The four ancestral lines of this family are:
The
Angus Family in
Lancashire, England.
This is the family of John Angus' father, Robert Angus of Lancashire, England. The Angus
family were industrial working-class folks from
Lancashire, England where their ancestry can be traced back to the early 1700s.
Very little narrative history is known of this family. Further information on
this family can be found
below on this page.The
Dobson Family in Lancashire,
England. This is the family of John Angus' mother, Judith
Dobson. The Dobson family also comes from Lancashire, England where
their ancestry can be traced back to the mid-1700s. More information on this
family can be found by clicking on the family name.
The
Duncan Family in
Glasgow, Lanarkshire, Scotland.
This is the family of Jessie Brown Duncan's father, Robert Wilson Duncan of
Glasgow, Lanarkshire, Scotland. The Duncan family were a working class
family from Lanarkshire who were previously Ulster Scots from Northern Ireland
where their ancestry can be traced to the early 1800s. More information on this family can be found by
clicking on the family name.The
Hunter Family in Lanarkshire,
Scotland.
This is the family of Jessie Brown Duncan's mother, Margaret Harten Hunter.
The Hunter maternal lineage of the Duncan family were a very poor working
class family from Lanarkshire, Scotland who were also Ulster Scots from
Northern Ireland where their ancestry can be traced back to the early 1800s. More information on this family can be
found by clicking on the family name.
The surname Angus came to England from Scotland where it is a common name, but its earliest origins are Irish. The name Angus is the English form of the old Gaelic name Aonghus, which is pronounced something like "oenish". The name Aonghus is of very ancient origin and has its roots in early Irish mythology as one of the most ancient names of the Celts. Aonghus possibly means "one strength" or "strong one" and may be derived from the Irish óen meaning "one" and gus meaning "force, strength, or energy". The Irish god named Aonghus (sometimes known as Aonghus Mac Og, meaning "Angus the young son") was the Irish god of love and youth. The name was also borne by an 8th-century Pictish (ancient Scottish) king and several Irish kings. In early mediaeval times a Saint Aonghus travelled from Iona to Perthshire and is credited with bringing Celtic (Irish) Christianity to Scotland. The surname Angus is a patronymic surname, in other words Angus was originally a first name long before surnames came into existence. It became a surname meaning "son of Angus". Synonymous surnames include Mac/McAngus or Angusson. The surnames MacNeish, MacNish and MacInnes are variations on MacAonghus.
Many ancient Scottish families would have chosen to name their children Aonghus and many of their first names would have evolved into later surnames, so the surname Angus certainly has multiple geographic origins. Thus it would be a mistake to say that our family is descended from any of the ancient Aonghuses named above. Nor can we conclude that we are necessarily related to any others with the surname Angus.
As Angus is also a place name in Scotland it is also probable that the surname Angus has geographic roots with families from the County of Angus choosing to adopt Angus as their surname and having no relation to any patronymic Anguses. Thus the surname Angus could also derive from an ancestor who came from the County of Angus.

The Angus Family in Lancashire, England
Our Angus ancestors came from Lancaster, Lancashire, England, before
immigrating to Canada in the early 20th century. They had lived in
Lancaster for about 200 years prior to emigrating. From the earliest records our
Anguses worked as sawyers or carpenters. The trade was passed from father to son
from the early 18th century until the late 20th century. Although our earliest
recorded ancestor lived in Lancashire and the family continued to live in
Lancashire until the early 20th century, family tradition always maintained that
our family roots were in Scotland. We have no documentary evidence to confirm
this tradition, but circumstantial evidence definitely supports it. Firstly,
Angus is not an English surname. It is, without a doubt, a Scottish surname (or
possibly Irish). Our earliest documented ancestor is William Angus who is found
in the district of Over-Wyresdale, just south of Lancaster, when he married
there and began having children there in 1724. There is no record of William's
birth and his family is the only family surnamed Angus anywhere in the vicinity
of Lancaster (and possibly within all of Lancashire) until the turn of the 19th
century. Such a situation strongly suggests that William was born outside of
Lancashire and that he immigrated. Whether he immigrated as a child, youth, or
young adult is impossible to say, but one would expect that if he came to
Lancashire with his birth family then we'd find records of siblings or their
descendants with the surname Angus in Lancashire (unless he had only sisters.)
