Welcome to Our Maritime Ties

ourmaritimeties.com is our home on the Internet for our genealogical research. We have chosen this name since many of our family lines, by 1800, were settled in what are now the Maritime Provinces of Canada (New Brunswick, Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island). See below for the most common surnames from our research. Annette and Arthur
 

My sister, Brenda (Owen) Creighton, has entered a quilter contest sponsored by McCall’s.  While I know very little about quilting, her quilts are always very beautiful.  A small photo of her quilt (Celtic Dreams) is pictured on the right. If you think it merits your time to vote for her you do so by clicking on the quilt.  You are allowed to vote daily up to and  including 20 May.

 

Results of a recent Y-DNA test done on a patrilineal descendant  of Jesse Strang has confirmed a previous test results and proved that Jesse Strang is not a patrilineal descendant of the Strang family of Westchester County, New York.  Although we may never know, the Y-DNA results indicates that a member of the Tompkins family of Westchester County, New York is likely Jesse’s father.  I also strongly believe that Jesse’s mother was Mary Strang, daughter of Daniel Strang and Elizabeth Galpin and brother of Daniel Strang the recruiter, who later married Jacob Silliker.

More details on the Y-DNA test results, our analysis and conclusions can be found at Jesse Strang DNA.
