Notes:

?b?James Gilmor?/b? (possibly the son of James Gilmour and Margaret Holms of Glasgow, b. 20 Aug 1667) married to Agnes Snodgrass (1673 in Kilbarchan, Renfrewshire) and ?b?Heugh (Hugh) Stewart?/b? and ?b?Janet Glen?/b? who married 29 October 1693 in Stewarton Parish. They gave birth to ?b?Allan Gilmour I?/b? (1706 Renfrew Parish) and ?b?Jennet Stewart?/b? (1702 Stewarton Parish), a couple who married in Stewarton, Ayrshire 1 April 1738 and my 6?sup?th?/sup? great grandparents.
?b?Jennet or Janet Stewart (1702-)?/b?
Janet Stewart, born in Stewarton Ayrshire, was a daughter of Hugh Stewart and Janet Glen who were married in Stewarton Parish 29 Nov 1693. Her siblings were Hugh (1694), William (1697), John (1704), and Margaret (1707).

?b?Stewarton Parish?/b?
Stewarton parish is named for the recipient of a royal charter granting lands to James, High Steward, in 1283. Janet's lineage has not been defined, but the number of Stewart families in the shire in later years suggest that the Stewart presence was retained in this area for many generations. Although long gone, it is reported that in 1793 the remains of their houses could still be seen near the town. In Janet's time, the area was known as the district of Cunningham, a major landowner and leader in the community.

Janet's home, in Stewarton Parish, was not far from Glasgow (18 miles) and other growing centres of Kilmarnock (6 miles north), Irvine (8 miles north-east) and Paisley (15 miles). Roads were maintained and daily postal services provided. The parish, about four miles in breadth and ten miles in length, was bound by the parishes of Neilston and Mearns in Renfrewshire and Fenwick in Ayrshire. The land is relatively flat sloping gently upwards towards the moor land behind.
The primary focus of the population was agrarian, and soil and animal husbandry resulted in excellent crops and significant numbers of farm animals. The 'Ayrshire' cattle were large milking cows that came to be raised throughout the lowlands and later around the world.

The parish also had an ancient and respected history of bonnet making, described in 1793 as producing "French or Quebec caps" for over 100 years. By 1845 it is reported that the industry provided "almost the whole regimental and naval bonnets and caps ? as well as those worn by the people in the country at large."

The life of Janet Stewart would have been set in the same context as her husbands.
?i?The economy of Scotland had collapsed during the 1690s and after the Bank of Scotland was established, it is estimated that a quarter of all Scottish wealth was lost as a result of the failed Darien project. In 1703, the Scottish parliament past the 'Act of Security' challenging the bond to English monarchs unless Scotland was accorded free trade with England and the colonies. Initially refused, Scotland threaten to stop raising taxes for the English government and to withdraw troops from France. This is effective as the Act receives Royal Assent in 1704. In 1705 the English parliament retaliates and introduces the Alien Act designed to protect English interests in Scotland. The Scots must negotiate a full union with England or have Scottish assets seized and an embargo on Scottish exports flowing to England. In 1707 the Scottish parliament is dissolved, not to reconvene for 292 years.

Into this mix of events, James Stewart, the Pretender, appears and the Jacobite conflict emerges, and his followers launch a series of skirmishes in their attempt to place him, and later his successor, Bonnie Prince Charlie on the throne of Scotland. After several government defeats including the Battle of Prestonpans, the struggle culminates defeat for the Jacobite cause in the Battle of Culloden near Inverness in 1746.

?/i?In 1845 it is interesting to note the following names, among the 83 landowners listed - all of which will reappear in later generations of Janet's descendants:
W. Pollock, Esq. M.D., of Barnahill, non-resident,
Allan Pollock of Blacklaw, non-resident,
John Stewart, Esq. of Gabrochhill, non-resident,
James, John and Robert Lindsay of Auchintiber, and
James Gilmour of Clerkland.

?b?Allan Gilmour and Janet Stewart?/b?
Allan Gilmour and Janet Stewart married in 1738 and appeared to have lived in Stewarton Parish for a time, and possibly for all their lives. No death records have yet been found. Allan was 32 and Janet 36 when they married, and it is not known if other children were born to them. Records have been found for three children Giles Gilmour (1739), Allan Gilmour II (1744-1793), and Margaret Gilmour (1748).

