thank you for reply,i seen the families you have,they only have births and deaths but not the death or whereabouts of the leslie born 1879,i am trying to find where he went and whether he had another family where he died and when,thanks a lot for offering

Hi ,

I'm not having any luck with Leslie , there are plenty of McKenna's on the passenger lists to USA/Canada/Australia but no Leslie's of that age.

Did Leslie have another name ?

I have had ancestors shown on passenger lists with their middle name as their given name.

Another thought.

You say that Leslie and his wife Jane left Scotland without the 3 boys. Did the boys rejoin him at a later date?

hi again,leslie didn,t have a middle name,the boys never seen him again,which doesn,t make him very popular but he is still an ancestor.i thuoght i had him leaving glasgow in 1912 on ship numidian listed as l mckenna with a female mckenna,the ship was bound for halifax nova scotia,i think it was then heading for boston,if it is them i lost them after that,thanks again for your help.
