NICHOL Family - Surrey

[tess4207]

Hi
James Nichol with his wife and family were on another ship the John Bunyon.He lost a daughter either on the voyage or soon after.
Yes it was very sad for Jane to have lost her husband 10 days before arrival and have a young child and a baby on the way.All this to bear and a new and unknown country and future.
The families seem to have settled in the same area so she would have had some support at least.
I believe Downham is in Lancashire please correct me if I am incorrect.
Adam and James were both gamekeepers by occupation.
I have just found a record of the marriage of Adam and Jane on Scotlands people
and now have my avenue to obtain certificate and confirmation of parentage.
The information on the Lds site is correct. Thankyou so much for your trouble

You're welcome, Tess & good luck with the family research
