Regarding your msg concerning Margaret Clelland: You say you have a bible that may have belonged to a James Clelland.
My direct ancester James Clelland, a scotsman with inks to the Stewart kings, settled in the forks of the Cheat River Wv. in or around 1714 or later. He was married to Ann Pierpont as a second wife. He had 14 children, and was a captn in the Revolutinary War. It may have been his son that married Ms Pierpont. I find only one Margaret Clelland listed as a single woman in our linage and have only one relatively late info on her. Have no idea if she is related.
I am greatly interested in the bible and if it lists any of Rev James Clellands children and parents, as in tracing his linage back to Scotland we have no idea how he came here. My cousin Dixie and I have decided the Clellands swam over as we have not found the name on any ship's manifests.
Would much appreciate a reply Thank You