Craigton House, photographed in 1870 by Thomas Annan.

The first coal mines are said to have been opened in Craigton and neighbouring Drumoyne in the 16th century, and ironstone was being mined there by the early 19th century. The Glasgow merchant John Ritchie (d 1755) bought the Craigton estate in 1746. It passed on his death to his son James (1722-1799), a leading tobacco merchant and a founding partner of the Thistle Bank in 1761. James' son Henry (d 1843), also a partner in Thistle Bank, sold the estate in 1830 to Henry Dunlop (1799-1867) of James Dunlop & Sons, cotton spinners and manufacturers. Dunlop was Lord Provost of Glasgow 1837-1840 and Chairman of the Chamber of Commerce in 1841, 1850 and 1862. He sold Craigton to Graham Hutchison, merchant in Glasgow, several years before his death.

Craigton Cemetery was opened by the Burgh of Govan in 1873. The Craigton housing estate was built 1921-1923.

Monument Inscription
?/b?Has no inscription
?b?Family History
?/b?No inscription is apparent on these monuments which are grouped together on the north wall of the Kirkyard. These imposing memorials at first provided a dilemma to the recorders. Had the inscriptions eroded or had they ever been inscribed?
The answer is to be found in A History of our Firm, a book by John Rankin, a descendant of the Rankins of Mainshouse (cf. monument K01).
Referring to the partners of Pollok, Gilmour & Co., John and Arthur Pollok and?b? Allan Gilmour?/b?, the author writes '?there is further proof both of their friendship and of their kindly memory of the country parish (Mearns) from which they sprang. They seem to have arranged for and prepared their burial places, corresponding in size and position on either side of the Mearns church burial-ground. They appear also to have erected their monuments beforehand, differing in form, ample in size, and of the period sufficiently stately. Allan Gilmour senior's heir, however, seemingly forgot to make any record of his birth, death or virtues, although three ample tablets were provided for the purpose; they stand today entirely free of the mason's art.'
?b?Allan Gilmour?/b?, the son of Allan Gilmour and Elizabeth Pollok of South Walton Farm, was born in 1775. With John and Arthur Pollok he founded the firm of Pollok, Gilmour & Co. in 1806 and built a very successful business trading in timber with Scandinavia and Russia and later with Eastern Canada. By the 1830s the firm had built and owned the largest fleet of wooden hulled ships in the world (about 120). Many of the ships had names with local association such as Mearns, Broom, Craigton, Fingalton and Fa'side.
?b?Allan Gilmour?/b? owned Fingalton, Kirkhouse and several farms in addition to the estate of Eaglesham which he purchased with his brother James at a cost of ?200,000 from the Eglinton family. He retired from business in 1838 and died in 1849 at Hazelden House.
Referred to above, monument Z02 commemorating John and Arthur Pollok is situated on the opposite side of the Kirkyard within sight of this memorial.

Notes:

?b?James Gilmour?/b? (14 October 1782 - 29 January 1858) was a prominent Scottish-born entrepreneur, farmer, school trustee, justice of the peace, militia officer, and co-founder of both Douglastown, New Brunswick, and Gilmour, Rankin & Co.

Born in 1782, James Gilmour was the brother of Allan Gilmour, Sr, and the son of Allan Gilmour and Elizabeth Pollok. He was sent in 1812 (together with Alexander Rankin) to establish a base on the Miramichi River (New Brunswick, Canada) for the family's Glasgow-based firm, Pollok, Gilmour and Company. Together, James Gilmour and Alexander Rankin, founded the small community of Gretna Green (later Douglastown, New Brunswick), and established a new branch for the firm, Gilmour, Rankin & Co.

Gilmour and Rankin first developed a sawmill, offices and a house at Douglastown, New Brunswick, and later established a shipbuilding yard and a second sawmill. They were one of the largest and most influential employers in the region, highly successful as timber merchants and ship builders.

James Gilmour returned to Scotland in 1840, and died at Eaglesham, Renfrewshire in 1858.[1]

A?b?lexander Rankin?/b? (December 31, 1788 ? April 3, 1852) was a Scottish-born merchant and political figure in New Brunswick. He represented Northumberland County in the Legislative Assembly of New Brunswick from 1827 to 1852.