Also the earliest records of the family give their surname spelled Anghurst
which I suggest represents a phonetic rendering of how they actually pronounced
their name. Such a pronunciation rings very Scottish. Indeed, if one were to
imagine Sean Connery saying the name "Angus" it would sound much like "Anghurst."
The surname spelling then shifts a generation later to Angious, which I suggest
represents a softening of the earlier Scottish pronunciation and a progressive
Anglicizing of the name. It is not until the mid-19th century that we see the
Anglo spelling of "Angus" become consistent. Each of these earlier spellings
also strongly resemble the two most common Gaelic spellings of the name, Aonghas
or Anghais, giving further support to the suggestion of a Scottish origin for
our family. As such, it is suggested below that William Angus/Anghurst was
probably born in Scotland, however, given the commonness of his name it is
impossible to do more than speculate at possible candidate births.
When the paper trail runs cold, as it appears to have done with our Angus family, then the next step available to the genealogist is DNA research. As genetic origins can only be tested on the Y-chromosome it requires a male test subject who has an unbroken male Angus ancestry within our family. Fortunately such a subject exists and he is willing to have his DNA tested. It is our hope that the results of his test will produce a match with a family with documented Scottish roots. This will be our best possible lead to determine the origin of our Angus family. We presently await the results of the test.

Lancaster comes from the Latin castrum ("camp") on the Lune River, thus "Lunecastrum". Lancaster Castle was built at the lowest crossing point of the River Lune, and was a key English fortification against the Scots in the many wars between England and Scotland. The county of Lancashire derives its name from "Lancaster Shire".
Lancaster was a major seaport, particularly in the 18th and 19th centuries, dealing largely with the import of coal from the big coalfields of West Lothian in Scotland, and to a lesser extent timber, to fuel the great industrial cotton towns of Lancashire and, particularly, Manchester, which was the heart of the industrial revolution. The coal boats went continually backwards and forward from Bo'ness/Carriden (the same town) and Alloa in Clackmannanshire on the Firth of Forth to Lancaster - obviously taking with them Scottish sailors from that area.
In the 18th and 19th centuries, coal, and the Industrial Revolution transformed the economy of Lancashire, rising to a golden age of industrial technology, only to crash in the Lancashire cotton famine of the early 1860s, which left families across the county destitute and forced into an existence of poverty. Much of the cotton for the Lancashire cotton mills came from the southern United States. The cotton industry in Lancashire was already in a state of over-production when the American Civil War broke out and cotton shipments from the USA ceased. Many of the cotton mills shut down. Widespread poverty ensued. Many people emigrated, while others moved to Yorkshire to work in the wool industry.
Throughout the 18th century, there was a huge influx of population as people abandoned agriculture for a new urban way of life in back-to-back terraced houses often provided for them by mill owners who wanted a workforce close at hand. The social consequences of this change were enormous. There was a great fear that so many people, concentrated so closely together for the first time in history, would give rise to anarchy and mob rule. The great public works of the day such as art galleries and parks often referred to as Victorian philanthropy frequently hid a more practical reason to civilize the mass of population and help maintain order.
Social conditions were deplorable. Healthcare as we understand it was non-existent. Open sewers were commonplace and disease was widespread. These conditions gave rise to much of the legislation we have today on public order, sanitation and building regulations.
This is Lancaster as our Angus family lived it.

William ANGUS/ANGHURST b: ABT 1700 in Scotland? William married on 13 APR 1724 in St. Mary, Lancaster, Lancashire, England to Mary LEAH, whose origins are unknown.
