| I am trying to find any information on a James Henderson likely from northern Scotland - possibly Aberdeenshire. He would have left Scotland mid nineteenth century and most likely travelled to New York or Pennsylvania. There are rumors that he had stolen his father's horse and sold it for passage to America, which I believe is only a story. He fought for the Northern Army against a brother who fought for the Southern Army in the American Civil War. They are buried next to each other at the foot of a hill in North Carolina, although the exact location has been lost to those of us trying to find it in the last 20 years. Supposedly he had red hair and quite a temper. I would appreciate any possible leads. Thanks for the help. Kelsey |
