My great-great grandfather was Nathaniel McKee. He arrived in July of 1812
at the age of 20. This I found out from a book by Kenneth Scott lisitng
British Aliens who had to register during the War of 1812. He was listed
with his brother-in-law to be, John Witherspoon.
Nathaniel was a weaver as were so many of the Scotch-Irish. I have never
found any passenger ship list for him and I have no idea where he came from.
McKee is not an uncommon name in Northern Ireland. The only clue that I
would have liked to follow up was a listing in a Belfast newspaper of a
lease granted to a Nathaniel McKee in Ballybrian, Ards in 1792. My
Nathaniel was born about 1792 and I thought this might be his father as he
named his first son Nathaniel, also which was usually the custom with the
Presyterians. He married Elizabeth Witherspoon shortly after his arrival.
His children were named Nathaniel, Jane, Rosanna and James.
