Steven,and Stephanie:
My documented ancestor Hugh Wallace was bn abt 1790Craigie, by Kilmarnock, Ayr, Scotland; his fa name was William Wallace(fr Scottish Church rcds)Perhaps a bro John also bn Kilmarnock district.Hugh Wallace married Janet McLean in Loudoun District Jan 23, 1818.`Janet McLean b 22 May 1801 fa name probably David; Kilmarnock. Dau Agnes was b. 28 Jan 1819. Hugh and Janet left Scotland and arrived in Canada Dec 1823;son Stephen Hugh Wallace b. 28 Jan 1824 in Canada.
Family listed on 1870 Hardin Co, TN Census.
Stephen Hugh head of house; m Polonia Cummings 25 Jul 1860. Jennetta, or Janet, McCane Wallace, mother, in household.Apparently father Hugh Wallace had died. Family was not located after Canada, 1823 until this census.
Stephen Hugh settled his family in Searcy County AR about 1874. One of his daughters, Mary Elizabeth Wallace b 9 Feb 1864 married Humphrey Posey Kuykendall 24 Apr 1882 at Providence, Searcy Co., AR.
Could there be a link with the Ayrshire Scotland line? Where the family migrated to in 1824 from Canada is unknown until 1870 TN.
