        Who were Hugh Arbuthnot married Margaret Keith? ... some of whose "descendants" are contained within a book by Jackie Dean Miller selling at $45. 
Response:  Hugh and Margaret were alive 1404-1419  - Table a2 .  This book is NOT a book of the descendants of Hugh & Margaret and is not authorised, approved or recommended by anybody within the AFA. The title is misleading; we understand the book shows the link between Keith - Johnson - Isaacs - Miller.

32    Date:          18 April 2002
        From:          Toby Arbuthnot 
        Who is:       Charles Arbuthnot Lock. Born England 19 Oct 1911. Naturalised as an American in Wyoming
RESPONSE: While reseaching my own family I came across a Charles Lock who was my Great Grandmothers brother. He was born around 1886/87 in Edgefield Norfolk England and at the time of the 1901 Census was age 13 and a stockman on farm. He was living with his family: - Father Samuel, mother Mary Ann, brother Charles, sisters Miriam and Sarah (my great gran). We know he emigrated to America as a young man and I found Charles Arbuthnot Lock on the Ellis Island site.  This Charles seems to be the same person. He came from Edgefield, was 22yrs and 2mths old on 19th June 1909. He sailed on the St Louis and gave his destination address as Redlands Ranch, Wyoming. While the dates do not seem to fit with your enquiry the name (somewhat unusual) and Wyoming connection suggest this is the person you are looking for? I believe decendants of Charles Lock are currently living in Maryland. Jenny Foster

8    From:  Gayle Sennott of Ontario, Canada (Gayle Sennott)     Date:  30 Oct 2000  (Abbreviated)
      Searching re:   Robert Arbuthnot & Elizabeth Nevin  ... Table 6

My gggg-grandparents were Robert Arbuthnot & Elizabeth Nevin who came to Canada in 1834 with their son, Robert, and their daughter Esther Ann (who was married to James Kyle).
I was visiting a web site tonight (http://www.electricscotland.com/webclans/atoc/arbuthno/book11.html#Canada)
and found the following paragraph:
"Robert Arbuthnot and his wife Elizabeth Nevin went to Canada from Co.Antrim in about 1834. They had several sons, who established the Eastern Ontario branch of the family. Their daughter, Ann, married James Kyle."
I was wondering if you knew anything about who Robert Arbuthnot's/Elizabeth Nevin's parents were and if they had any siblings.  Through my research, I think I have been able to establish that Elizabeth came from Portglenone, Antrim, N. Ireland.  Did Robert come from there as well?
RESPONSE: I wrote that in about 1977-8, the source being letters sent in response to the inauguration of the Arbuthnott Family Association. Much work has been done since then and you are absolutely right. Thank you for drawing it to our attention. We are writing to the webmaster of that site and are sure he will amend it; it is not a site under our control, but there are links to some excellent pages. Our own site contains an amended book11 which reflects our current understanding. Christy Bing

5b    From: Hildred Finch (hfinch@keremeos.com) ......... Table 121
        Date:  11 May 1999
        Searching for:   Arbuthnots on line
Karen,
My ggrandmother, Nancy Arbuthnot, married John McBride after the death of her first husband, John Thompson (my ggrandfather). Would this be in your line?
RESPONSE:  Hildred is a Canadian (British Columbia) woman who is trying to trace her ancestor Nancy Arbuthnot, who married John Thompson in Ontario in 1823 after immigrating to Canada, probably both from County Antrim. Hildred has been told that after John's death, Nancy married John McBride (no relation to Karen Wright McBride). I can't find any Nancy in my records from Ireland that would fit. It seems that there is a relationship to people on Table 6 by the name of Helmer (her gg grandfather Benjamin Helmer was a third cousin of Peter Helmer) but I don't think that is an Arbuthnot connection. - Betsy Henry

        From:   Hildred Finch (hfinch@keremeos.com) ......... Table 121        Date:   22 April 1999
I am  interested in the Arbuthnot(t)s who came to Canada from Ireland, probably settling in the Long Sault/Cornwall, Ontario area ca 1800-1840. I have only the name of my gg grandmother, - Nancy Arbuthnot, and would like to know more about her.

RESPONSE:   Nancy Arbuthnot(t)
From: Nancy Arbuthnot Johnson   .... Table 40       Date:  17 July 2000
Your April 22nd 1999 message posted on the Kittybrewster.com website caught my attention for several reasons. I share your g-g-grandmother's name and my own g-g-g-grandmother's name was also Nancy Arbuthnot. She immigrated to Mariposa Township (not so far from Cornwall) in the 1840s from Scotland (Table 40).
I am aware of two Arbuthnots (born in Ireland) who immigrated to Canada in the mid-1830s and resided in the Cornwall area. Their names are Robert and Margaret (perhaps father and daughter). I know nothing more about them however.
You may find the Ontario 1871 census data for heads and strays, which is searchable on-line at http://130.15.161.15/census/index.html, a useful resource in your search.
Good luck and best regards,
Nancy Arbuthnot Johnson

      Topic:  Stringer ... Table R
My name is Rick Stringer. I live in Petaluma, CA. My father is John Stewart Stringer of Dayton, Ohio. His father is Brearton Stewart Stringer. His father (my great grandfather) was Hugh Arbuthnot Stringer. Based on the research I have conducted, Hugh was the son of Ann Arbuthnott of Scotland. Ann apparently ran off with a manservant named Stringer and had three children with him (Hugh was one of them). Later in life Hugh had three wives and ten children. His son Arthur Stringer was a distinguished poet, writer and professor in Calgary, Alberta, Canada.  Please email me with any information you may have.



2    From:   John Irving Shotwell, Jr ........... Table 1            Date:    20 October 1999
      Topic:  William Arbuthnot b. abt. 1781 (Ireland probably)
Seeking information on ancestors and siblings of my g.g.g.grandparents, William Arbuthnot and Mary (Polly) Howell Arbuthnot. William was born about 1781, probably in Ireland, and Mary was born Feb. 19, 1782 in Kingston, Somerset Co., New Jersey. William and Mary were married in Kingston 5 November 1808. William died December 30, 1852 in Caldwell, Essex Co., New Jersey and Mary died April 7, 1854 also in Caldwell. They had four children, Christopher,Mary Howell, Samuel and Eliza. Some and possibly all of the children were christened in the Kingston Presbyterian Church, Somerset Co., New Jersey. Eliza Arbuthnot, my g.g.grandmother was born in 1812, married Simon E. Van Ness July 4, 1828 and died in 1830 after the birth of Austin Van Ness, my great grandfather. Austin Van Ness married Caroline Jacobus in 1857 and my grandmother, Harriet Van Ness, was born in 1866. Harriet married David Pratt in 1898 and my mother, Helen Pratt Shotwell was born in 1900. Any information on Arbuthnot ancestors or descendents will be most appreciated.
