MFH: 08 July

Today is the 240th anniversary of the birth of my 5th great-grandfather, James Ormiston, Sr. James was born on 08 July 1768 in Carnwath, Lanarkshire, Scotland. James married Christiana Lamb in 1795 in Libberton, Lanarkshire, Scotland. They had 9 children. Sometime in the 1830's James and his family immigrated to the USA and settled in Barlow Township, Washington County, Ohio. James died 24 July 1849 in Barlow Township and buried there at the Fleming Cemetery. My descent from James is:
