Jannette was the eldest daughter (of three) and eldest child (of nine) of James and Christiana (Lamb) Ormiston, Sr. In about 1820, she married Robert Haddow in Scotland. On 06 June 1834, they arrived at the port of New York on board the ship Portaferry along with a daughter and three sons. By 1836, the family had settled in Barlow Township, Washington County, Ohio where two more daughters were born. Jannette died in Barlow Township 29 November 1866 and is buried in the Fleming Cemetery there.