William Angus is the earliest identified ancestor of our Angus family. The earliest record we have for him is his marriage in 1724 in the parish of St. Mary, Lancaster, Lancashire, England, followed by the baptisms of his children beginning in 1724 in the chapelry of Over-Wyresdale which is located about 15 km south of Lancaster, but is within the bounds of the parish of St. Mary. Thus, it is most likely that William and Mary were residing in Over-Wyresdale when they were married in St. Mary, Lancaster.
We have no record of William's date or place of birth, however it is suggested that he was most likely born in Scotland and that he was the first of this family to reside in England.
Our Lancashire Anguses have now been traced back to the early 18th century family of William Angus and Mary Leah, whose children were baptized at Over-Wyresdale, a chapel within the bounds of the parish of Lancashire.
William and Mary represent the earliest known family of Anguses in the entire county of Lancashire. No earlier birth or marriage records for anyone of the surname Angus have so far been located within the Lancaster area. Thus this could be the earliest family of the surname Angus to have resided in Lancashire. No birth record has been found for William in Lancashire, nor anywhere in northern England either. As Angus is a Gaelic surname and as family tradition claims that our Anguses were originally Scottish, it is suggested that William may have been born in Scotland.
William Angus married Mary Leah on 13 APR 1724 in the parish of St. Mary, Lancaster, Lancashire, England. They had the following children:
Jane ANGUS b: ABT 15 NOV 1724 in Over Wyresdale, Lancaster, Lancashire,
England
Elisabeth ANGUS b: 1727 in Over Wyresdale, Lancaster, Lancashire,
England 
John ANGUS/ANGHURST b: ABT 08 FEB 1729/30 in Over Wyresdale, Lancaster,
Lancashire, England
Elen ANGUS b: ABT 03 MAR 1754 in Over Wyresdale, Lancaster, Lancashire,
England
Robert ANGUS b: ABT 25 MAY 1755 in Over Wyresdale, Lancaster, Lancashire,
England
William ANGUS b: ABT 13 AUG 1732 in Over Wyresdale, Lancaster,
Lancashire, England. William married on 22 APR 1754 in St. Mary, Lancaster,
Lancashire, England to Janet GREENAL b: ABT 1730 in England. They had the
following child:
William ANGUS b: ABT 02 MAY 1756 in Over Wyresdale, Lancaster, Lancashire,
England. William married a woman named Jane, whose surname is unknown. They
had the following child:
Peter ANGUS b: ABT 28 JUL 1781 in St. Mary, Lancaster, Lancashire, England
Margaret ANGUS/ANGHURST b: ABT 16 MAR 1735 in Over Wyresdale, Lancaster,
Lancashire, England. Margaret died in infancy.
Thomas ANGUS b: ABT 20 NOV 1737 in Over Wyresdale, Lancaster,
Lancashire, England. Thomas married Jane Bleazard. Thomas and his
descendants are presented below.The baptism records for the chapelry of Over Wyresdale begin in 1723. The earliest record of the name ANGUS in the parish record is the baptism of Jane Angus, daughter of William and Mary, in 1724. ALL but two Angus registrations in Over Wyresdale can be traced to this family. And these remaining two appear likely to belong to this family, but cannot be positively identified as yet. Thus this Angus family appears to have been the only family surnamed Angus within the bounds of the chapelry of Over Wyresdale.
The earliest transcribed records in St. Mary begin with marriages in 1760, burials in 1786 and baptisms in 1810
The earliest and only ANGUS (Anghurst) burial in Over Wyresdale is Margaret Anghurst, infant daughter of William and Mary, buried 1735 in Over Wyresdale. There are no other Angus burials in Over Wyresdale.
