Interesting information.

Tracing the lineage of Albert Bird Armstrong can be difficult. After he fell to his death after slipping on a icy railroad trestle (he was a supervisor in the local rail yard, Mary Gold, his second wife, married William Bird Armstrong, Jr., Albert's older brother. William and Mary then had another child Clarence Armstrong.

This would have confused me except for my late Grandma (Mary Gold Armstrong Milligan, the oldest child of Great-Grandpa Albie's second marriage to Great-Grandma Mary) explained it to me with pen and paper. Clarence Armstrong was both my Grandma Milligan's half-brother and her cousin.

Thanks Lugal.
My interest in that line is because I used to be in contact with someone here in England who had an ancestor in the mid-1700s who was also an ancestor of Albert Bird Armstrong's, too. The Cumbrian family was traced back to 1622 in that county by my contact.
There is also evidence of a Y-DNA link between these people.
I greatly appreciate the info you sent.
Cheers,
Bob

My great-great grandfather (William Bird Armstrong, Sr.) did some genealogical work in the Haltwhistle, Northumbria area that his immediate progenitors come from while serving a religious mission (the foreign excursion that led to the passport issuance referred to earlier in this thread). However, the information he brought back and the information my late aunt added on later get rather sketchy the closer we get to the end of the seventeenth century. There appear to be some discrepancies in my aunt's work but she passed away before she clarified them. The Armstrong line I have (starting from my great-great grandfather) is:

William Bird Sr. -> John (1812-1862) -> Robert (1782-1866) -> John (1745-1829) -> Thomas (1719-1805) -> Thomas? (1692?-?)

My grandmother was under the strong impression that she was a proud Scotswoman that descended from royalty that went back to Earl Siward. However, the information I have can't prove either. Do you know where I can find out more information about my line?
