My sister and I have been looking for our FERGUSON connection. We have found from military records that our grandfather Charles A. FERGUSON b 8/30/1878 in Providence NY, d 1942 (?) in Biloxi, MS. Served in US Army in Co E 2nd Artillary 5/29/1899 to 5/29/1902. Parents were Anthony and Ellen (?) FERGUSON. There was at least one other child born to them, David FERGUSON. We have heard that our gggreat grandfather was a fur trapper in Canada and married an Indian lady from the Ottawa Tribe.
Looking for any connections.
