Hi June. I have yet another William Gillespie, one of 3 brothers. This William was born 17 May 1752 (poss. Scotland). William fought in Revolutionary War; his widow later received his pension. The family lived in Windsor, CT, but records have some of them in Kirkland, NY shortly after William's death in 1802. I have info on William and his descendents, but all I know of the brothers is the story passed down that the three of them traveled to America. One of them supposedly drowned, but I don't know whether it was during the journey to America or long after. There has been a "John" in several generations of this ancestor's line, so I suspect that one of the brothers was John, but of course it's a common name.
