    Role: Witness
    "Abercrombie Street - Trans Atlantic Bridgeton - sailed with 7 children; wife arrived later.
    James Baird came from Glasgow but was originally from Perthshire Scotland. He appears to have sailed with seven children but without his wife, Janet King. She appears to be buried with him at Hopetown so possibly she remained behind and joinde him in 1821. Some women, pregnant or with a sick child, did this." The Lanark Society Settlers, Carol Bennett
