My 2 great grandmother was Jane Lovat, said by her son in the 1901 Potts
Family book, to be of the Frazier clan of Scotland. Jane was born 2 May 1791
in Ireland, probably Co. Cavan. She married Alexander Potts abt 1819 there.
They had 8 children there.



Several of their children came to Ontario, Canada, in the early to mid
1800s, bef 1851. about that time, they decided to join those older children,
and brought with them several of their younger children. They settled in or
near Belleville, Ontario.



Jane's half sister married Alexander's brother, William. I don't know her
name, could be their mother that they shared? I did find a William Potts
whose wife was Elizabeth, in the Ontario census. Could this be the half
sister?



Anyway, I am looking for information on Jane's ancestry. Thanks for any
help.
