I have decided to use Genforum for our quieries. The purpose of this site is to be a central place for Buchanan information. I think this is the best way. Below are listed the queries the were sent to me already.
Post your query to Genforum/Buchanan here.

Need info on my grandfather,s,Robert Washington Buchanan, ancestors.  He was born in 1833 near or in Talladega, AL.  He is in Tishomningo County, MS on the 1850 census living with James Riley Buchanan. We have information on James Riley Buchanan's family and know there is a connection with our Robert Washington Buchanan, but so far have not been able to make this connection.  RWB has great-grandchildren and great-great grandchildren and 3g grandchildren living in Tishomingo and Iuka today.  Have looked for Robert Washington Buchanan's parents for years.  If anyone knows of any Buchanan's in or around Talladega, please get in touch.  Thank you.

Am looking for the ancestors of John BUCHANAN  born in Farenize (sp?) Scotland in 1765.  He married Agness WYLIE (WILLEY) in Abbey, Renfrewshire, Scotland, Oct. 9, 1788.  She was the daughter of Hugh "WILLIE" and Jannet GIBSON.  John and Agness immigrated to Montreal, possibly with their sons William and Walter, in 1811.  He died in 1834, and she died in Boucherville, Montreal in June, 1847.
Also interested in any information re. his grandchildren--
  William Wylie Buchanan, 1815-1856, Quebec, CA
  Ellen Buchanan, 18161826, Quebec/Montreal, CA
  Henrietta Buchanan, 1818, Montreal, CA
  Jessie Buchanan, 1819, Montreal, CA
  Agness Buchanan, 1821-1837, Quebec/Montreal, CA
  Alexander Buchanan, 1822, Montreal, CA
  John Buchanan, 1826, Montreal, CA
  Anna Frierson Buchanan, 1828, Montreal, CA
  Matilda Fraser Buchanan, 1829, Montreal, CA
  Jane Buchanan, 1832, Montreal, CA
The parents of all of the above were William Buchanan (one of John's sons) and Ellen Fraser who were married abt. 1813, presumably in Montreal.
  They had one other daughter, Margaret Buchanan who married William Gardner.  They are my ancestors and I have a record of that line.
Thank you.

  Can anyone out there connect with John BUCHANAN, born 1773 in Scotland?  He married Mary MCCLELLAN, and they had at least one daughter, Margaret BUCHANAN born in 1793.  Margaret emigrated to Canada with her husband, Robert FERGUSON, and two sons and two daughters in 1816.
