Notes:

?i?Alexander Callander & Agnes Sterling Posted 29 Jun 2012 by Liz Richardsen
?/i?
"We must not close this record without a short history of Alexander and his noble little wife, Agnes Stirling. They were my grandparents, I being the son of their youngest child, Alexander.

They were both born in Falkirk, and Grandfather served his apprenticeship as a blacksmith in the old shop known as Callander Smiddy. When the writer first visited Falkirk, the old Smiddy was still standing. At that time it was used as a bicycle repair shop, but the old forges were till there; no doubt Grandfather spent the days of his young manhood working at one of these. Shortly after my visit, the old Smiddy was torn down and a two story building erected in its place. The lower stroy is now occupied by the agency of Singer Sewing Machine and the upper story as a dwelling.

Across High Street is a property consisting of five two storoy stone buildings, known as the Callander property. The present owner is William Brown, whose mother was a Callander. She was of a very kind disposition and was known in Falkirk as "Auntie Brown".

High Street here diverges to the left and another street branches off to the right, forming a point or triangle. On this triangle is erected a stone building known as "Callander Tavern". No person seems to know when it received that name.

Grandfather and Grandmother caught the Canadian fever and early in 1820 left Falkirk for Canada. When they left Falkirk, they had with them six children. James, Elizabeth, John, Isabella, William and Agnes. While they were waiting for their ship at Greenock, their eldest child, James, died and was buried there. While on board ship, a baby girl, Jeannie, was born, but only lived a short time and was buried at sea. Two other sons were born to them in Canada, James and Alexander.

The trip across the Atlantic was made in an old man-of-war, that had been sunk during the Napoleonic wars. It had been raised and was now being used to transport emigrants to the Colonies. Adverse winds and very stormy weather delayed the old sailing vessel, but they landed in Quebec some time in June. With them were several other Scottish families, among whom were the Wallaces, the Parks and the Millars.

When they arrived in Quebec, they were all practically penniless. It has been said that Grandfather landed in Quebec with a wife, five children and a six-pence.

The manufactured goods used in Canada at this time were made in Britain, brought to Quebec in ships and from there were carried by French Voyageurs to Mont Real and Upper Canada in flat bottomed scows called Batteaux. These were loaded with goods and where the water was smooth, were propelled by sails, but when the rapids of the St Lawrence were reached, they had to be towed. These Scottish emigrants obtained passage for themselves and families by assisting in this work. This was a long and tedious journey and when they reached Prescott, the Boyageurs had no further use for the emigrants, there being very little or no current between there and Toronto, so they were put ashore.

They immediately began their march inland and in December reached a place in Dalhousie Township, in the County of Lanark. This place is about two miles north of what is now known as Watson's Corners. They picked the high groung for their homes as the low was wet and swampy. The men set to work cutting down trees and built a shanty, but how they existed until they reaped their scanty harvest in 1821, we can not conceive.

After years of hard labour clearing the land, these Scottish families came to the conclusion that the land was not worth the clearing and decided to leave Dalhousie. The Millars moved south into Bathurst Township, the Parks to Western Ontario, while the Callanders and Wallaces moved east to North Gower township, county of Carleton. The Wallaces settled north of what is now known as North Gower Village, while the Callanders made their home south of it. They bought their land from the Canada Company, and paid for it by selling Potash made from the ashes of the log-piles made in clearing the land.

It may be interesting to note in passing that, while practically every acre of land sesttled by the Wallaces is still in possession of someone by that name, not an acre of that settled by the Callanders is owned by any of their descendants, nor is there a Callander in North Gower Township and only one in Carleton county, Alexander, son of James Callander, who lives in Ottawa.

Grandfather died in 1850, aged seventy-five, but Grandmother lived until 1866, being eighty-four when she died. They were a noble pair, both morally and spiritually good, wand while they endured hardships such as very few are called upon to go through, their lot was almost trying, but they always made the best of it and were cheerful, and when we, their descendants, think of them, we have reason to be thankful and proud that we have the blodd of such heroic forbearers running through our veins.

