning any possible children from the marriage of Nathaniel KETCHUM b. 1785 to Mary Delong b.abt. 1780. They are mentioned in a book, "The Hub Of The Rideau", and are said to be methodist, and moved to S. Crosby Twp, Leeds Co.
I am looking for siblings and parents for my gr gr gr grandfather, Nathaniel KETCHUM b. 03-03-1830 in Lisbon Ontario, and it is possible that this couple could be older parents--or not so old grandparents. Nathaniel's father was to have been born in Vermont. This Nathaniel (b. 1785), was said to be born in N. Adams Twp. Mass, right at the Vt. border, in 1782 by one source. Another source said, Conn. as his birth place.) My Nathaniel's mother was suppose to be born in Mass.
My family homepage is found at:
