    Notes:

    THE WANDERINGS OF JANE FERGUSON & ANDREW LAMOTT
    Jane FERGUSON was born around 1808 in Scotland. She married Nathaniel HAY & bore 3 female children by him; Jane, Catherine & an unnamed female, between 1825 & 1831. Sometime between 1831 - 1839, Jane became a widow. At least some of the children were born in Johnstone, Scotland.

    From an obituary of…….Jane HAY LANGDALE some background of the Hay family can be provided by Jane's obituary published 1st of November 1906 of the Delmont Record, which in part states: 
    Jane HAY born in Johnstone, Scotland 27th March 1825, came to Canada with her widowed mother & two sisters in 1840.
    While the obituary implies that there were 3 daughters who came to Canada along with their widowed mother, Jane FERGUSON HAY, in 1840, it is believed only 2 daughters, Catherine & Jane, made the trip with their mother, landing in Quebec. Jane Fergerson, & her daus. Jane & Catherine, (& possibly the third daughter) probably spent time on this Grosse Ile quarantine Island before continuing their journey to Quebec City & then by riverboat to Montreal.
    By 1844 Jane Ferguson had met & married Andrew Lamott, with whom she had another child, Rebecca Lamott. The 1861 Census of Ontario states that they were living in a log house. Andrew & Jane built this log house.
    The Arthur Township Residents list in 1867 had Andrew LAMOTT & Jane living in Concession OSR, Lot 26, with his son-in-law, "HR" Robert MCCUTCHEON & his daughter, Rebecca. 

    By 30th July 1870, Andrew & Jane had drifted down to Erie, Neosho, Kansas, USA & are found on the 1870 Census records living with a young family by the name of Phillips. 
    By 4th June 1880, Andrew & Jane were living independently on Ward? Street in the City of East Saginaw, County of Saginaw, Michigan, USA. Andrew was making a living as a carpenter. 

    1882 February 27 -the Lamotts homesteaded 160 acres of land in NW-I, section 17-96-61, Kulm Township, Hutchinson County, South Dakota, a was the head of a family, a wife & 3 children, & declared my intentions to become a citizen of the United States.
    Andrew built a 20 x 24 adobe house with plastered walls on the land & drilled a well in May 1882. 
    1886 - he built a stone stable. By October 1888, he had 26 acres broken.
    1885 Jun 1 - Andrew was now 70 years old, Jane 5 -10 years older.  Residednear their daughter, Jane, her husband Charles Langsdale & grandchildren.
    1888 Feb 28 - February 1888 Andrew became a naturalized American citizen.
    1888 Jun 19 - Jane Ferguson Hay Lamott died & buried Delmont Cemetery, South Dakota lying in an unmarked grave.  In the Langdale-Bundy plot there is an unnamed female occupant in block G, lot 10, grave 8, between Jane Langdale & Ralph Bundy, believed to be the grave of Jane Ferguson Hay Lamott.

    1888 Oct 26 -b Andrew Lamott, as a widower, mortgaged his land for $440. The patent on the land was issued 9th December, 1889. 16th May 1891, Mary Langdale's diary states:  We got a letter from Grandpa (Andrew Lamott). He is still well & likes the country well. He writes to father (Charles Langdale to offer his place for sale. He likes the climate & country so well he does not think he will come back."{ Likely referring to the farm located at the NW ¼ of Section 4; Township 19; Range 14; WPM near Glensmith, MB – HR's original Homestead]. Andrew sold the land 8th April 1892 for $900 plus a $440 mortgage to Homer W. JOHNSON of Douglas County, South Dakota.
    According to Mary Langdale's diary, shortly after Jane died, by 1891 Andrew perhaps came to Manitoba to visit his daughter & grandchildren who were living on HR's homestead quarter.  Catching the land grab fever, he applied for a land grant adjacent to HR's farm - the SW ¼ of Section 4; Township 19; Range 14; WPM. By the 25th January 1898, Andrew had fulfilled his obligations to the Crown for his homestead & received his Letters Patent.
    1898 Jun 7 Andrew Lamott died in Canada, &, at the age 83 years. He is buried in the Riverside Cemetery in Neepawa, MB in the McCutcheon family plot.
