Lanarkshire / Re: John Fell - 1871 - lanarkshire

Yes it is the same family.  William left his wife and adult children in Scotland when he came to Canada with his son Joseph.  I have letters from the children who remained there to their father here in Canada.  Specifically a letter telling him of Janet's death in 1850 with a lock of her hair inside the letter.  She is buried in Carluke Cemetery Lair #453.  I have many items that William saved in a black box and was handed down the generations to me.
His relationship with Agnes and the birth of John in Carluke is a guess.  As William Fell is listed as the father on John's death record.  Our family also had copy of the Speech John gave at the 7th Annual Soiree of the Natives of Carluke held in Glasgow in 1871 so I know there is a connection there.  Joseph named one of his sons James Haddow Fell, my G Grandfather.
William's wife Janet was born 03 May 1779 in Easterseat Carluke (Parents John Haddow and Betty Robertson).  She was actually 71 when she died.  The age of 49 listed on the OPR is incorrect.

My name is Karen Fell in Ontario Canada.  I am a direct descendant of William Fell b.1777 who married Janet Haddow in 1799.  He came to Canada with his son Joseph in 1830's.  I have shared much info with Douglas and have been researching 20 years.   I also have a connection with  John Fell b1814 in Carluke (mother Agnes Forrest) and his Aunt Janet White.  I see many posts from people re this family and would like to know more about your connection and to share what info or theories you may have.  I'm still looking for proof that this William Fell had 3 separate families and was he born in England.
Thanks,  Karen

My 3x GGrandfather was William Fell married to Janet Haddow in 1799 at Cambusnethan, Lanarkshire, Scotland.  He may have had a son Johnson b. 1792/3 and he may have had a son John Fell b. 1813 (illegitimate).   His legitmate son Joseph Fell b. 1805 came to Canada with his father William in 1832.
I am trying to find more proof or any other info about this William Fell prob. born 1770-1777 in Scotland or England?
