I have a lady on a local group looking for this family as she has a bereavement card for Robert Hogg who was KIA in Palestine in 1917. He was the first husband of Margaret Patterson and the father of Robert and Margaret. After his death Margaret married James P Stevenson and they emigrated from Scotland to the US via Canada in 1922. I have traced Robert's war medals to a collector in Oregon. James was registered as living in Malheur Oregon when he signed up for the US Draft in WW1. He returned to Scotland to marry the now widowed Margaret and brought her back to the US. When the children first came over they stayed with relatives in Canada with the name Patterson. They moved to the US and eventually took on their stepfather's name of Stevenson. Not sure if they stayed in the US or returned to Canada. Hoping someone recognises the names.
