U.K. CAMERON Family ~ Early 1920s

valwuthrich — 2009-11-04 02:07:06Z

I am trying to find relatives of a HERBERT GEORGE CAMERON lived in the Essex/Middlesex area around the early 1920s. His children were Thomas Charles (Charlie) who came to N.Z. in 1922 another son Herbert and a daughter LILLIAN/ LILY/ LIL.Both Herbert George and his son Charlie were london bus drivers circa 1910-1915. Some say Herbert jnr may have been a grenadier guard at some time, and all I know of Lil is she had a lovely singing voice and was known as the East End Nightingale I assume by friends and family. There has been also a mention of an Alice who would be much younger.
I have no idea of the mothers name although Herbert G. used to call her Fanny but that may have been a nickname.
I am desperate to find this family and ANY information would be really appreciated.

Hi Linda,

No I think that is a different William, I am pretty certain that all of the children from this marriage were born in Ireland

Thanks though

James, Yes, William Wallace Cameron was married to Anna Field. She was his second wife. I can will give you the name of his ancestor who might be able to give you more information. Her name Linda Erkelens"
linda.kaley.erkelens@juno.com. She may have more information on that family. I don't know anymore than what you found on Ancestry. You can check Rootsweb.com - Family Trees. I posted the entire Cameron/Patterson Family onlie. My personal email is jleaven@wyoming.com. Jack

Re: Peter CAMERON

mje8991 — 2009-10-17 18:10:11Z

Hi Diana;
I was looking through some of the postings and came across yours that mentions a William Wallace Cameron. By any chance was this William Wallace married to an Anna Field? If so, I would like to see what information you may have. Anna Field is the sister of my GG Grandfather.
thanks

Hi Jack,
We are descendants of Peter Cameron through his and Julia (Juliana) son William Wallace. I just recently made the connection to Peter. Although I connect to Peter, I don't have a connection to his brothers and sisters or parents. Can you help me on the siblings and brothers and sisters. We have a family story that 5 brothers left Scotland and came to Bath NY. Three of them stayed in NY and started their own towns - Cameron, East Cameron. Our ancestor William Wallace settled on a farm in Ackley, Iowa. I have more information on this story, but you probably have better information.
I would love to hear from you and I am happy to share information.
Diana

Peter Cameron was born 15 Jun 1805 Langholm, Dumfries, Scotland; died 4 Sep 1871 Hannibal, Missouri. He married 19 Aug 1827 Rochester, NY to Julia A. Patterson born 6 Oct 1805 in Canada; died 6 Jul 1883 Independence, Iowa. They had eight children and I know descendants of each line. Please contact me if you think you might be related. I also have the names and dates of Peter's sibblings in Scotland. I don't know if any of them came to America. Jack Leaven

HI,

I have 3 Donald Cameron's in my family. Donald (McKeddy) Cameron was born about 1770 in Nigg, Ross, Cromerty, Scotland and is my 4th great grandfather.

Donald (his son) was born on 9/20/1789 in Nigg, Ross, Cromerty, Scotland making him my 3rd great granduncle.

Then there's Donald born in 1886 in Cariboo, Pictou Co., Nova Scotia and he would be my great, great uncle.

Does any of this help?

Linda

macilwainec — 2009-10-08 05:22:41Z

Hi Julie no problem,
But you must remember that these birth dates from early 1800,s are only approx and can be out by a few years.Let me know if you find your Donald.

Regards
Hector.

Re: Donald CAMERON, Blacksmith

JulieLong94 — 2009-10-08 05:20:55Z

Hi Hector
Many thanks for your response. Your Donald sounds as though he was born too early. From the 1861, 1871 and 1881 census returns - looks like my Donald was born 1819ish. I have now asked a professional researcher to have a look for me as I seem to be really up against a brick wall. But I really appreciate your help - I will have a look just in case. I'll let you know if I have any luck.

Kind Regards

Julie

My G.grandfather William b. Brechin/Angus 1838 had brother John Lyall b. Brechin 1854 whom I cannot find in Scotland? Ithink my John is too young to be ships capt. My William came to Sth Aust. in 1866.

John CAMERON and Wilhelmina (KERR) CAMERON - San Francisco

2009-10-01 01:20:55Z

I am trying to find out about ancestors of John Cameron and Wilhelmina Kerr Cameron. They lived in San Francisco at least from about 1885 to 1910 and probably longer. I believe John Cameron was a ship's captain. I also believe he was of the Erracht rather than Lochiel side of the Camerons. I don't know if either of them were born in Scotland or possibly in Nova Scotia. They were my great grandparents. Their daughter, my grandmother, Blanche Maude Cameron, married Henry Ward Beecher, son of Herbert Foote Beecher, also a ship's captain, who lived in Port Townshend, Washington. Henry Ward Beecher and Blanche Cameron Beecher lived in Seattle, although I believe they met in San Francisco. She graduated from Berkeley in 1906. I'd love to know if Blanche Cameron had any siblings and I'd love to know about the ancestors of John Cameron and Wilhelmina Kerr Cameron. Thanks. Josephine Cameron Beecher.

Looking for my Scots GGG Grandparents. Margaret married John probably around 1800 and then emigrated with her daughter and her son-in-law to Vernon Center, NY around 1836. Daughter was named Mary Cameron MacGregor (1815-1885) and son-in-law was Angus McLean (1815-1853). They had six children, only the first born in Scotland.

John MacGregor stayed in Inverness-shire and ran his cattle/sheep farm, writing grumpy letters for many years to his relatives in the States. Any leads would be welcome!

Re: John CAMERON

Genealogy is big business, and genealogical DNA is just another business transaction, a very expensive option. Genealogical DNA cannot prove the name of the common ancestor [many Camerons have a common ancestor]or what generation, etc.

Gilbert CAMERON b. 1854 in Argyll, Scotland to Charles CAMERON and Jane Blair

susqsue — 2009-09-16 14:54:05Z

Looking for info or descendants of the following CAMERON family: summarized

Gilbert Cameron b. 1854 in Argyll, Scotland to Charles Cameron and Jane Blair.

Charles b 1814/15 in Renfrew, Scotland, son of Dougal/Dougald Cameron and Jean Sayer

Jane Blair was dtr of Donald Blair and Catherine (MC GLASHARE?)

Charles m. Jane Blair in 1848 in Kilmichael Glassary, Argyll, Scotland
Charles and Jane also Charles Jr, b. 1861/2 and Catherine, b. 1856, d. 1857 age 13 mos 1day, b. in Lochgilphead. Informant for Catherine's death was her uncle, William Cameron.

Gilbert Cameron shows up in 1881 in W. Ham, England, then immigrates to US. Here he married to Caroline Leonard (she may have gone by another name, ie Carline, etc...) and they had a number of children. Gilbert d. in Peekskill, NY in 1909.

I have census, birth and death info on Gilbert. I cannot locate him, nor his father nor brother, in 1871.
The 1881 England census shows him as married, yet no wife resides with him. He is staying at a boarding home and his brother Charles Jr resides there with him.

I have 1861 census on Gilbert and his parents.

Hello

Just to let you and other readers know that the Clan Cameron DNA Project has recently nailed down the DNA pattern for direct male descendants of the Erracht line.

If you know of any male descendants of Capt. John, we can confirm (or open up other lines of inquiry) your family stories.

More information on the project is at
