Hi John,
Welcome to the Clan Maclea Livingstone Forum. Two related Achabegg, Morvern families settled in Scioto County and neighbouring Lawrence County, Ohio the first one in the late 1840's and the second one left Morvern in 1851 to join the other relatives that were living in Scioto County, Ohio and subsequently the second Livingston family settled in neighbouring Lawrence County. In the late 1840's Angus Livingston b. 1808 in Barr Morvern who had been in America for a few years was joined by his widowed mother Catharine Livingston (Mrs. Duncan Livingston Sr.) formerly in the 1840's a tenant with her son Duncan Livingston Jr. b. 1810 and they ended up living with her son Angus Livingston b. 1808 and his wife wife Margaret Livingston and their infant Duncan Livingston 1850-1910 later Ohio Lawyer and family genealogist by 1850 in Scioto County, Ohio. In 1851 the widow Mrs Hugh Livingston Euphemia Campbell the daughter in law of the widow Catharine Livingston of Scioto County and former croft neighbour at Achabegg back in Morvern, left Morvern with her children in the year 1851 according to passenger records and apparently joined her husbands family in Scioto County, Ohio. Subsequently in the 1850's Euphemia Campbell Livingston and her family ended up apparently living in neighbouring Lawrence County, Ohio. There is quite a bit of information on this forum regarding these two Achbegg, Morvern families that settled in late 1840's and 1851 in Ohio on this Forum. I am in touch with two descendants of the Euphemia Livingston who came to Ohio in 1851 widow of Mr. Hugh Livingston who died possibly in 1847 in Achabegg, Morvern. As mentioned her children lived in Lawrence County, Ohio. Perhaps that is the MOrvern family who settled in 1851 who you are referring to. We would be interested if you share a simple generation by generation ancestral line list of family connection as far back as you can go, to your Ohio Livingston so that we can confirm it is the same family and also to get a sense how you are related to the Ohio Livingston family.
I am sorry there is no closely related Livingston family connection between these two related Ohio Livingston families both originally from Barr and later Achabegg, MOrvern with the Anson County North Carolina Livingston according to familytreedna testing, although they share a share a distant highland Argyllshire common ancestor according to these same tests just not closely related. Interesting about your wife's North Carolina Covington family connection. Please let me know how you are related to the Ohio Livingston family who settled in 1851 and what you know of your own family connection to that family. Myself and two others connected to this forum have done a lot of research and in some cases made some revisions to original understanding of the original Morvern family that settled in Ohio.
I am of Morvern Livingstone ancestry distantly related but not closely related to the Morvern Livingston I mention who settled in Ohio in the mid 1800's but the other two researchers I have been working with are in fact direct descendant of Euphemia Livingston widow of Hugh Livingston of Achbegg, Morvern (See 1841 Scottish census Achabegg, Morvern, Argyll for Hugh and Euphemia Livingston.) Hugh died between 1846-1850 probably following the birth of their last child around 1846 and then impoverished Euphemia ended up with some of the children housed with other dispossessed tenants in Lochaline, Morvern and some of the older children found work. Then in 1851 sometime after the 1851 Census was conducted, Euphemia and all of her children left later in 1851 for America and ultimately to join her brother-in law Angus Livingston and his wife, brother in law Duncan Livington Jr. brother in law John Livingston and her mother in law Catharine Livingston widow of Duncan Livingston Sr. who all in 1850 according to the U.S Census resided on the farm of Euphemia's brother in law Angus Livingston and his wife Margaret. Sometime later in the 1850's Euphemia and children settled in neighbouring Lawrence County.

Donald
