Thanks for the welcome.  I have been enjoying the posts I am reading.

I forgot to say on my original post re: the ship "The Statira Morse" arriving in NY --  that I read on the posts and interpreted as the Euphemia Burt listed is really probably Euphemia Beveridge - therefore my thinking that Andrew Burt is really Peter Burt is further enhanced.

Peter Burt married Margaret Beveridge.  They ended up in Oregon, but I think all of her brothers that came over stayed in Pennsylvania.

Margarets brother James and his wife Euphemia Hynd beveridge settled in allegheny county pennsylvania their 2 oldest children were born before they left scotland Alexander and james. Agnes and john were born in pennsylvania.
James beveridge is buried in Salem Cemetery in Pine Township Allegheny County Pennsylvania I have not been able to find where his wife is buried. She is not on our 1900 census so I assume she died before 1900   Beans

I have been researching Isabell(a) Spowart Burt McArthur of New Era, Oregon.  My grandmother passed down some quilts made by Isabell and a very large portrait of her as well.  I have recently had the quilts looked at by a quilt historian, the main fabrics are from the 1820-1900. Some of the cloth (black ones) were mourning cloth, some probably other clothing. They are beautiful quilts with no signs of wear.  They were made for my grandmother, Veda Alice Brown Schroeder.  I would be happy to post pictures, but I am not sure how to do it on this site.

I need to make a correction on the dates of the fabrics in the quilts mentioned above.  The correct dates are 1880-1900 in one of the quilts.  The other quilts are in the 1920's to late 1930's range.

No the Andrew is Andrew Burt and the Peter is Peter Burt 2 different people.  Peter Burt came over before the rest of his family.  The Andrew is Peter's brother. All of this has been verified.   Beans
