Hi
Looking for records of the following family.
I found them in the 1841 census in Spittal in Cavers but can't find them in later census records.  Maybe they emigrated.

married 9 May 1830 Wilton, ROX James TENNANT ?b 21 July 1808 Hobkirk (?1st wife Helen LILLICO marr 29 May 1827 Hobkirk) d Children 1. Mary TENNANT b 9 Jun 1831 Cavers, ROX, Sct

2. James TENNANT

3. Isabel TENNANT

I searched for Euphemia being the least common name.
(On New York Passenger Lists) I think I found the family travelling from L'pool to NY, NY on The Montezuma arriving 9 July 1850.

James TENNANT 59 (entire family listed as farmer from Scotland)
Christiana 40
Mary 18
James 16
Isabella 24
Margaret 12
William 9
Christiana 7
Euphemia 5

Seems this was a stopping off point because on 1851 Canadian census, the family are in Blenheim Township, Oxford County, Canada West (Ontario).

Hope this helps.