Rankin House - former home of Miramichi lumber baron Alexander Rankin at Douglastown, Miramichi, New Brunswick (IR Walker 1983)
He was born and educated in Mearns parish, the brother of Robert Rankin, and son of James Rankin and Helen Ferguson. His uncles, John Pollok and Arthur Pollok, were cofounders of Pollok, Gilmour and Company.

At the age of 18, he was hired as a clerk by Pollok, Gilmour and Company, a Glasgow firm that dealt in timber, and was sent with James Gilmour to New Brunswick to establish a branch of the firm (Gilmour, Rankin and Company) on the Miramichi River. They established a small community called Gretna Green (later Douglastown) as well as stores, wharves and a sawmill. Besides exporting timber, they also sold goods supplied from Scotland. In 1825, the operation suffered extensive damage in the Miramichi Fire. However, they were able to rebuild quickly with the help of the parent company. Rankin also became involved in timber operations at Bathurst (Ferguson, Rankin and Company), Dalhousie and Campbellton (Arthur Ritchie and Company).

In politics as well as in his timber operations, Rankin frequently found himself competing with Joseph Cunard. In elections in 1837 and 1843, Rankin supported John Ambrose Street against candidates supported by Cunard. Gilmour retired from the business in 1842, selling his interest to Rankin. Rankin was named to the province's Executive Council in 1847. With Cunard, he was a commissioner for lights in the Gulf of Saint Lawrence and served on the board of health for the region. For many years, he also served as justice of the peace.

Rankin died unexpectedly in Liverpool during a visit to England at the age of 63.

James Gilmour (14 October 1782 - 29 January 1858) was a prominent Scottish-born entrepreneur, farmer, school trustee, justice of the peace, militia officer, and co-founder of both Douglastown, New Brunswick, and Gilmour, Rankin & Co.

Born in 1782, James Gilmour was the brother of Allan Gilmour, Sr, and the son of Allan Gilmour and Elizabeth Pollok. He was sent in 1812 (together with Alexander Rankin) to establish a base on the Miramichi River (New Brunswick, Canada) for the family's Glasgow-based firm, Pollok, Gilmour and Company. Together, James Gilmour and Alexander Rankin, founded the small community of Gretna Green (later Douglastown, New Brunswick), and established a new branch for the firm, Gilmour, Rankin & Co.

Gilmour and Rankin first developed a sawmill, offices and a house at Douglastown, New Brunswick, and later established a shipbuilding yard and a second sawmill. They were one of the largest and most influential employers in the region, highly successful as timber merchants and ship builders.

James Gilmour returned to Scotland in 1840, and died at Eaglesham, Renfrewshire in 1858.[1]

Notes:

Little is known about Robert Miller other than he was born to William Miller and Elizabeth Gilmour in 1784.

Unless he accompanied his parents, as part of the group of seven who arrived in 1821, Robert did not independently qualify for assistance through one of the emigration societies. He would have been of an age to qualify for his own grant unless the plan was for him to assist William and Elizabeth who were in or approaching their sixties. If he was unmarried, this may have been the plan.

He does not appear in the 1820, 1822, 1834 or 1842 reports on the settlers in the Bathurst District. In the ?i?MS 482 Vol 1 Inspection Report Bathurst District Clergy Reserves 1828, ?/i? the report for Robert Miller, Dalhousie C1 L17, 200 acres, describes the soil as bad. Timbers - maple, hemlock, elm and basswood on the ridge, cedar and tamarack in swamp. Will purchase at 21? per acre. Nearest mill is eight miles. Is this 'Robert'? The location close to his parents suggests it might be.

He reappears, to obtain the crown patent on his parents property in Lanark Township 6 Mar 1851 and it is believed to be Robert, at the home of his brother Andrew Miller in Bathurst at the time of the 1852 census, identified as a widower, but he does not appear in the 1861 census. No burial site has been located.

The possibility of Robert being a military settler needs to be explored more fully. There is a possibility that he served in Ireland and or on the Continent. He may have followed the family to Canada after receiving a pension.


The possibility of Robert remaining in Scotland and possibly marrying there has been looked at, and a possible marriage to Agnes Kerr and resulting family identified, but more work will be required to prove or disprove this theory.