By a sstudy of the appended genealogical tree it will be seen that we are not only scattered over the whold of North America, from Atlantic to Pacific in both Canada and the United States, but in other countries.

The senior member of the connection today is Alexander Thomson, son of Agnes Callander and Gilbert Thomson. Alex was born in 1848 and is therefore eighty-eight years of age. Jean Callander, daughter of Alexander Callander and Agnes Brown is the next oldest, born in 1849, and is therefore eighty-seven years old. For the third place there are three contestants, Alexander Stirling, son of James Callander and Margaret Morgan; David, son of William Callander and Harriedt Barrows; and William, son of William Callander and Margaret Wallace. These were each born in 1854, making them eighty-two years of age."

Written by: Hugh B. Callander 1859 (m. Ettie Wigle 1869), sixth child of nine of Alexander Callander (1825-1873-(youngest son (9th of 9 children)of Alexander Callander 1775-1850 and Agnes Stirling 1782-1856)) and Agnes Brown (1828-1914).

(Research):Lanark Society Settler, (Anderston & Rutherglen Emigration Society) a blacksmith, arrived on the Brig Prompt in 1820. Settled on Dalhousie C2 L17.

?i?from Andrew Wallace & Ellen Fulton, posted 22 May 2014 by Liz Richardsen (see also Andrew Wallace # 19026)?/i?
Alexander Callander, his wife Agnes Sterling, and their family were emigrants on the same vessel and they too settled in Dalhousie Township on land just south of that taken by Andrew Wallace.

The two families had, in fact, travelled together as they had pooled their money to get a cart and oxen, as they hadn't planned on starting out in Quebec.

For seventeen or eighteen years, these families remained in this district overcoming obstacles common to Canadian pioneering. But when the forest was cleared away, the soil was found to be rocky and not the best for farming. Accordingly, in 1837 or 1838 most of the Wallace family left Dalhousie for North Gower Township in Carleton County. here they settled on Lots 18 and 19, in third concession of North Gower. Part of this was Clergy Reserve land, for which they had to wait some years before obtaining their title deeds.

?/u?William Miller?/b? (1762) arrived Brig George Canning 1821, Dumbartonshire and located on W L15 Con 1 Lanark Township after first drawing Lot 24 Con 2. He was accompanied by his wife and William Miller (1786)'s siblings. He later moved to Bathurst.

?u??i?William Miller & Family in Wisconsin from Charles McFadden?/u??/i?
William V. Moore , Wisconsin Probate. A kerfuffle over his estate. ?b?Mary Miller?/b?, his wife, refused administration on his estate. ?b?Jane Ebbot?/b? petitioned for re-payment of loans totaling over $1000 - in 1885 - dating back to 1855. The notes were in her name then: ?b?Jane M. Wilson?/b?. She says that she is the sister of William's wife, Mary Miller. A great grandson petitioned in 1948 because his grandfather had been named in the will "Miller W. Moore" and his name was really "William M. Moore" There is diagram of the homestead there too.

I do not have the diagram. I think Robert Urquhart's 4 great grand daughter may as a guess.

Then, Mary Miller Moore died in 1898 and her parents were named as ?b?William Miller and Margaret Burns?/b?.

So, now we know that William Miller 1786 went to the United States in 1836, was in Racine in 1844, that he had, at least, children?b? Margaret Mary, Jane, and John ?/b?with him. Jane married one husband Joseph Wilson along the way, and Mary married William V. Moore either Dec. 25 1844 or Jan. 31st 1845 - both records exist. Unfortunately, nothing further about the whereabouts of William and Margaret after the 1850 census of Wisconsin. William Miller 1786 & Mary Margaret Burns your 4 great grandparents either died before 1860 or moved on.

Notice Diane that there is a darn gone David Miller listed as well!

