County Ireland XO

Edit profile to show place of migration

William Ferguson and Sarah (Scott) Ferguson were both born in Ireland and emigrated together or separately to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania where they raised five children. One was Sadie/Sarah (Ferguson) Wilcutts (1862-1931) who was my great grandmother.

It is possible that William Ferguson’s parents were William Lee Ferguson (1807-1890) and Euphemia Dobson (1808-1896) who was from Edinburgh and they married on 22 October 1827. Euphemia may be the daughter of Matthew Dobson. I am looking for any evidence that would support these claims.

I have searched through Rootsireland.ie and IrishGenealogy.ie unsuccessfully.