Thomas Angus moved from Over Wyresdale to Quernmore (approximately 10 km)
Thomas ANGUS b: ABT 20 NOV 1737 in Over Wyresdale, Lancaster, Lancashire, England as the son of William Angus and Mary Leah, shown above. At some point prior to the birth of his first child, Thomas moved from Over Wyresdale to Quernmore -- a distance of about 10 km. Thomas married on 25 MAY 1765 in the parish of Saint Mary, Lancaster, Lancashire, England to Jane BLEAZARD, b: ABT 04 SEP 1743 in Quernmore, Caton, Lancashire, England, as the daughter of Robert Bleazard. Over Wyresdale and Quernmore both lie within the bounds of St. Mary's parish, so it is not unexpected to find their marriage in the records of the parish seat, rather than the chapelry where they resided. The fact that Thomas' wife, Jane, lived in Quernmore may provide the reason for his move there. Thomas is described in parish records as being employed as a husbandman (someone who looks after animals). Thomas and Jane had the following children, shown below. Thomas and Jane are both buried in St. Paul's churchyard, Caton, Lancashire, England.
*NOTE: Where births below are shown to have taken place in "St. Mary, Lancaster" this means that the baptism is recorded in the parish of St. Mary and the birth occurred within the bounds of the parish, but the exact location in the parish is not known. It is most likely that all the first generation births took place in Quernmore in Caton.
Margaret ANGUS b: ABT 23 MAR 1766 in Quarmore, Lancaster, Lancashire, England.
Margaret's baptism is listed in the IGI. As her baptism is identical to Mary
Angus, it's not sure if she was a twin, or if "Mary" has been misread as "Marg."
by the transcriber.
Mary ANGUS b: ABT 23 MAR 1766 in St. Mary, Lancaster, Lancashire, England.
Mary may have had a twin sister, Margaret, shown above. However it is not
certain whether Margaret was a separate person or merely a transcription error
for Marg/Mary. It is believed that Mary had the following illegitimate son:
William ANGUS b: ABT 1 JAN 1786 in St. Mary, Lancaster, Lancashire, EnglandIt is believed that Mary Angus later married on 7 JUL 1792 in Saint Mary, Lancaster, Lancashire, England to William BRADLEY b: ABT 1765 in England. She is recorded as a spinster in Quarmore (Quenrmore), Lancaster, Lancashire, England and William was a widower. He may have had children from his previous marriage -- this have not been researched. The following children may be theirs:
Thomas ANGUS b: ABT 4 SEP 1768 in Lancaster, Lancashire, England.
Thomas is
presumed to have died prior to the birth of his same-named brother in 1771.
Thomas ANGUS b: ABT 11 AUG 1771 in Lancaster, Lancashire, England.
Thomas married on 18 MAY 1807 in Saint Mary, Lancaster, Lancashire,
England to Margaret JOHNSON. Margaret died young in 1813 leaving Thomas a
widower to raise his two surviving children. It appears that he never
remarried. Thomas died in 1845 having been predeceased by his wife and both
daughter. Thomas and Margaret had the following children:
Jane ANGUS b: ABT 15 NOV 1807 in St. Mary, Lancaster, Lancashire, England.
Jane died at age 32 and is buried in St. Mary's, Lancaster, Lancashire,
England. She appears to have been unmarried and without children.
Hannah ANGUS b: ABT 18 FEB 1810 in Caton, Lancaster, Lancashire, England.
Hannah died in infancy. Her baptism is recorded in St. Mary's parish in
February 1810 and her burial is recorded in St. Paul's, Caton, Lancashire,
England in October of the same year.
Thomas ANGUS b: ABT 8 SEP 1811 in Lancaster, Lancashire, England. It
is believed that he married ABT 1835 to Mary Ann b: 1818 in Keighley, Yorkshire, England.
Mary Ann's surname is unknown, however it might be Atkinson as her eldest
son is recorded as "Thomas Atkinson Angus" at his daughter's baptism.
However that entry is questionable. (See below). Thomas and Mary Ann resided at 177 Wood St., Lancaster Castle, Lancaster, Lancashire,
England. They have not been found in the 1841 census anywhere in England or
Scotland. Thomas is not found in 1881. Thomas and Mary Ann had the following children:
Thomas Atkinson ANGUS b: 1836 in Lancaster, Lancashire, England. Thomas is
found residing with his parents in 1851, but not in 1861. He is
believed to have married an unknown woman and had the following daughter
and then died prior to 1861.