Wm. Miller & Mary or Margaret Burns were married at Kilmarnock Scotland on 13 June 1807.
The baptismal records of their children in Scotland use one of those two christian names but never the two at one time. We have not checked her birth records to verify which is correct or whether it should be Mary Margaret Burns. It is rumoured that she is a sister of Robbie Burns the poet but never verified.
In 1821, William Miller took his family to Greenock where they embarked for Canada settling in Lanark twp on Con 1 Lot 15 opposite his brother Andrew who had drawn a similar lot in Dalhousie twp.
Burial records have never been located but the 1834 report on the condition of the 1820-21 Scottish settlers to Lanark and Dalhousie twps states that widow Miller is alone on L15 C1 Lanark and that the rest of the family has moved to Bathurst twp. In his diaries Robert Mason recorded that Mrs. William Miller died 13 Dec 1839. As three of his daughters were married to Miller husbands we have assumed that this was Mary Margaret Burns.
To make a positive identification more difficult there were no less than four William Millers in Dalhousie and Lanark twps in 1834. A William Miller left L14 C2 Dalhousie in 1839 and moved to Hammond, St. Lawrence Co., New York State. Efforts to identify this man have failed to date.
Janet, Margaret Ann & Mary, daughters of William and Mary Margaret Miller have not been identified in our research although earlier family history had indicated possible marriages to a Brownlee and a Robinson.

?u??i?Carol Bennett: The Lanark Society Settlers, 1991.?/u??/i?
pg. 105 reflects the confusion of William Millers at the time. She has Andrew Miller as a son rather than a brother. Again on pg 106 there is confusion of generations.
One of the William Millers was a member of the ?b?Glasgow Canadian Society. ?/b?Signatures of James, Andrew and William are posted on page 103. Walter Black was head of this emigration society. This group arrived in 1821 on the ship George Canning.?b?

?b?notes from William [6] for reference?/b?
As part of the ?i?Glasgow Sr. Wrights was ?/i?Andrew Blair (4 people). As part of the ?i?Lanarkshire Society?/i? James Gilmour (6 persons), William Miller (1 person) and William Gilmour (1 person) sailed on Earl of Buckinghamshire, Johnston Master, departing Greenock on 29 Apr 1821 to sail to Quebec.
Among the 1821 arrivals is Robert Mason on Lanark C2 Lot 9W, Alexander Brownlee on Dalhousie C12 L11W, and John Miller on Lanark C2 L22W.?b?
?/b?on the same ship, Cannnington as part of the ?i?Cambuslang Society?/i?, there was a John Miller (4 people) and a William Gourley (5 people).

I find that one of the William Millers from Scotland, was a bachelor, and had arrived on the Commerce on June 1820 and was not located until 22 March 1821 on Lanark C7 L12W. Furthermore I discover that he was not sent out by Government but was received by authority of Commander, 22 January, 1821. A Hugh Miller, 1821 settled in Ramsay Township C10 L18 on 25 Jul 1821. He was of interest, not as a Miller but as an ancestor of Beatrice Miller Duncan who married into my husband's Duncan family.

Another document was In this report we find that William Miller, 1820,?b? ?/b?purchased?b? ?/b?Lanark C2 Lot 13W from Wm. Brown who now owns a tavern in Perth and that William Miller is located on Dalhousie C2 Lot 14E. It seems there is a 'Brown' connection yet to be discovered in the family. A grandson of William and Elizabeth has ?i?Brown?/i? as a second name on a marriage record. It is also noted that John Blair sold Dalhousie C5 L6W to William Miller. At this point I go back to the record of births and baptism I have already gathered. I know that William Miller and Elizabeth Gilmour, are the parents of Robert, b. 3 Nov 1784, William, b. 19 Sep 1786, John, born 7 Jun 1789, and Jean b. 3 Aug 1791, all in Dumbarton, Dumbartonshire, Scotland.
