Douglas baptism brickwall
« on: Monday 19 March 18 19:14 GMT (UK) »
 My gg was James Douglas (or Douglass) said to have come to Quebec Canada as a boy.. around 1 year old in 1839. ... I can find baptisms for other older brothers .. but not James. His tomb stone in Alvinston Ontario  says born 15 Apr 1838 (although 1911 Ontario census said 1839. His parents were a William Douglas (born 1798) and Helen Patterson (born 1803 Northumberland England) James's obit in the Alvinston Ontario newspaper said born in Inverness ... plus stories handed down in the family has them on Isle of Skye? Brothers Anthony/ Oliver found baptised Farr Sutherland.
William Stephenson - born 1814 at Doncaster West Yorkshire - married Mary Scott at Cottingham East Yorkshire (Hull) in 1838. Williams parents I believe were another Wm Stephenson and an Alice Carter - married Cantley Parish W Yorks (Doncaster) in 1811..... Other east riding names are Nicholls (Bridlington, Yorks and Wigan Lancs.) and the surname Withernwick.
