I have recently found my g-grandfather's immigration data on Ancestry.com and found his parents and siblings. Until that time I had no one to connect him to. As I researched the family I found them on a 1870 census record. My g-grandfather was Alexander Morrison. He had an older sister named Ann. They were born in Ireland, Ann in abt 1843, and Andrew in 1844. Ann is listed with the family on the shipping record and at the time of the 1870 census she is missing from the family but there is an Ann living in the next dwelling on the census with her husband Geo. MacElwe, age 32, listed as a miner, born in Wales.
As the MacElwe name is so unusual I was thrilled to find your page on the net and realize that it was after all probably the correct spelling and there are others with possible information on this family.
The family was living in Mahony City, St, Louis, Missouri and they consisted of George, Ann, and children William age 8, Alex age 4, and Lucy age 3. I am convinced that Ann is my Ann Morrison as her mothers name was Lucy, and she had brothers named William and Alex.
I would be so pleased if you could find a connection with more information to contribute to my family. Hopefully we can be of service to each other at filling in more blanks on our family tree.
