Magill's From Lisbon, New York...
"My Surnames: Magill, Stuart/Stewart, Boyd, Martin, Briggs, Barns, Gambier. My Magills came from Ireland in May 1844 and moved directly to New York Mills, NY., Oneida County. I feel that they came there because they had other family in the area. My James Magill was born in 1784 in Ireland or possibly Scotland and his wife Elizabeth Stewart/Stuart Magill was born in 1792.
One of their sons, had the name Hugh Stewart Magill, so I have guessed that the name Hugh could come from either of the grandparents or possibly a brother. When did your Magill family come to NY and where in Ireland were they? My James Magill came from Dromore, Ireland, just south of Belfast. There were also Stewarts?Stuarts in the New York Area who were possibly family of Elizabeth Stuart Magill. Do you think these two familys could be related? My Magills were Scotch Presbyterians." -- Scotty - EMAIL: roberge@pa.net