The possibility that Robert emigrated to another country is another possibility that has not yet been explored. South Africa, New Zealand and Australia would be good possibilities in addition to the United States.

(Research):?b??i?
?/b?Spouses? Maybe none!!!?/i?
Another possibility is Jean Young 28 Nov 1807
Agnes Kerr is floated as a possibility based on a ScotlandsPeople search of marriages listed in Old Parish Registers.?b??i?

?/b??i?From Charles McFadden letter?b??/i?
?/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.

?b?William Miller?/b? arrived on Brig Prompt, 1820 located in Dalhousie, Whitelee. Son of William 1762.?u??b?
?/u??/b?
?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!
*********
William appears as head of household in Racine Wisconsin in 1855 Census. This census does not show names of household.
?u??b?
?/b??i?JR Ernest Miller 18 May 1993?/u??/i?
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.

Notes:

(Research):?u??b?John Miller or John Millers?
?/u??/b?
?b?Conclusion:
?/b?John Miller with a wife and six children settled on Lanark Township C2 L22 and not Dalhousie C2 L22. This is unlikely 'my' John Miller as he was born in 1789 and unlikely to have married before 1809, and although possible, unlikely to have travelled with six children.
?b?
Lanark Township C2 L22?/b?
In 1820 John Miller receives this grant of 100 acres 24?sup?th?/sup? July 1821.
Charles Rankin listed him as indebted to the British government in October 1829.
In 1834, John Miller is identified as the settler associated with this lot which is described as stony and swampy. It is noted that he has two sons in western Ontario.
In 1838 John Miller states that he was located many years ago on this lot and it was barren and request permission to relinquish and select 100 acres of land elsewhere.
John Miller does not appear on this land in 1842, nor could he be found on land in the townships in the study area (Lanark, Dalhousie, Bathurst, Burgess).
John Miller did not receive the patent to this land.

?b?Dalhousie Township C2 L22?/b?
In the same document as noted for Dalhousie C2 L21*, John Miller is located on C2 L22, 100 acres on 24 July 1821. A second John Miller is noted as settling on C3 L21E on 25 July 1821.
In some documents, the settlement of Dalhousie C2 L22 has been associated with John Miller, North Albion Society, arrived on the ship Commerce in 1821. He was accompanied by a wife and six children, 2 males over twelve years, one female over twelve years, one male under twelve years, two females under twelve years. However, it is more likely those who associated John Miller with wife and six children locate on Lanark Concession 2 Lot 22 are correct. William Graham, head of this group did not sail, and John Miller led this group which included three families. Two other members of group, Peter Baxter, located on Lanark C3 Lot 13, and John Parker located on Lanark C4 L4.
C. Bennett also makes note that 'J. Miller has two sons in Western Ontario' which also appears in the notes about Lanark C2 L22 above which suggests confusion as to the township associated with this land allocation.
John Miller did not receive the patent for this property.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
?b?
Dalhousie Township C3 L21 E?/b?

John Miller arrived in 1821, a member of the Cambuslang Society, on the George Canning with three children, 2 sons under twelve, 1 daughter under twelve. (other Miller family members on this ship but in the Glasgow Canadian Society). The ship sailed on 14 Apr 1821 and arrived at Quebec on 2 Jun 1821. The settlers proceeded to Montreal aboard the Lady Sherbrooke.
John Miller settled on lot C3L21E, 100 acres, on 25 July 1821, the same day as his father and brothers. He can be matched to settler #495 in the Location Report of Settlers. These records indicate it was Concession 3 Lot 21 E not concession 2.
Baptismal and Marriage Records of Presbyterian Churches in Dalhousie and Lanark Townships, Lanark County, Ontario, J.R. Ernest Miller and Robert E. Sargeant. 1989.
John Miller's son, John Miller was baptised on 24 May 1833. His wife is named as Jannet Lyle.

In 1834 Col. Marshall notes that the lot is vacant and 'Miller gone thirteen years, no information'. The lot is hilly and rocky.

