Before 1762, John and David DALEY had settled at Penobscot. Nothing can be found in later records for John DALEY. In 1783, David DALEY removed to St Andrews, New Brunswick where he rec'd land as a Penobscot Loyalist w/ wife Mehitable WEBBER, whom he m. in 1755 at York, ME, and 4 ch: George, Sarah, Mary and Joseph.

Alexander HEPBURN b. c1775 Scotland, d. 18 Nov 1842 Musquash, Saint John Co, NB. He m. Mabel BELDING 1802 Saint John. I need info on their children. #1 Question -- Was Mary HEPBURN b. c1827 who m.

Capt John HOWARD was b. 6 Oct 1742 (according to a family Bible), and d. 1 Jul 1824 Hampton, Kings Co, NB. He. m. 1) Lucy ? about 1765 NY and had 8 ch. The 7 youngest were lost at sea w/ Lucy in the Fall of 1779 while enroute to Halifax. He m. 4) Patience HOWARD d/o Edward HOWARD & Phoebe HART of Dutchess Co, NY (formerly of Dartmouth, MA). I am trying to prove that John HOWARD was not b. 1742, but rather, Oct 1734, the s/o John HOWARD of Simsbury, CT. Both John and a brother Elisha HOWARD were of Dutchess County during that time, and this birthdate more closely matches his age in military records.

James KERR, b. December 1754 in Dumfrieshire, was bapt. 16 Dec 1754 in Ecclefechan (Hoddam Parish ), Dumfrieshire, s/o Thomas KERR. In 1773, he went to Norfolk, Virginia to join a brother. He joined the British forces when the "troubles broke out" and later married Elizabeth BROWN in 1784 in New York. They quickly removed to Ecclefechan where, supposedly, three children were born before March 1786 when they were in London, preparing for a trip to Nova Scotia to settle. James' brother was John KERR, who owned and commanded the schooner "Fannay" at Virginia, sailing with dispatches to Norfolk, later going to New York. In Sept 1783, John KERR returned to Scotland where he married twice and had children. I would love to find more about this family in Scotland, as there were quite a few KERR entries in Ecclefechan's records, but no proven connection.
