Message Board Post:
I am looking for info on three brothers from Scotland: William Stirrat/Sterrett/Stirrett
who was living in Rising Sun by 1838 and died there 1843-44; David (b. 1810-12); and James
(b. 1814; d. 1864, Portsmouth, VA). David and James arrived in NY in 1833, and "went
to Rising Sun because Alex Jamison, a fellow passenger, had a relative there."
Alex Jamieson and James Stirrat married sisters, Janet and Nancy Lee Jamieson, daughters
of Margaret Jamieson Boyle and stepdaughters of James Boyle (buried Rising Sun 1838). Two
of their half-sisters married Dr. George Gillespie and William Gillespie - any info on
them as well? Thanks!