Margaret Jane ANGUS b: BET 1838 AND 1841 in Lancaster, Lancashire,
England. Margaret is found residing with her parents in 1851, 1861 &
1871. She is believed to be the spinster Margaret Jane Angus
residing with her sister Mary Ann Angus in 1881.
Edward ANGUS b: ABT 1840 in Lancaster, Lancashire, England. Edward
is found residing with his parents in 1851, but not in 1861.

England to Margaret LIVER b: ABT 1852 in Lancaster, Lancashire, England.
They had the following children:
Dorothy ANGUS b: 06 MAY 1875 in Pitt Street, Lancaster, Lancashire,
England
William ANGUS b: 18 APR 1878 in 5 Pitt Street, Lancaster, Lancashire,
England. William married on 28 DEC 1898 in St. Anne, Lancaster,
Lancashire, England to Jane NICHOLSON b: 1879 in Lancaster, Lancashire,
England. They had the following child:
Dorothy ANGUS b: 30 MAY 1899 in 4 Mill Street, Lancaster, Lancashire,
England
John ANGUS b: 1849 in Lancaster, Lancashire, England. John is found
residing with his parents in 1851 and 1861. He is not found in 1871.
In 1881 he is believed to be the John Angus residing in St. Ann's Ward,
Lancaster, working as a foreman in a chemical works, shown as born 1849 in
Lancaster. If so, then he married in 1873 in Lancaster, Lancashire,
England to Agnes ELLWOOD. She was born ABT 1853 in Arkholme, Lancashire, England. They had the
following children:
Mary Ann ANGUS b: 1851 in Lancaster, Lancashire, England. Mary Ann
is believed to have never married. She is found residing with her
parents in 1861 & 1871. It is believed that she is the Mary Ann
Angus residing with her sister Margaret Jane Angus in 1881.
Robert Walter ANGUS b: 1855 in Lonsdale, Lancaster, Lancashire, England.
He is found residing with his parents in 1861 & 1871. He is believed
to be the Robert W. Angus residing next door to his brother Joseph Angus
in 1881. Robert married on 10 JUN 1878 in Lancaster, Lancashire,
England to Mary Ann WIGNALL b: ABT 1856 in Lancaster,
Lancashire, England. No children have been found for this couple.

Mary Ann ANGUS b: 12 SEP 1880 in Grasmere Road, Lancaster, Lancashire,
England
Alice Maud ANGUS b: 08 SEP 1882 in Grasmere Road, Lancaster, Lancashire,
England
William ANGUS/ANGIOUS b: ABT 30 MAY 1773 in Lancaster, Lancashire, England married Ann. Their story continues below.
Eliner ANGUS ABT 11 JUN 1775 in St. Mary, Lancaster, Lancashire,
England. Eliner's baptism is indexed in the IGI as "Eliner ANUS, bap 11 JUN
1775, daughter of Thomas ANUS."
Betty ANGUS b: ABT 3 AUG 1777 in Lancaster, Lancashire, England is believed to
have had the following illegitimate son:
Thomas ANGUS b: 23 APR 1811 in St. Mary, Lancaster, Lancashire, England.
Thomas died at age 2 in Caton, Lancashire, England.
