BEARDSLEY and WIGGINS - Why We Are ...Who We Are
BEARDSLEY/ENGELS Family LineMy husband's paternal family line decends from WILLIAM BEARDSLEY, Immigrant who arrived in 1620 from England with his wife Mary HARVEY, and their first three children, Mary, John and Joseph. They settled first in MA. and then helped establish the town of Stratford, CT. His mother's family are all of German descent. His grandfather was Walter Maximillian ENGELS who was born in 1880 in Elizabeth, New Jersey. He was married to Wilhelmina DRESING, born in New York City, NY in 1879. Walter's father was Frederick W. ENGELS born in Germany location unknown. He arrived on the ship Breman from Hamburg in 1873. His wife's name was Ernestine. He was a Baker by trade and he had a sister named Renate who was a seamstress. This is all we know about the ENGELS line. Wilhelmina was the daughter of Frederick G.W. DRESING who was also born in Germany. He operated a grocery store in N.Y.C. He and his wife Elizabeth F. Jaegle had 11 children and they celebrated their 50th anniversary in 1917. Elizabeth Jaegle was born in New York City and had a brother named William. We believe her father was a farmer. WIGGINS/SMITH Family Line My PATERNAL ancestor was Rev. War Soldier, WILLIAM WIGGINS, born in NC circa 1755. He was married to Elizabeth COOPER, daughter of Fleet Cooper, Sr. and Margaret COOR. It is thought that his father may have been George Wiggins, born c. 1725 in Duplin, N.C. Any assistance to verify this information would be appreciated. My MATERNAL line is the greatest challenge. My grandfather was Geoge Wilson SMITH and my grandmother was adopted. Her adopted name was Grace Emma MARSHALL and we believe her natural name was Elizabeth PRESUITA or PRESEITA. She may have been born in Italy. She was adopted through the Fairmount Childrens Home in Alliance Ohio in 1905. She had a younger sister named Mary born in 1904. It is very possible that the parents gave false information when they left the children as foundlings. Also, the sketchy infomation from the records says that the father was in the Canton WorkHouse. I have never been able to find out any information about such a place. Grandfather's papa was Martin Gring SMITH, son on LeFerry SMITH (1824-1906 PA & Iowa) and Frances Fanny GRING, (1827-1906) dau. of Isreal GRING of PA. Martin was married to Samantha (Manta) WILSON (1867-1935) She was the daughter of Joshua Henry WILSON bn 1824 in Indiana and Frances TEMPLETON born in Ohio.Joshua Henry's father was Grinner WILSION born 1793 in NC. He married in Wayne County Indiana Eleanor Blair WALKER said to be the daughter of James WALKER of Ireland. Who was Griner's father? Was it Milton or Israel?

The Atkinson McKinnon Home Page
InterneTree: Frederick Stuart Atkinson On the McKinnon, Stuart and Scottish Clans sides, the heritage of Mary Queen of Scott's and the Battle of Culloden Moor and have deeply affected our Scotch family history. Because of religious persecution, battles and wars, our Scotch ancestors ended up hastily leaving Scotland, from The Isle Of Skye, on the Ark and Dove and immigrated to Prince Edward Island. The Atkinson Family Tree ancestors emigrated from Europe (England, Scotland, Wales, Ireland, Holland, France and Germany, Italy, Switzerland). Others came from Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, New York and Pennsylvania in particular. This is not unusual because the Maritime Provinces were a haven for those loyal to the British Crown and setters were promised substantial land grants from the British government to move to the Maritimes after the expulsion of the Acadians. It is interesting to note that our family also includes Iroquois and/or Micmac Native American women marrying at least two separate ancestors in the US and Nova Scotia. Another ancestor came to Duxbury MA area in the 1621, on the ship that came after the Mayflower called the Fortune. On the Atkinson side, my grandfathers 5th great grandfather Benjamin Allen left New England and fought in the French and Indian War on the British side in Nova Scotia. He was badly wounded losing a leg, was discharged and sent back to New England, settling and starting a family in Kingston, MA. He later went back to Halifax, NS and joined in the ill-fated Eddy Rebellion, and after the Eddy Rebellion failed, he became a wanted man. He eventually joined the Tories in Nova Scotia during the American Revolutionary War. He would have been hung as a traitor if he returned to his home and family in Kingston, MA. We are also descended from Col. Hezekiah King and Col. Benoni Danks who were infamous participants in the Eddy Rebellion. On the Atkinson side we are related to Presidents John Adams, Samuel Adams and William Howard Taft, Poets Henry Wadsworth Longfellow and Ralph Waldo Emerson, Betty Ford and singer Ann Murray to name a few.
