Although Eva brought 5 McNutt children into the marriage, she and John Sr had one child together, John Pencil, Jr. John Jr married Fanny Jackson c1816. Would like any info on this couple as well. Thanks

Which surnames are you researching?	Johnston
Comments:	I am fascinated with your wonderful web site. My great grandfather was Captain Robert Johnston who retired to South Fredericksburgh TWSP. His son William Benjamin was my grandfather and his son Roy Johnston was my father. William Benjamin's first wife was Harriet Gael Symonds. I have never been able to locate her burial site, even though William Benjamin is in Riverside Cemetery along with his second wife Amy Auguata Walker. Someone wrote an article about Captain Robert Johnston and spoke of contents in his obituary. His obituary would interest me greatly, but am at a loss to find it. Any information would be appreciated. F. Thurlow

Which surnames are you researching?	Garrison
Comments:	This site is very informative. Congratulations to all the volunteers. My ggggrandfather was Marvel Garrison Sr. He obtained a crown deed for 100 acres in Fredericksburg on Dec. 8, 1806. Cemetery records indicate that he was buried in Garrison Cemetery. Would be interested in knowing if this cemetery still exists. Also would like to know how to go about finding where he came from. I think he came from New York as a U.E.L. but haven't been able to verify this.

Comments:	Susan, I like your site. It's well organized & easy to find info. I especially like the photograph display. I found some info the L & A Museum didn't have. If anyone has any info that is not at the museum on the family of Robert Wilson Colville (1863-1922) & Annie P. McNeill (d. 1922) I would appreciate hearing from them. Also if someone has photos of this family or related families I would like to get copies. Thanks. Roger McCalmont

Where are you from?	Fretts Lane, Napanee
Comments:	Just found this site through the Town of G. Napanee's website. I'm interested in learning more about the history of the land we own on Fretts Lane. A quick run with the metal detector found what looks to be a section of old cast iron pipe, plus a few other still-buried hits as well. Also, there is what appears to be an old foundation situated overlooking Little Creek. It's small and may in fact just be a hole in a rock pile, but if anyone can tell me where I could find out about the history of any buildings on my property, it would be much appreciated! Thanks!
