This is great! I had someone research the Edmiston family for me back to James(father was James and mother Letitia Henderson) and now he is going further back. It should take a few months. John's (your great grandfather)younger brother William is my great grandfather. He married Margaret Branagh and they had four children Elizabeth, Rose Ann, James and Mae. Throughout the report the name Edmiston and Edmistone is used. Rose Ann is my grandmother who married Brinsley Donovan. Is this the correct family? If so we are related. I have been trying to trace the family in the U.S. also. My grandmother never spoke about her family so it has been very hard to find them. Rose lived in New Jersey, Pennsylvania and California. I have been able to trace her sisters but not James. He is my dead end.
I have birth, marriage, immigration and death dates for the family back to James if you need any info. I also found a book titled The Sterling Years by James Edmiston and I am trying to find out if he is a relation. I also received an email from a lady that was researching and writing a book about all the Edmistons. I am also trying to get in touch with her also. My email address is [email protected]. I also have a family website that I can post most of this info on if needed. We have a lot of info to exchange, this is going to be fun!!
