Re: Hiram A McLeod of Florida

scottygirl21 — 2009-11-07 04:35:34Z

Hiram did marry, but they didn't live together later in life. Her name was Temperance ??? They were married by a cousin in GA that was a preacher. She applied for a widows pension after Hiram died. Hiram did take Judah Benjamin to Cuba. There is a book about Lighthouses & keepers in Florida and it has a detailed story about it. I think he might have stayed a while as there were several Hiram McLeods on born in Cuba--though non state he was the father. When I opened the book to Hiram's picture, I almost fainted. He was the spitting image of my Grandfather, William Shefton McLeod. I don't recall the title of the book as it is packed away. Judah Benjamin wrote about it himself. And later in life Hiram gave a few interviews to reporters about how they made the escape. I'll have to see if I can find the book.

Re: Malcolm, Norman, William, & Murdoch Mcleod--Tryon County NY to Ontario as loyalists

jonahm78 — 2009-11-06 01:44:50Z

Kim, I am descended from loyalist William McLeod from Charlottenburgh Glengarry ONT. Supposedly his daughter married loyalist Henry Stuart of Cornwall Glengarry Ontario.

Have you found anything new? I have seen mention of him being related to Norman McLeod of the Talisker McLeod branch and Malcolm McLeod.

Hi Maureen,
Don't know if you are still checking this board.
Of course, we now know that Donald and Catherine's first daughter, Margaret, died in infancy and never came to Australia. Also that the Mcleods came out on the "Midlothian" in 1837, not the "William McNicol"
I haven't had any luck with the parents of either D or C but I think I have recently found the burial of Catherine. I have yet to confirm this but it is the first breakthrough in 30 years!!
Hope to hear from you sometime - I still have your private email, unless you have changed it.
Cheers,
AEnone.

McLeods in SC and Mississippi

gaillivi — 2009-10-05 14:03:46Z

I am looking for John B. McLeod who was born in Lairg, Scotland, and died in Marion, SC. And for his father, who was either Daniel or Norman. Norman could have been the grandfather. All left Glenelg about 1770 and landed at the port of Wilmington, NC, settling later in Fayetteville. Then some moved down to SC and some to Mississippi.

thanks,
Please let me know if you have any info.

you can email me at gail.livi@gmail.com also

Re: McLeod family from Ross & Cromarty, Scotland

gaillivi — 2009-10-03 13:21:52Z

Some of my McLeods lived in Ross & Cromarty too. They came from the Isle of Skye, then to Glenelg. This was Norman McLeod and Janette Morrison and their sons. I don't know how we would ever connect them unles you know more about the female McLeod (Dolina?)

Norman emigrated from Glenelg in 1770-75 and landed at the port of Wilmington, NC. From there they spread out to SC and eventually a few to Mississippi.

We were never in Australia, but we are probably distantly related.

Australian McLeod brothers die in two world wars

StephenBlackwell — 2009-09-27 06:11:44Z

I am looking for information on three McLeod brothers:
John Alexander McLeod KIA Gallipoli 16/8/1915
Leslie John McLeod died on HMAT Kyarra 29/8/1915
Othel Keith McLeod died of injuries New Guinea 9/9/1943

Their parents were Alexander and Elizabeth Margaret McLeod. Alexander was a police officer and the family lived in several Victorian country towns including Yarra Glen and Daylesford.

My interest stems from a bequest by Elizabeth to create a stained glass window (image attached) in their memory. No one seems to remember the boys and I'd like to correct that. I have the war records on each son but would like to know more about their family. I'd also like to obtain images of the sons. I am happy to share the information I currently have.

genelistmom — 2009-09-05 17:44:02Z

Looking for any info on my McLEOD/McASKILL/COLLINS family living in the St. Louis and Maplewood area. They came thru Texas some time in the late 1850's or early 1860's then into North Carolina, was told there were McLEOD's & McASKILL's family living there when Donald McLEOD w/wife Georgina McASKILL and a number of their children with them from Sutherland Scotland, don't know how long they were there or if any one stayed there. After NC they went to Crawford Co., MO., they were there for a number of years and then they went to St. Louis and Maplewood, MO. My g-grandfather was a lawyer, Alexander McLEOD in St. Louis & Maplewood(?). I'm not sure of the time line from St. Louis and Crawford Co., but they went back and forth and I know that they owned land in both places.. Donald McLEOD b. abt. 1806 Sutherland, Scotland..wife, Georgina b. Sutherland, Scotland,abt. 1815, d. St. Louis,.. the following daughter's & son's all born in Sutherland Scotland & came to America, to Crawford Co., MO. then to St. Louis & Maplewood and back to Crawford CO., MO (a number of them stayed in the St. Louis area)...(mine) Alexander b.abt.1858, d. 1932, George b.abt.1855, Murdo b. abt.1848, daughters, Johana b. abt.1846, Ann b. abt 1851, and John was born in Canada abt.1853. Alexander McLEOD married Sarah J. COLLINS, probably in St. Louis and then they had their family. What I need is some kind of info on Alexander & Sarah J. COLLINS McLEOD, I think her dad's name is Patrick COLLINS & mom is Sarah J. don't know her maiden name, but any info on them would be great. Some of the other names in this family is CLIBURN, MOORE, WALSH & ROBERTS. Thank you for any help you can give me and I hope this info will help someone else too.

