Northumberland Lookup Requests / Re: JOHN BARCLAY BIRTH
« on: Tuesday 27 July 10 23:31 BST (UK) »
Hi there, Hannah Rochester Barclay (Whitfield) was my great-great grandmother. I'm sitting here with my grandmother who knows the history of Hannah Barclay daughter of Captain John Barclay Master Mariner and Hannah Rochester Barclay.
Elizabeth was her sister and she died around the age of 19-21 years of spinal meningitis. Her sister said she had bright red hair. Charles Octavious Barclay immigrated to Austrailia, married, had 3 children, and died in World War I. John, Marc, and Hannah all immigrated to Canada.
I have more details concerning this family and some pictures of Charles Octavious, Hannah, John, Marc (and their wives) as well as one of John Barclay Sr. in his diving suit. Hope this helps.
P.S. Just out of curiousity what is your connection to this family?
