Hello
Yes, that Andrew Riddell and Mary Jane Yule are of Lanark County Settlers in the eastern part of the Province of Ontario. ( South of Ottawa). This group is not connected to mine. However, I do know that there was alady here in Ottawa by the name of Charlotte Riddell who did some research on that line. She died in 1992. Her husband John is not interested in any contact.
My Andrew Riddell is from Roxburgshire as well. Settled in Lincoln County Niagara in 1850 with his daughters and son. The elder moved on to Strathroy ( Near London) and opened a Woollen Mill with his son in law. The family offspring stayed behind in Niagara at Beaverdams and St. Catharines. The son also named Andrew, lived in St.Catharines and operated a Stove and Metal works business. He was also Fire Chief, Waterworks Commissioner for St. Cathariens and served 2 terms as Mayor. I am a descendant of that line.
Andrew Riddell
Formerly of St. Catharines and living in Ottawa
