Alice Geddes 1846 : Short Biography

Comments

Her father was Andrew and mother was Alice Hanna in Boconnel.  THey went to Lurgan Fisrt Presbyterian Church.  Several of the kids, Andrew and George, went to Amsterdam, NY.  I have some gravestone pictures of them.  If you woud like them, I'll post them or e-mail them. . Nathaniel was in  Manhattan, NY when he married, I think.  William John was thought to have emigrated to Australia, also.

Thanks, Kat  -- I have now received your email and the heaps of information and photos. 

Great to connect, and to fill some gaps !

Alice Geddes was my great-grandmother.

My mother Olive Jeanette Horrocks was the daughter of Rebecca Jane Brown, who was the daughter of Alice Geddes.

Hi - not sure if this is allowed so please let me know if now. Alice Geddes was my maternal great-great grandmother. My mother Laura Marion (1934 - ) is the daughter of Robert Archibald ( 1908 - 1982) who was the son of James Andrew (1868 - 1945). James Andrew was the first born of Alice and John Brown. I have a bit more info on John Brown (1841 - 1916) if interested.

Hi, Janelle   ...    for sure we are related  -- I have Robert Archibald B and James Andrew B in my tree.  Robert Archibald is (was) my first cousin once removed - James Andrew B was my "great uncle".

Would be great to follow up  - seems you can fill a few blank spots.

How about private email to me :  james@jameshuey.com
