    If you can see Sandyhalls message bellow, it shows My Robert Sloans children, married to Elizabeth Thornton. I am a descendant of the James Thornton Sloan, one of his sons, Garfield David Sloan, my grandfather, and my father Wilbert L. Sloane. Garfield put the (e) on the name when he moved from Ontario, Canada to Alberta and homesteaded a mile west of the little town of Cayley, Alberta, which is approx. 40 miles south of Calgary.
    As far as I know, all of the info in my Robert Sloan tree is confirmed.
    Thanks Dave

    You need to look for the marriage cert. for Robert Slon and Eliza/Elizabeth as they married in Canada if they are the same as ours it shold have Both fathers name on it.

    I have just found a marriage of a William Sloan (Widower) aged 65 born Co Antrim (he would have been born arround 1814 to Margaret McPhee (Widow)His Parents are Robert and Nancy Sloan.

    Could this be a clue to his family.

    Have you checked the local newspapers for obituaries of all those who died in the Halton area? While 1844 is rather early for a really useful obit., some of the later ones might be helpful. One for my great grand in 1914 (or it may have been 1904 for her husband)in Thorold named her father which I have eventually proved after 40 years. There was no other clue or document. pwholt