John Miller did not receive the patent for this property.
?b?Dalhousie C2 L21?/b?
No record of this lot being assigned in 1821*. He may have moved to this lot after the settlement year but no records to support this was found.
Col Marshall associates John Miller with this land in 1834. He describes this lot as half the lot is middling, the remainder is indifferent, timber maple, elm, beech, hemlock, basswood on ridge, cedar & tamarack in swamp. Will Purchase ?2 per acre. Two miles to mill. Unimproved value ?0. 3.
John Miller did not obtain the patent to this property.

1861 Census, Sarnia Township, (Lambton Cty) in Huron County, Microfilm #C1041

Plympton
Plympton is the most northern of the center tier of Lambton County townships and is bounded on the north by a portion of Bosanquet and on the north west by Lake Huron.

?i?From a Lambton web site??/i?
It is the second largest township in the county, having 76080 acres. The settlement of Plympton dates back from 1833 in which year a large number of immigrants located along the Egremont Road in the 5th and 6th ,Concessions. They came out from Europe under the patronage of Lord Egremont. There was also a settlement at Camlachie the same year. The land there was settled in 1833 by old country men and?b? in 1835 and 36 a considerable number of Scotch settlers came to the southern part of the township from Lanark county. ?/b?When the settlement was effected along the lake there was no way of communicating with Sarnia, then a straggling hamlet containing only one store, except by boats on the lake.

?i?A History of Lambton Cty, Jean Turnbull Elford, Sarnia, 1967. (my summary)?/i?
In 1835, 27 year old Malcolm Cameron persuded Scottish settlers to follow him from Lanark and Perth, (Lanark Cty) when he bought the property that was to become downtown Sarnia. He provided land for their Presbyterian Church, employed them in his grist mill, took potash in exchange for goods at his store corner of Lochiel and Front St. The settlers cut square oak timbers he sold to Glasgow shipyards, manufactured staves he shipped to Jamaica for rum barrels, built and sailed vessels on the lakes. Through use of political influence he was responsible for the building of a road from London to Sarnia direct.

These men receiving military land grants were either not associated in the records with a specific regiment or the transcriber was unable to read the handwriting. Many of these no doubt served in the War of 1812, but others would have served in other theatres.

?u?1816 - 5th (Princess Charlotte of Wales's) Dragoon Guards?/u?
The 5th (Princess Charlotte of Wales's) Dragoon Guards was a British army cavalry regiment, officially formed in January 1686 as Shrewsbury's Regiment of Horse. Following a number of name changes, it became the 5th (Princess Charlotte of Wales's) Regiment of Dragoon Guards in 1804.

During the War of the Spanish Succession, the unit was commanded by William Cadogan, close aide to the Duke of Marlborough. It was engaged in many of Marlborough's battles and sieges, including Blenheim, Ramillies and Malplaquet; after the Peace of Utrecht in 1713, it resumed garrison duties in Ireland, where it spent most of the next 80 years.[7]

Le Marchant's charge at Salamanca, July 1812; 5th dragoons right foreground
Renamed Second Irish Horse in 1746, it then became 5th Regiment of Dragoon Guards in 1788.[2] On the outbreak of the French Revolutionary Warsin 1793, it was posted to Flanders where it fought at the April 1794 Battle of Beaumont.[6] The unit returned to Ireland and helped suppress the 1798 Irish Rebellion, including the battles of Arklow, Vinegar Hill and Ballinamuck.[5] In 1804, it was retitled 5th (Princess Charlotte of Wales's) Regiment of Dragoon Guards after Princess Charlotte, later simplified to 5th (Princess Charlotte of Wales's) Dragoon Guards.[2]

Posted to Spain in 1810, it was part of Le Marchant's brigade during the Peninsular campaign. The Battle of Salamanca in July 1812 is considered one of Wellington's greatest victories and Le Marchant's attack as the 'single most destructive charge made by a brigade of cavalry in the whole Napoleonic period.

JR Ernest Miller Notes
?/b?Janet (Jessie) Miller and Robert Boyle
Janet Miller would have been 19 years of age when her parents, William Miller and Elizabeth Gilmour, left Dumbarton and sailed from Greenock for their new home in Lanark County.