Re: Donald A. McLeod

gaillivi — 2009-07-24 13:16:42Z

Do you know anything else about the John L. MacLeod you mentioned? I thought John B. MacLeod was my ancestor, but I can't prove it, so maybe it was John L. My ancestor died in Wayne County, Mississippi, and I am looking for the John McLeod who was born in Laig, Scotland about 1772 and died in Mississippi

I am working some with a geneologist in Isle of Skye, and she has in her data base at least 40 John NacLeods born in that time period around 1772.

I am working back from the fact that my great grandfather, John Larkin Gray, married Mary Ann McLeod, who was the daughter of Hulda Hargrave or Hargrove and Roderick McInnis McLeod. So I am looking for that Roderick's father/

Any info appreciated.

McLeods from Scotland via SC to Mississippi

gaillivi — 2009-07-20 13:07:56Z

Still looking to establish which John MacLeod is the father of Roderick Innis MacLeod. It may have been John B. MacLeod
who according to Ancestry was born in Laig, Scotland, and died in Marion County, South Carolina. Roderick ended up in Mississippi.

Re: mcleod paisley scotland

gaillivi — 2009-07-31 12:23:29Z

Just yesterday I ordered fiche from the LDS library of old Parrish records of Scottish Births, Marriages, and Deaths.

I just hope they will not be in Gaelic when I get them. If you will post the part of Scotland where he was born or married, etc. and full name, I will try to look for him when I get the records.

I am looking in Sutherland and Ross and Cromarty for a John B. MacLeod who may have been born in 1772 in Lairg, Sutherland, Scotland, and then emigrated to US, eventually to Marion, SC. Also for his possible father Daniel and his father Norman.

Or go to your local LDS center and get them to check Parrish (c hurch records.

Re: Mcleod family history

I am working on McLeods, but ti may not bve the same line. Can you tell me whether you mean Leakesville, MS or what state and county. That's the first thing.

My McLeods came from Scotland to North Carolina about 1770 and moved on through Sourth Carolina, finally settling largely in Wayne Territory, later Wayne County, MS
Also check the MacLeod web sites by googling.

John B. McLeod

gaillivi — 2009-08-17 01:50:23Z

Father in Marion, SC, indicates son of Daniel. No mother's name. Believed to have had a son named Roderick, who was my direct ancestor. Any ties to a John B. McLeod or just John McLeod with a father named either Daniel or Norman in the Carolinas appreciated.

Re: Hiram A McLeod of Florida

lindys_mom — 2009-08-15 17:19:23Z

I have Henry and Hiram back to their birth in Georgia but have hit a brick wall with their parents. Famiy legend says that they are the children of Norman McLeod and Katherine McIntosh of Georgia but I have spoken with members of that line and can find no connection (and they have extensive documemtation). There are many documented connections in the Florida Mcleods. They first appear as siblings in an early Florida census as Norman, Hiram, Henry and Flora and that's as old as I have right now. I do have documentation of that other Georgia line if you'd like me to check it for you.

Luby01 — 2009-07-20 03:25:39Z

Hi,

I notice you posted several years ago but who knows, you might still be out there!

I too, descend from an Alexander McLeod of Skye who roughly fits your time frame. My Alexr resided in Breakish and married Christy McKinnon in Strath, having a couple of children there before emigrating to Australia in 1839.

I wondered if they might be the couple whom you referred to as having had children in Strath, I know they do pop up on the IGI records. Thought my info my put an end to your wondering?

I am looking for information on descendants of Donald A. McLeod ( born Lancaster Twp, Glengarry Co Ontario ), and Blanche L. Baldry ( born Chesterville, Ontario ). Donald was the son of Duncan McLeod and Jessie ( Janet ) Leslie; after their death, it appears that two McLeod aunts finished raising Donald and his brother, John L. McLeod. Any information would be helpful. I would very much like to locate living descendants also if at all possible.

Re: Alexander McLeod 1801ish, NC????

richardmcleod170 — 2009-09-04 14:36:22Z

I'm sure there's an Alexander in my line somewhere, but a confirming connection could be made if I could discover which Norman is mine. He was the father (though a little doubt) of George Washington McLeod (born 1820) and a number of other children: Jacob, Agnes, James, Hariett, Robert, Norman, and Roderick. This Norman probably married Elizabeth Cade in Williamsburg County, South Carolina. Does this match with any of yours? You can reply to my email richardmcleod@bellsouth.net.
