Hi Wendy: I may have touched base with you before so please let me know . I am looking for the family of 6 Close brothers. Robert, Alexander and James came to Baltimore Maryland between 1830-1845. We believe the other 3 bros. Hugh, John and William went to Canada. We know the names are accurate from the will of James Close who died in 1889 in Maryland. He mentioned his bros. who lived in Ne?anee Canada. He also had a nephew named James A. Close, who was a doctor and we think this James is the son of one of the Close bros. in Canada. The James who died in 1889 married very late in life and had no children. We think the parents of these brothers were named William and Sarah (Preston) Close. My line is Robert who married Margaret Stewart from County Down. We have a lot of info. of both Close/Stewarts once in Baltimore Maryland but cannot find them or their families in their native home of Ireland. Any suggestions? My e-mail is (*) Thank you
