- Info from Margaret McKinnon
She apparently had three children before she married Robert McQueen. Did two of these come to Canada to settle near James McQueen? There is land owned by a Fingland near JMs in 1875. One of the half sisters became a Mrs. Stewart. She had two sons, Jim and ?
Info Aug 2001 - The three children were born after Robert McQueen died in 1808 with the father being un-named in parish records. Jean may not be a daughter, depending on when she was born as Agnes may have been too old.
Agnes came to Canada about 1835 with the three children.

Looking for the parents, birthplace, and birth date of Agnes Fingland who d. in Kirkwall, Ontario, Canada in 1842 aged 70. She m. Robert McQueen (b. 1751 at Stoneyburn, Crawford parish Lanarkshire; d. 1808, supposedly in Cold Chapel, Wandel parish, Lanarkshire) in 1805 in Grenada (no documentation for this, alas). Their son, James, my great-grandfather, was b. 1806 in Strathwhairn, Durisdeer, emigrated to Canada in 1832, and d. 1889 in Kirkwall. Agnes came to Canada in 1836 with two or three subsequent children: Robert Fingland, b. 1815 in Durisdeer; a daughter b. in 1820-1 in Durisdeer (these were natural children, no father listed), and another female child supposedly b. 1828--when Agnes would have been 58!

I am looking for an Agnes McQueen who in 1836 traveled with a Julia Fingland age 13 and a Jane Fingland age 5 from Scotland to Canada. They appear on a passenger list from the ship Estelle that arrived in New York July 22 1836. They are with the family of William and Margaret (nee Mills) Fingland and their two children William and Elizabeth who settled near Guelph Ontario. Some have assumed that they were the children of William and Margaret but I am quite confident that they are not but are likely in some way related.I would really appreciate hearing from you. My email address is fingland@sympatico.caThank you.Joyce Fingland
