All,
I'm fairly new to this, but am a descendant from William and Agnes Longmuir (Saskatchewan, Canada) and am trying desperately to trace our ancestry back to an origin (as far back as possible) in Scotland.
I've been able to trace back William crossing to Nova Scotia on the "Siberian" and landing in 1905. However, from what I can tell, our family originated in Lanarkshire. On the ship's transcripts the description reads "Farmer" which makes sense as we are still farmers in Canada, Age 25, and Single as a marital status. All this adds up, but from what I can tell his father would have been John Longmuir.
Can anyone help?
