Searching for Information on Robert Anderson and his son John Thomas (?John
Robert) Anderson. John Thomas was my g.grandfather from Burgeo, Newfoundland. He married Jemima Gunnery and they had 1 child, my grandmother, Jessie Anderson (Conrad). She was born the year he died , 1900 off the Grand Banks of Newfoundland. Robert Anderson was married to Elizabeth Stickland daughter of Henry Strickland and Sarah Skeard. It is believed that the original families of Anderson came from Scotland, but I have no documentation or any idea from which part. I have a book "A Souvenir of Burgeo's Come Home Year in 1988" which includes a diary of the area written by Joseph Small in 1925. The history is hard to track as there were no records as far as I can find that date back to the mid 1700-early 1800. Any info would be helpful.

Thanks,

Marilyn Mercer
