Drennan/Drannan; SCT;CAN; USA
My 3x great grandmother, Jannet RAE, was baptized in Middlebie, Dumfries-shire, Scotland circa 1796. Her father is listed as George RAE, in the OPR, but unfortunately,her mother's name is not listed. Family lore says that she married John Drennan and had three sons, emigrating to Canada with the boys around the late 1850s, suposedly after her husband's death.
I'm not very sure that this is actually what happened. I have found the OPR entries for the two older boy's baptisms but have been unable to find any record of a marriage with John, or any baptismal/birth entry for her oldest son, George, under DRENNAN or RAE.
I have the suspicion that Jannet was previously married and that George was the product of this earlier relationship.

Jannet and her sons, George, James (my great great grandfather),and John, settled in Huron County, Ontario. John later moved to Fargo,North Dakota, but I have been unable to find him on the 1885 Dakota Territory Census, so I'm not sure where he went from there. Jannet passed away on November 06, 1874.
