I received an e-mail from screen name ricia rose (Pat) that has me excitedly
going down another path. Pat found John Cameron age 25 years old in 1870
(right age!) living in Millie Lacs, Co. John (25) is living with three other
people in Greenbush, 004
P. Cameron, 21yrs old (right age for Permelia), L. Cameron (female) age 18,
I do not know who this is. The last, and proof that this is my John, is Amos
Hoyt who lived with John just about everywhere he goes. The REAL interesting
part is that I had always assumed that John came from Glengarry because of
Daniel Cameron his neighbor. but L. Cameron was born in Penn. so was
Permelia (I already knew that). To make things more confusing, A Daniel
Cameron was his neighbor in Millie Lacs as well. It would seem that John was
poss. more naturalized than I had thought. I have his Citizen Papers that
were effective in 1883. They state that he had been in the U.S. for at least
5 years. Things are getting interesting now.
Thanks, Dean Cameron