John ANGUS, ABT 04 APR 1779 in St. Mary, Lancaster, Lancashire,
England. John's baptism is listed in the IGI as "John Angions, bap 4 APR
1779 in St. Mary, Lancaster, Lancashire, England, as the son of Thomas and
Jane Angions." In 1841 John was residing in the West Derby Hundred of
Lancaster, Lancashire, England with his daughters Betsy and Mary. In 1851 John
was residing at #72 Castle Hill, Lancaster, Lancashire, England as a widower
with his daughters Betsy and Mary. His birth place is given as Lancashire and
he was employed as a husbandman. John Angus and his family are
recorded in the St. Mary's Priory Church Monumental Inscriptions: Grave 264,
John Angus died 2nd August 1857 aged 80; Mary his wife, died 18th February
1834 aged 49; also their children, Thomas died March 1825 aged 17; Jane died
March 1825 aged 11; Ellen died April 1826 aged 3; William died Dec. 1832 aged
29; John died April 1837 aged 21; David died...[illeg]...aged 36. In 1813 John
is recorded at his daughter Jane's baptism as a husbandman residing in
Lancaster. In 1817 John is recorded at his son David's baptism as a labourer
residing in Lancaster. John married on 31 DEC 1807 in St. Mary's, Lancaster,
Lancashire, England to Mary SHAW, b 1785. Mary died in 1834, prior to the
first census, so her place of birth is unknown. John's surname is recorded as
"Angious" at his wedding. John and Mary had the following children:
William ANGUS b: 1803. No record has been found of William's
baptism. The location of his birth is unknown. According to the family
gravestone William was born 4 years prior to his parents' marriage. It's
possible he may have been from a previous relationship. William is buried with
his parents in St. Mary's churchyard, Lancaster, Lancashire, England. He died
at age 29, presumably unmarried and without any known children.
Thomas ANGUS b: 1809. No record has been found of Thomas'
baptism. The location of his birth is unknown. According to the family
gravestone, Thomas was born in 1809 and died at age 16. Thomas is buried with
his parents in St. Mary's churchyard, Lancaster, Lancashire, England.
Elizabeth Angus was baptised in Anwoth, Kirkcubright, Scotland while the
rest of her family was baptised in Lancaster.
Elizabeth ANGUS b: ABT 14 FEB 1810 in Anwoth, Kirkcudbright, Scotland.
Betsey/Elizabeth ANGUS, bap 14 FEB 1810 in Anwoth,
Kirkcudbright, Scotland, as the daughter of John Angus and Mary Shaw. Betsy's
is the only baptism found from this family outside of Lancaster. Census
records confirm she was born in Scotland. All of her siblings except David and
Mary Ann died prior to the first census so their birth locations cannot be
confirmed by census, however, all but William and Thomas are found in St.
Mary's parish, Lancaster, Lancashire, England. Betsy's is the only Angus
baptism in the parish of Kirkcudbright between 1727-1820. However the name
Angus is found in small numbers elsewhere in Kirkcudbrightshire. In 1841
Elizabeth was residing with her widowed father and sister Mary Ann. In 1851
Elizabeth was residing with her widowed father and sister, Mary Ann. In 1861 &
1871 she was residing with her sister Mary Ann in St. Mary's parish,
Lancaster, Lancashire, England. Her birth place is given in 1841 as
Lancashire, 1851 as Scotland, 1861 as Heathan, Scotland. The 1861 census index
at Ancestry lists an alternative name for her as "Elizabeth Jackson" with no
reference. It may indicate that at some point she married a Jackson.
Jane ANGUS b: 21 MAR 1813 in St. Mary, Lancaster, Lancashire, England. Jane
died in infancy.
John ANGUS b: 21 MAY 1815 in St. Mary, Lancaster, Lancashire, England.
John died young without marrying.
David ANGUS b: 12 SEP 1817 in St. Mary, Lancaster, Lancashire, England.
In 1841 David Angus was residing in Mount Pleasant, Liverpool,
Lancashire, England employed as a male servant. His birth is given as 1817 in
Scotland, however his baptism is recorded in St. Mary's parish, Lancaster,
Lancashire, England. In 1851 David was residing in Everton, Lancashire,
England with his wife Mary. He was employed as a warehouseman. They show no
children. The family gravestone indicates that David died at age 36 (which
would be 1854) but his date of death is illegible. David his presumed to
have married MARY b: 1818 in Gallowyshe, Gerthon, Ireland. No record of
their marriage has been found. Her surname is unknown.
