Hello,
I do not have much to go on.
I would like to find the line of McCallums my Neil McCallum belongs to.
Parents and siblings.


Neil McCallum was born in Scotland year unknown
Spouse:Mary Patterson from Scotland born at sea around the year 1836.

Possibly Neil was born around the 1836 also.

I do not have any census records before 1881

Where they are found in 1881 Census
Chatham,Kent Ontario
Mary is already widowed.

Mary
Children all born in Ontario
John
Daniel
Mary
Neil
Malcolm
Margaret

Children not on Census arlead married
Katherine (McCallum)
Jeanette (McCallum)
Anna (Kirby)

Mary and all her children move to Huron County Michigan by the year of 1883.
I have much of the information since then from an elder McCallum lady who has since past. I have not found an obit for Mary Patterson McCallum yet,but have read alot in the paper "local happenings"

Any information on this McCallum line is greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Christine

Hi Christine,

I'm curious to know if the son to Mary Patterson McCallum and Neil McCallum also named Neil was born in October of 1870.

My great-grandfather was Neil McCallum born in Ontario in October 1870 and married a Margaret (have no idea what her maiden name was). They appear in the 1901 Census in Vancouver, BC and had three daughters Maud, Bessie and Mabel.

Hello,
My McCallum family moved to Huron County Michigan.
Neil Jr. Married a Mercy A Holmes there.
Neil McCallum and Mary Patterson are his parents.

Its to say that there not realted, Ill look through my papers. I have never been able to find my Neil.
Neil Sr. did not go with his wife to Huron County,

There seems to be alot of Neils

Thanks Christine, I guess I can eliminate that particular Neil from my branch... and yes, there do seem to be quite a few Neils. All part of the fun I guess.

I appreciate your prompt reply.

Cheers!
