Here is what I have learned about my family: James McClure (b. around 1826) and spouse Catherine Jeffrey (b. 1831) along with their children William (abt 1869), Richard (b. 1858), James (b. abt 1859), Alexander (b. 14 Jan 1863), Martha (abt 1861), Jane (b. 10 Aug 1865), Margaret (b. 3 Jul 1874) and Catherine (b. abt 1872) left Londerry Ireland in 1881 aboard the SS Circassian piloted by Capt Barrett. They went to Montreal and then west to Brandon. By 1884 James (the father) and daughter Jane had died and that spring (1885) the rest of the family moved to the west coast into Oregon and Vancouver BC. The family originally were tenant farmers in Strabane, Co. Tyrone, N.Ireland. James McClures parents: Richard McClure and Jane Buchanon, Catherine Jeffrey's parents: Alexander Jeffrey and Martha Smith. I am having a hard time tracking these last four folks down - any help out there? Thanks Terry Fish Notify Administrator about this message?