Mary Ann ANGUS b: 03 FEB 1820 in St. Mary, Lancaster, Lancashire, England.
In 1851 Mary Ann was living with her widowed father and
spinster sister, Elizabeth, in Castle, Lancaster, Lancashire, England. In 1861
& 1871 she was still living with Elizabeth. Mary Ann was 52 when she married
on 20 MAR 1874 in St. Mary, Lancaster, Lancashire, England to John Walker
FAYRER b: 1822 in Lancaster, Lancashire, England, son of James Fayrer. Census
records show John's name as John W. Fayrer while the marriage register shows
his name as James Walker Fayrer, son of James Fayrer. It would appear that the
marriage record mistakenly put his father's name in. Mary Ann and John had no
children.
Eleanor ANGUS b: 23 MAR 1823 in St. Mary, Lancaster, Lancashire, England
James ANGUS b: ABT 22 JUN 1783 in Lancaster, Lancashire, England about whom
nothing more is known. James died in 1810 at age 26 and is
believed to have not married nor had any children. His occupation is unknown.

William ANGUS/ANGIOUS b: ABT 30 MAY 1773 in Lancaster, Lancashire, England as a son of Thomas Angus and Jane Bleazard, shown above. St. Mary's parish records frequently show William's surname spelled ANGIOUS (along with most other members of this family). William Angus married on 23 NOV 1805 in St. Luke, Lowick, Lancashire, England to Ann THRELKELD b: 1782 in England. William was employed as a husbandman at the time of their marriage. William moved to Skerton in Lancaster on the north side of the river. (See map.)
Our William and Ann had the following children:
Thomas ANGUS b: 31 OCT 1807 in St. Mary, Lancaster, Lancashire, England about
whom nothing is known.
James ANGUS b: 1 NOV 1810 in Skerton, Lancaster, Lancashire, England.
Information on James Angus and his descendants is presented below.
Alice ANGUS? b 1811. residing in West Derby Hundred of
Lancaster, which is the same district that the preceding James Angus was
living in in 1841, buried in St. Mary, Lancaster.After the premature death of William's first wife, Ann, he married secondly on 17 APR 1829 in St. Mary, Lancaster, Lancashire, England to Jane PRICE b: 1778 in England. They had no known children.
James ANGUS/ANGIOUS was born 1 NOV 1810 in Skerton, Lancashire, England as the son of William and Ann Angus (shown above). James worked as a sawyer. He married on 21 SEP 1828 in Cockerham, Lancashire, England to Jane PRESTON. Cockerham is located north of the city of Lancaster. In 1841 and 1851 James was residing at #4 Palisades in Lancaster with his wife and children, and employed as a sawyer. His place of birth is given in 1851 as Skerton, Lancashire. In 1861 James was residing at Ovenhouse Yard (near 40 Bridge Lane) in Castle, Lancaster, Lancashire, England, as a sawyer, with his wife, son James, and granddaughter, Mary J Sharples, b 1856 in Preston, Lancashire. Jane is shown in the 1881 census at age 74 as a widowed pauper living in a union workhouse, working as a cotton weaver. James Angus and Jane Preston had the following children:
Ann ANGUS b: 1830 in Lancaster, Lancashire, England. Ann married
in 1851 in St. Mary's, Lancaster, Lancashire, England to John PEEL b: 1827 in
Quernmore, Lancashire, England. They had the following children:

John ANGUS/ANGIOUS b: 25 AUG 1831 in St. Mary, Lancaster, Lancashire,
England. John followed in his father's trade as a sawyer. He married
ABT 1855 in Lancashire, England to Sarah ROBERTS. Their story continues below.
