Hello!

I have an interest in this Kirkby Moorside Russell family.  It is possible that they left England in 1843 and ended up in Canada, via the USA.  I have no definite proof, just lots of persuasive pointers.  Does anyone have any info on these folks?

In regard to the Russell family of Kirkbymoorside -- I now know that they did indeed leave England in 1843, or at least most of them did.  Christopher & Rebecca & David settled in Ontario, Canada.  There are several more children than are shown on the 1841 census doc.

Hi Jaunty,

Thanks for your troubles, I was looking up the Russell family for another old lady in Yorkshire, but she did not want to carry back any further into the family. That is as far as I have gone.

Regards
