    reason they returned immediately to Scotland. However in the
    same year they again sailed for America, this time to stay.
    The events of their second journey are related in a letter now
    held by a family member (see H-009, P. 163) which tells a story of
    about 3 months of stormy seas, finally surviving on ship by
    collecting and drinking rain water and eating from small rations
    of dried beans and peas.

    believed that John first worked in the shipyards in New York. The next
    record is of his marriage to Jane at Galena, IL. Soon after their
    marriage John and Jane moved to Dubuque Co., Iowa whrer all of their
    children were born. In 1877 the family moved to Cherokee Co., Iowa and
