My name is Donna McLenaghan and my great great great grandmother was Ann Osborne and Robert Meighen was my cousin and the Arthur Meighen you are speaking of was Prime Minister of Canada for two terms. Arthur Meighen the Prime Minister was Robert Meighen's first cousin. I would love to talk more about this and learn more about my ancestors.

Hi Donna!

Good to hear from you.  What is your line down from Charles McLenaghan and Ann Osborne (omit living people), and do you know anything more about their ancestors?  As Kiltaglassan says, you’ll be able to send personal messages after another post or two.

As far as I know, we’re still not certain who their parents were.  George Speer (who has also posted here) may correct me on that.

Last month I spent a bit of time trawling through the Registry of Deeds for mentions of the Osbornes and McClenaghans, and I did find quite a few.  Among other things, this turned up a link to Blair McClenaghan of Philadelphia and his brother(s).  I don’t think his hometown has previously been known.

I’ll post those extracts following this message.

Just to throw it out there – I have done DNA testing on FTDNA (data also on GEDmatch).

Regards,
Gilby
