This month's Armstrong News includes a real Armstrong Family Tree, detailing the descendants of James Armstrong (1666) and Mary Yeates. This branch of the clan originated in Scotland, before migrating to Ireland and onwards to America. There's even a footnote that links the family to Col. Edward McCarty,an officer in the Revolutionary Army under George Washington who was present at the surrender of Lord Conwallis. The provenance of this tree is uncertain, but parts of the tree have been verified from Parish Records. A full transcription is included in Issue 76 of The Armstrong News, available to Association members. |
