James b. 1694 is often posted at Rootsweb World Connect as one of many sons of Gentleman Charles Colquhoun/Colhoun of Letterkenny, Donegal Co. Ireland. There are historical records for Charles(re Seige of Derry) but I have found no valid records showing the names of his children. Are the names of James' wife and children from his 1772 will and cemetery listings?I am currently rsearching two of James supposed brothers who are sometimes (but not always) listed as sons of Charles. They are Thomas (1670) who came to PA and Glad/Claud (1695/6) who did not come to PA. None of the posts at Rootsweb or Ancestry show any proof of these sons of Charles--so much of it is probably imaginary.
