William Greenlaw

Any Errors or conflicts are inevitable, due to the
many sources compiled here. Most are contributed by
family members personal recolections plus findings at
the Salt Lake Family History Library Records. All
contacts are welcome. The Early Bryants data end in
Florida,but are alleged to emanate from Georgia .The
Sherrards start in Lawrence Miss.

Family emmigrated in the summer of 1753, sailing
from Renfrewshire, Scotland in the Ship "Dolphin"
They landed at Piscataqua, Maine then proceeded up
the St. Georges River to Warren, Maine. Then to Boston,
and back to Deer Isle ,Hancock County, Maine

DEATH: Also, reported as 1776 in Warren, ME.

BIOGRAPHY: This information was obtained off the Internet the first part of August 2002. Information was collected from Ancestry.com, a commerical genealogy site and familysearch.org, the LDS genealogy site.

Information below found at: http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/franbennett/williamg.htm

William Greenlaw of Scotland and Maine, USA
William Greenlaw - 001
Born: 9 Mar 1712 in Liberton, Midlothian, Scotland (?) (see below)
Died: 1776 Deer Isle, Hancock Co., Maine (?) (see below)
The family emmigrated in the summer of 1753, sailing from Greenock, Renfrewshire, Scotland, in the ship, Dolphin. The Dolphin landed at Piscataqua, ME, where the immigrants remained for about a week or possibly longer, then proceeded up St. Georges River and landed at what is now known as Warren, ME. The family later relocated to Boston, MA, then to Penobscot, Deer Isle, ME, sometime prior to 1762, where they settled on Campbells Neck.

NEW INFORMATION:
According to an LDS family genealogy, William was b. 9 Mar 1712 in Liberton, Edinburgh, Scotland, and was the son of John Greenlaw and Elizabeth Thompson. That genealogy also states that he m. 1731 and d. 1776 Deer Isle, ME. The m. date appears to be incorrect and none of the information has been personally verified, but the Old Parish Registers of Scotland show the following: John Greenlaw m. Elspeth Thomson 19 Aug 1709 in Liberton, Midlothian, Scotland, and had the following children, all recorded in Liberton: Elspeth, chr. 18 Jun 1710; William, chr. 14 Mar 1712; Robert, chr. 21 May 1714; Hellen, chr. 13 Jan 1717; Margaret, chr. 8 Jul 1719; James, chr. 4 Mar. 1722; Elspeth, b. 30 Mar. 1725; John, b. 8 Jun 1728; and Janet b. 18 Jan 1731. In one record, Elspeth Thomson is shown as "Elspeth Thomsone," and in some as "Elspeth Thomson," and the remainder as "Elizabeth Thomson." This information remains to be verified.


Married: ca. 1729 in Scotland (no record found in the Old Parish Registers of Scotland)
Spouse:
Jane ?
Born: ca. 1710 in Scotland
Died: date unknown but at Deer Isle, Maine

Children (order of birth uncertain except that Jonathan is said to be the third son):
James Greenlaw (b.ca 1729/30) - 002 <jamesgr3.htm> William Greenlaw, Jr. (b. 1738) - 009 <william3.htm> Jonathan Greenlaw (b. 1738) - 004 <jonathan.htm> Ebenezer Greenlaw (b. 1740) - 003 <ebenezer.htm> Charles Greenlaw (b. 1743) - 006 <charlesg.htm> Alexander Greenlaw (b. 1748) - 005 <alexande.htm>

NEW INFORMATION:
Justine Gengras has provided information that John and Jean, previously shown by me as the children of William and Jane, were not the children of William and Jane. John was the brother of William, and Jean was John's daughter. That information appears to be accurate but is shown as probable pending further investigation.

Probable brother of William Greenlaw, immigrant to Maine:
John Greenlaw (b. 1728) - 008 <johngre2.htm>

Sources: Numerous ship passenger list references; research of Roger Archambault from records kept by Hazel Medora (Greenlaw) Flanders, Ada Halen (Hart) Greenlaw, and Geraldine Ada (Flanders) (Archambault) Flanders; research of Justine Gengras; family history provided by the Bowie family; Deer Isle/Stonington, ME Historical Society records; Old Parish Registers of Scotland

Following is from newspaper clippin of Wed., August 2, 1933. (paper notidentified). Titled "OLD HANCOCK COUNTY FAMILYS" by William M. Pierce.

"William Greenlaw and his family came to Maine in America from Greenock, Renfrewshire, Scotland, in the "DOLPHIN" in the summer of 1753, After touching at Piscataqua, where the Greenlaw family and other Scotch immigrants remained for a week or more, the "DOLPHIN" and its passengers proceed up George's River, the passengers landing on the west side of the river, in the lower part of what is now Warren, Me., in September. William Greenlaw and his family moved from what is now Warren to Boston, Mass., from which place they moved to what is now Penobscot, Deer Isle or vicinity, where they settled on a farm and where William Greenlaw is said to have been living near the close of the eighteenth century."

Some members of William's family later migrated to New Brunswich and NovaScotia in the late 18th century.