Robert and Janet lived on Lanark Con 2 L 6. The 1851 census has the following information.
Boyle, Robert; born in Scotland, age 57.
Jannett; his wife, age 48
Catherine; age 28
Mary; age 26
William; age 24
John; age 18
Robert; age 17
David; age 15
Mungo; age 10
John Mason Miller; age 3

Baptismal records of St. Andrew's, Lanark record the following:
William; born 11 feb 1831, son of Robert Boyle and Janet Miller
John Henry; born 7 feb 1834, son of Robert Boyle and Janet Miller

The 1861 census lists their religion as Congregational so perhaps more information is to be found in that church's records if available. Ages given in 1861 are Robert; age 66, Janet, age 59.

Notes:

Ted Miller: Birth info from OPR Births 496/00 0030 0242 Dumbarton Register - Birth Date 24 August 1806.

Based on correspondence from Muriel Peppler, I believe that?b? John Miller 1806 came to Canada in 1826?/b? (unexplained date in a Robert Miller bible in the possession of Carolee, daughter of Clinton Park, granddaughter of Elizabeth Miller Park 2017).

Family lore suggests that he worked on a ships crew and left the ship in Quebec and made his way to Lanark County. He would have been 20 years of age at the time and would have qualified for a free grant of land when he reached age 21 but the land granting program was cancelled in 1827. He therefore did not receive a land grant.

It is not know at this time where he worked and lived until his ?b?marriage to Margaret Blair in Lanark, Rev. John Gemmill, in 1831?/b? (Marriage certificate believed to have been held by Melville Millar in the 1990s). It is suspected that he may have worked for James Blair for a time and thus met his daughter Margaret. James Blair settled in Dalhousie in 1820. He died before 1834 and his son George acquired the property Dalhousie Concession 1 Lot 8 and applied for the crown patent for this lot.
?i?Land Record Dalhousie C1 L8?b??/i? ?/b?(Almonte Registry Office - researched by Mel Miller)
1837 Crown to George Blair
1852 George Blair to Robert Bateson
1865 Robert Bateson to George Blair
1872 George Blair to Andrew Paul
1876 Andrew Paul to Stewart Miller
1881 Stewart Miller to George Blair
1885 George Blair to Jane Blair
1895 Stewart Miller and wife to James Dunham
Stewart Miller, son of John and Margaret, retured to this farm in the 1870's with his first wife, Jane Elliott, age 40 who died in 1883 and a son John, age 12 who died in 1881. Jane and her son are buried in the same plot as George Blair in the Watson Corners cemetery.

It is believed that two children were born before moving to Bathurst. One unsubstatiated suggestion is that William was born in Huntley Township, Carleton County. If this can be established it might suggest that John was engaged in the timber industry for a period. This was one of the common methods for gaining currency during this period.

?b?St Andrew's Presbyterian Church, Perth, ON?/b?
John (21 Jan 1836 - 13 Feb 1846) and Margaret (1 Feb 1835, communicant - 13- Jun 1846) were members of St. Andrews Presbyterian Church, Perth. It lists their location as Bathurst C2 L8 at time of becoming members (1836). Margaret's location is given as Perth at time of departure from congregation.

?b?Their children?/b?
?i?(?sup?*?/sup?PAO Toronto. MS 201 Reel#1 Church Records: Drummond, Bathurst, St. Andrew's Presbyterian Church)?/i?
William - birth location to be confirmed;
Catherine - birth location and baptism to be confirmed;
James Miller born 15 Dec, 1835, chr. 8 May 1836, St Andrews Presbyterian Church, location Bathurst C2 L3?sup?*?/sup?
George Miller born 18 Sep 1837, chr. 24 Sep 1837, St Andrews Presbyterian Church, location Bathurst C2 L3?sup?*?/sup?
David - born circa 1840, Bathurst Twp, Lanark County
Stewart - born c 1841, Bathurst Twp, Lanark County
Robert - born 1834-4, Rawdon Twp, Hastings County
John - born circa 1850, Rawdon Twp, Hastings County

Research on the two Bathurst Township locations gives this information:
Location from Baptismal records:
C2 L3E - 1824 Hugh Spratt
C2 L3E - 1829 Patrick Kane
C2 L3W - 1824 Michael Cullen
C2 L3W - 1825 Samuel McLellan
C2 L3W - 1841 Isaac Corry
It is probable that they rented or leased part of this lot for a period of time.

