Indentured Servants from Scotland, need directions and help?
Can anyone tell me how to trace an individual whom would have come to the USA from Scotland as an Indentured Servant.
My great-grandmother Elizabeth GALLOWAY (1Sep1868-19Oct1937) came to the USA as an Indentured Servant. It is my understanding that her parent where unable to care for her and that at age 9 or 19 she came to the this continent. I do not know if she came to the USA or Canada.
I do know that she married William FARR from Hamilton, Ontario, Canada sometime around 1892/95. They settled in Buffalo, Erie Co., New York, USA. William was a bricklayer.
