Hi Ken, I am the granddaughter of John Harold McBriar. His only sibling was James who died in WW1. Their parents were James McBriar and Elizabeth Watson McBriar. James had a sister Bella (or Isabella) who died sometime in the 1950's. They were all from Belfast but James had a brother (name unknown) who moved to Rhode Island before the First World War. That family had a family tree researched in Britain that traces the McBriars back to the Kilmarnochs in southern Scotland. My mother saw that tree when she was young and the American cousins came to visit.
