Am looking for information on the family of Col. Alexander McKee who married a Shawnee woman and was a British Indian Affairs Agent in late 1700's. His son, Capt.Thomas McKee, married Theresa Askin, daughter of John Askin. Apparently, a daughter or granddaughter of Thomas's, named Mary McKee, married Arthur Rankin. They had at least 2 sons named George Rankin and Arthur McKee Rankin. Capt. Thomas Mckee had a great-grandson named William J. McKee who married Mary Baby eldest daughter of Charles Baby and great-granddaughter of Jacques Baby. I have a copy of Col. Alexander McKee's will, in which he mentions leaving everything to his son Thomas, but he also mentions a James Francis McKee and Catherine Mckee as children to be educated with monies he has left for them. Robert Surphlet is supposedly Alexander McKee's wife's nephew. Only known info on his last whereabouts was somewhere in Onterio. any info on any of these people or their children or siblings or dates would be greatly appreciated. please email:
