Jane Dobbie was my great, great, great-grandmother.It is my understanding that immediately after marrying William Harvey Begg, she immigrated with him to Ohio.They had a farm outside the town of Columbus Grove in that state.They had nine children, including my great, great-grandfather, John Andrew Begg.Jane died on Jan. 19, 1883 in Columbus Grove.
I know absolutely nothing about her antecedents in Scotland.In fact, all I know about her pre-immigration life was that she was born in Bannockburn in 1812.I'm am similarly clueless about the Beggs.William Harvey's father was apparently William, a miner in Cumbernauldshire.
Do you have any pre-immigration info on the Dobbies or Beggs?