Location from John Miller, St. Andrew's Role and Lanark Land Records, Book I, sale of property to Andrew Miller and Early Settlers in Bathurst Township; JRE Miller :
C2 L8E - 1826 John McKenzie
C2 L8E - 1832 Henry Graham
?b?C2 L8W - 1833 Archibald Fraser
C2 L8W - 1833 John Miller
C2 L8W - 1833 Andrew Miller
?/b?It appears that John Miller owned this lot jointly with Archibald Fraser 1833-1838. The sale to Andrew was recorded on 12 Dec 1838.

After the move to Hastings County, Land records indicate that John and Margaret resided at Rawdon C9 L21 but later acquired additional properties.
?b?Rawdon Township
?/b?C9 L21 Deed March 1847 - 200 acres
C8 L21 Deed December 1853 - 50 acres

John Stewart was former military, a teacher in Perth (Jean McGill: A Pioneer Story...)
They moved to Rawdon Township, Hastings Cty with John and Margaret.

Stewart Miller m. Annie Elliott, daughter of Kennedy & Ann Elliott, Bathurst, who also moved to Rawdon.
Robert Miller m. Agnes Duncan, daughter of Peter Duncan & Elizabeth Beaumont, Bathurst, who moved to either Rawdon or Seymour E Twp, Northumberland.
?b?
?/b?John Miller died late 1870 and before 12 Jan 1871

(Research):One of the census (1861) shows an Isabella Miller that no one can identify. Isabella is said to have married William Milne and is buried in Burnbrae cemetery, adjoining St Andrew's Church. The inscription on their tombstone is hard to read (1981:M. Peppler) but seems to be: Isabella Miller, died 22 Feb 1883, aged 60?, 63?, 69?. A granddaughter has her birth as 27 May 1820. This would make it unlikely that she was John and Margaret's daughter, maybe a sister?
Family, Jane Milne married William Stewart Jr.

Mary McLaughlin Miller, daughter of John and Margaret Miller, Osgoode, C10 L36, born 10 Jul 1843, baptised 16 Mar 1844.

Excerpt from a letter - decendent of Stewart & Janet Miller
The Millers and Blairs first settled in Dalhousie. Grandfather moved to Rawdon, near Campbellford; both he and grandmother Miller are buried there. Father, Mother, Uncle Robert and Aunt Agnes are buried in Rainy River.

From Ted Miller, Nov 2019
The 1871 Census of Canada lists John Miller, age 64, as dying in April within the 12 months "preceeding the 1871 Census".

2. The Ontario Land Registry Access Land Registry Office for Hastings County (LRO21) advises -
Page 267 of 301 of this document recorded that William, James, David, Stewart, George, John and wives & Margaret Miller ? Widow" Granted 100 acres of the property of Concession 9, Lot 21, to "Robert Miller", by Grant G818 on 12 January, 1871.

Page 267 of 301 of this document recorded that William, James, David, Stewart, Robert, John and wives & Margaret Miller ? Widow" Granted 50 acres of the property of Concession 9, Lot 21, to "George Miller", by Grant G814 on 12 January, 1871.

If the property of John Miller was passed to his descendants in January, 1871, that must mean that John Miller died during the April before 1871, i.e., April 1870.

Occupation:
He was a founding director of the City Bank (of Montreal), which had been established in 1831 to break the monopoly of the Bank of Montreal and increase the availability of credit. Richie's ability to negotiate financial arrangements on behalf of the company was no doubt aided by his involvement

Land & Property:
Ritchie returned to Scotland with his wife and children in 1841 and purchased the estate of Middleton, near Gorebridge. As in Lower Canada, he remained essentially a private person, playing little or no part in public life. He devoted his energies to agriculture and arboriculture, purchasing additional land at Lambhill (near Strathaven) and leasing from Allan Gilmour Sr the farm of West Walton in Eaglesham. When he died in 1856 he left a movable estate of ?13,919, with the majority of his heritable property in entail to his eldest son, William. His comparatively short business career relied for its success, and ultimately its failure, on the influence and genius of Allan Gilmour Sr. Ritchie's major contribution to Pollok, Gilmour in British North America was the personal influence and skill he exerted in establishing the credit facilities which enabled the various companies to flourish. This contribution connected him with important developments in finance and credit introduced with the growth of commercial banking in British North America.
