request look-up in "A Dictionary of Scottish Emigrants to Canada"
« on: Sunday 20 January 19 23:28 GMT (UK) »

Request look-up of the following names in "A Dictionary of Scottish Emigrants to Canada before Confederation". Sorry that I don't know which volume the names would be found - perhaps Vol 3?

Hugh Ronald, emigrated from Kilmarnock in 1832
Jane/Janet McKie/MacKie, emigrated from Ayrshire in 1832
William Ronald, emigrated from Kilmarnock in 1841 or 1842
wife Janet Bicket, emigrated from Kilmarnock in 1841 or 1842
All settled in Brant county, Canada West

Thank you to anyone able to help. I have not been able to locate a copy of these volumes to do my own research.

Does the hardcover edition of this book include all the volumes?

That is very expensive!!   :o  Save your money - I expect someone will be along soon with an answer for you.

Or, you could ask for a lookup from the Toronto Public Library.  They might check for you?

Thank you to anyone able to help. I have not been able to locate a copy of these volumes to do my own research.

I couldn't find any of the of the people you mentioned.  There is a William Ronald:
9479 RONALD, William. From AYR. Rel to John R, qv.
To Hamilton, ONT, <1854, when he m Ann Wingfield.
OGF 29, 125.

And a Janet McKie:
6452 McKIE, Janet, 5 Jan 1823-9 Aug 1896. From Dufftown,
BAN. To PEI, prob <1855; stld Kings Co. m William
Hunter, qv. SPE T21.

But they don't match what you said above.

Is there a reference you have to whether they are in the Dictionary of Scottish Emigrants to Canada?

You can also find the CD-Rom or books here: https://ogs.on.ca/?s=dictionary+scottish
Bennett, Bowling, Braedine/Brodie, Bulmer, Burns, Cochrane, Devlin, Ellis, Garth, Henderson, Holm/Holmes, Kershaw, Masson, McClernon/McLaren/MacLaren, McComb, McKee, Pitt, Rawood, Riddel, Robinson, Whitaker, Wood

The name Roland I believe should be Ronald. The surname was written as Roland.

Did notice a marriage of a James Roland (age 71 years - Listowel Ontario - born Ayrshire Scotland - retored farmer - father William Roland and mother Janet Bicket ) to Thomison Smith (aged 31 years - Grey Twsp - nurse - father John Smith and mother Ruth Dobson) - marriage Wellington 1899.
