You may not know about the ancestry of your family member, PLEASE, read all of the following, because they COULD tie into your family lines.
I am trying to find ANYONE that is researching any of the following:
Alexander (Alex) Hillman Black, b. 12 Aug 1851, Ireland; d. 1 May 1929, Vancouver, BC, Canada. His parents were James Black (born in Scotland) and Mary Hillman (born in Ireland). Reportedly, he was born in Ulster. he was a member of the Orange Order in Manitoba, and was reputed to be a "remittance man", paid an annual stipend NOT to return home.
He married Jemima Johnston about 1875 in Canada. The had the following children, all born on a farm in Greenridge/Arnaud, Manitoba, Canada:
James Alexander Black, b. 11 Jun 1877, d. 12 Dec 1901 in Winnipeg. Married Annie Bertha Hodgins (1879- ) 12 Jun 1899 in Winnipeg.

She died 5 Aug 1977 in Portland, Oregon. She married 1) Peter Norman Stewart (1881-1958) and had 4 children, divorced and married 2) Richard L. Fry (1882-1949). She was my paternal grandmother.
Joseph Alexander Black, b. 11 Oct 1891; m. Katherine Mary Piemontier 22 Feb 1922, Carman, Manitoba
Isabella Cecelia Black, b. 24 Oct 1894; d. 24 Mar 1895

I would very much like to connect with anyone that descends from ANY of the above people. I have some data on a few of these people, and a great deal of data on the Stewart line.
If anyone does descend from any of these folks, they are also part Native American, as Jemima Johnston was Métis, descending from James Johnston and and Mary Foulds who were both at least half indian.
