Hi, just in case you don't get my other message, I am Sandra Welsh. (Not the Welsh's you are looking for) My grandfather's (Karl) brother was Harry Dick and I have all the info on the family that is available. My mom is Marie (Dick) Darrach, and we live in Ontario, Canada. Her brother Clarke and sister Eileen still live near Moore's Mills, N.B. and take care of the house. Let me know if you want any info.

Re: THOMAS DICK of Tanfield near Edinburgh, c1829.

davidt184 — 2009-10-01 00:01:44Z

Further to my earlier posting on Thomas Dick:
I now believe him to have been the manager of the Edinburgh Oil Gaslight Company, which was based at Tanfield, (now within the city of Edinburgh.) He is known to have been there around 1816 - 1818, and possibly for several years later.

If anyone recognises Mr. Dick from the given information, and can offer any further information, I will be pleased to hear from you.

Thank you,

David.

Dick family from Saintfield, Co. Down

alanmyndecrawford — 2009-09-28 18:09:14Z

My 4x great-grandparents John and Susanna (McGibbon) Dick were from Saintfield Co. Down. They left Ireland in 1846 and settled with their family in Moore's Mills, NB, Canada. John's sibling were William, Betty, Nancy, Joseph and James Dick. Most of these siblings stayed behind in Ireland. Is there anyone out there who are descended from these siblings with information of any kind?

The Dick family lived in Lisdalgan, Saintfield, Co. Down back to at least 1750 as I found out through the N. Ireland archive center.

Hi Ruth,
I'm sorry I'm afraid our Johns are not the same. Ours all were all born in Bathgate, West Lothian back to the mid 1600's.
Good luck with your search.

Here are a couple of references, as I have recorded them in my Legacy file. You may or may not have seen these sources.

MARRIAGE, RESIDENCE: Edna Lowry, A Family Record of Pioneer Scottish Families in Lanark County and Their Descendants, Almonte, ON, nd. She writes, "Catherine, the youngest girl, 5 years old on her arrival, married Jas. Smith and lived at Claybank, near Arnprior" (p. 83). She gives the marriage date as 5 May 1843. She says there may be other children.

MARRIAGE: Catherine Dick and James Smith, both of Lanark; officiating minister was James Smith (?), Baptist. Some Early Lanark County Marriages 1830-1869, Kingston Branch, Ontario Genealogical Society, 1993, p. 7.

I would be interested in your line of descent from Catherine. I'm descended from Catherine's older brother, John Dick (1803-1862).

Re: Dick Family

LiliinTO — 2009-08-30 03:45:47Z

Am a descendant of Catherine Dick - the second youngest of the Dick children who came out in 1821 - she was 5 years old! ... if you are still making your work available, I would love to learn more. Please e-mail me at lili dot stpt at hotmail dot com

John Fulton Dick from Glasgow to Portland Oregon

marylindsay1 — 2009-04-22 13:19:29Z

John Fulton DICK was the son of Crawford DICK and Ann Anderson BAIRD. Ann was my 2x great aunt and Crawford was my uncle by marriage. Several years ago, someone posted a query about John Fulton Dick. John had 3 brothers: David Baird Dick, Christopher Fletcher Dick and Andrew Baird Dick.
The person never replied to my reply to her, so I am putting these names out again. I have a lot of info about Crawford and Ann, and would like to exchange my info for info about my cousins. John married Agnes Black CHEAPE and they had 3 children: Agnes Fletcher, Crawford Fulton and Elizabeth Black. The family appears to have stayed in Oregon. David married an "Annie" and lived and died in Boise, Idaho without issue, Christopher died single in Glasgow in 1900 and Andrew married Jessie KENNEDY in Glasgow in 1902, emigrated to the USA in 1903. He seems to have gone to Idaho to David, but Jessie is not with him. He lists his brother David as his next of kin on the 1918 WWI Draft registration on which he gives his residence as San Francisco. Andrew is last found in San Francisco on the 1920 census as a roomer in a boarding house.

Re: ALEXANDER DICK

buzzygarden — 2009-06-26 15:48:26Z

Just happened upon your most interesting obit of the above - he is a GG uncle of my husband. I've just started searching for sibs of this Alexander, but it may interest you that one of his older brothers had a mother-in-law by the name of WADDELL. Also, I have Alexander DICK as born Glenisla, Angus which is a rather remote parish, Dundee being the nearest city.

Would love to hear from anyone descended from his parents, John DICK (about 1818 Glenisla -1877 Glenisla) & Jannet EDWARD(S) (about 1814 Glenisla - tbc 1895 Dundee). They had several children - the IGI gives a possible 11 - but I only have details of 4 of them.

Thank you again for a great posting.

Re: Harmon Dick

kushanku — 2009-04-12 04:54:48Z

Harmon Dick is my 4Th great-grand father. The story about Loch Lomond to my knowledge is true. I got this from a synopsis of an address by Harry C. Dick made at a reunion near Baker's Summit, Blair County, PA in August 1933. This and other info about the Dick Family can be found at the Martinsburg Library in the Liebegott Room. This story was received from a letter from G. H. Helsel dated 9/28/54, evidently sent to Liebegott. The story goes as follows: Harmon Dick, born near Loch Lomond, Scotland, 1756, emigrated to Hesse Castle, Germany, and came to America with the Hessians who were hired by the British Government to subdue the American colonists then in revolt. They stopped at Trenton to celebrate their Christmas festivities in December, 1776, under Colonel RAhl. Washington crossed the Delaware River on Christmas night. The river was blocked with ice and snow, as we know. He swept by the British on country roads, appeared at Trenton, captured 1000 prisoners, slew their leader and returned to Valley Forge with the loss of only four men (2 killed and 2 frozen to death). Among these prisoners was a man who stood 6 foot 2 inches in his stocking feet and tipped the scales at 253 pounds dressed. He immediately took the oath of allegiance to the United Colonies and was a staunch friend of Washington, and was ever afterward loyal to the American cause. He became a Federalist at the Organization of the Federal Government. His name was Harmon Dick, the progenitor of the Dick Clan. He settled and homesteaded on a farm now occupied by Frank Smith, on the Halter Creek, near Roaring Spring. End of Story.
This story reads like a legend and should be taken with a grain of salt. That is until some verification is made. Hope this helped you.

Re: Mary Dick from New zealand

carleedick — 2009-05-26 03:09:05Z

My grandfather, Sterling Dick, had a relative that emigrated to New Zealand in the early 1900s from Nova Scotia Canada. Him and my grandmother went to New Zealand on vacation and when they rented a car the girl behind the counter told them that she had been searching for family members since her father brought his family from Canada when he got a job at a mine. The girl was in her 20s at the time and this was probably 20 or so years ago. Turned out the girl was a niece or cousin of my grandfather.
