I really would appreciate anything you can send. The first clue I had
of
James Finnie's siblings came when I looked at the Family Tree Maker
World
Family Tree Disk No 1, Pedigree #1752. This pedigree was sent in by
James L.
Robinson of Arvada, Colorado. He had received the information about the
siblings from a relative, Gary Finnie about 1988. James Robinson is
also a
descendant of James Finnie b. 8 Mar 1815 in Ayrshire, Scotland. In my
notes
I see that George Stewart has a family tradition about three brothers
coming
to Canada. (Yes, I know, sometimes thats a lot of folklore). Anyway,
information George had, including the names James Finnie and Jane Love,
make
me think it might very well be true. Thanks for your address. I'll
start
getting things together for you. Thanks for contacting me. Karna
