Re: Peter Livingston & Jenneta Riddel

Maybe I will find William Livingston's wife buried there too. I know one relative in Scotland figured there was a family connection to Dr. Livingston but could not proof it. Would be nice if my nephew took the test to proof it.

Thank you for the information and I will be passing it on.

Re: Peter Livingston & Jenneta Riddel

I did find out that my grandfather William Livingston was sued for breach of promise. Rachel Dougherty, Doherty had twins out of wedlock. Ellen May and James Milton (Moffat/Moffet) they took their step father's last name. Her brother was married to William's sister so that probably caused a lot of p...

Re: Peter Livingston & Jenneta Riddel

Donald I don't have pictures of my grandmother but I do have them of her father and mother, and both her brothers. This gives me a good idea how she looked. The picture of her father is a drawing but it still is a very good one. From talking to these distant cousins I know they were all very short. ...
