Surnames: FERGUSON and DARBY

Who was Elizabeth D. FERGUSON born abt. 1804 in NY - married Francis Gore DARBY on February 9, 1831 in Queenston, Ontario, Canada? She moved with her husband and children to Michigan settling in Macomb County first, about 1852, and then moving to Almont Twp., Lapeer Co., MI. We believe Elizabeth d. Jan 22, 1876 in Almont Twp. Her children were; George b. 1831 St. Catherines, Ontario - Charlotte E. b. May 4, 1837 St. Catherines and possibly William F. b. 1843. I have been told that her family lived next door to the DARBY family in Grantham Twp., old Lincoln Co., Ontario in 1828. Elizabeth's husband, Francis, d. July 14, 1897 in Walworth Co., SD.

Surnames: FERGUSON

I'm curious if you have come across any information on Carlos Ferguson. I believe he was originally from Detroit, Michigan. He was married prior to marrying my grandmother, Gertrude (Polish last name that I can't spell). They had ten children, one of which is my father, Richard Dale Ferguson, who is now 51 years old. My grandfather, Carlos Ferguson, died about 18 years ago and was at that time a resident of Puryear, Tennessee.

#7 April 17, 1999

Surnames: FERGUSON, POTTER and HAUGHTON

I am searching for info on a James FERGUSON who was married to Elizabeth and had children George and Rebecca. James and Elizabeth were in Scio, Washtenaw County, Michigan from at least 1839 until 1844. They then went to Monroe County, MIchigan where they stayed until 1847. hey then turn up in Washington Twp., Lucas County, Ohio. Based on census records, James was born around 1811 and may have been James Jr. He was born in New Hampshire and was a physician. His wife Elizabeth is the head of household in 1860 so I'm guessing he died between 1850 and 1860. His daughter Rebecca married John POTTER. They had children Ray and Betsey. James' son George married Ruth HAUGHTON. They had children Georgia, Keren, Ruth, Hiram, Willis and Haughton.
I would like to find more about James and Elizabeth. Thanks for any help you can give.