Jane ANGUS b: 10 APR 1834 in St. Mary, Lancaster, Lancashire, England. Jane married
on 7 APR 1855 in St. John, Preston, Lancashire, England to John SHARPLES, b:
1835 in Preston, Lancashire, England. Family data for Jane is
uncertain. It is known that Jane married on 7 APR 1855 to John Sharples and
had a daughter, Mary Jane, three months later, as shown here, and that Mary
Jane was residing with her maternal grandparents, James and Jane Angus in 1861
and 1871. The difficulty is that there may have been more than one couple
named John and Jane Sharples living in the area of Preston and Blackburn and
both were about the same age. Thus it is difficult to be certain which
children and which census records apply to which couple, or if they are the
same family. The birth of Hannah in 1859 in Preston almost certainly belongs
to this same couple. However the subsequent births in Blackburn may belong to
a different couple with the same name. If so, then this John and Jane
disappear from census records before 1861 and may have died, to be followed by
a different couple with the same names, and approximately the same ages, in
Blackburn in 1861-1881. One or the other of these couples (unless they are the
same) later ended up in Dundas, Wentworth, Ontario, Canada.
Margaret ANGUS b: 06 FEB 1836 in St. Mary, Lancaster, Lancashire,
England. Margaret died at the age of 2 months.
William ANGUS b: 04 MAY 1837 in St. Mary, Lancaster, Lancashire,

1838 in Ingleton, Yorkshire, England.
William and Margaret had the following children:
Mary Jane ANGUS b: 1862 in Lancaster, Lancashire, England. In 1881 Mary
Jane and her sister Rose Ann are found living with the family of John and Mary
Ann Rigg. They are recorded as nieces, but it is not known by which side of
the family.
Rose Ann ANGUS b: 03 FEB 1863 in Bridge Lane, Castle, Lancaster, Lancashire,
England. See
entry for sister, Mary Jane, above.
James ANGUS b: 04 DEC 1864 in Bridge Lane, Castle, Lancaster, Lancashire,

Nora CROSSFIELD b: 1896 in Halton, Lancashire, England.
Thomas ANGUS b: 1900 in Halton, Lancashire, England
Elizabeth ANGUS b: ABT 5 OCT 1870 in
Fifeshire, Scotland. It is very interesting to note that census
records are consistent in recording that Elizabeth was born in Fife, Scotland,
however the IGI shows her baptism on 5 OCT 1870 in St. Mary's, Lancaster,
Lancashire, England. She married John STOCKDALE b: 1870 in Halton,
Lancashire, England. They had the following children:
William STOCKDALE b: 1892 in Halton, Lancashire, England
Richard STOCKDALE b: 1893 in Halton, Lancashire, England

Eric ANGUS b: 1900 in Halton, Lancashire, England
Margaret Miriam ANGUS b: 20 FEB 1874 in Bridge Lane, Lancaster, Lancashire,

OCT 1841 and is buried in St. Mary, Lancaster.
Edward ANGUS b: 1843 in Lancaster, Lancashire, England for whom no
birth record exists. He is presumed to be of this family. He
worked as a chemist and ink maker. Edward is believed to have married
twice, firstly to a woman named Ruth, whose maiden name is unknown, and by
whom he had one child. Or this first marriage and child could be for the
Edward Angus b 1840 son of Thomas Angus shown above.
Jane ANGUS b: 18 JUN 1868 in Britania Street, Lancaster, Lancashire, England.
She is not found in 1871 and is presumed to have died in childhood.Edward is believed to have married secondly BET 1868-1871 to Mary Ann whose maiden name is unknown. She was b: 1842 in Scotforth, Lancashire, England. They had the following children:
Ann ANGUS b: 26 MAY 1872 in Moor Lane, Lancaster, Lancashire, England.
Edward ANGUS b: 06 JUL 1873 in Moor Lane, Lancaster, Lancashire, England. He worked as a
cabinet furniture draughstman and was unmarried by 1901.
Isabella ANGUS b: 09 JUL 1875 in Grasmere Road, Lancaster, Lancashire,
England.John ANGUS/ANGIOUS was born 25 AUG 1831 in St. Mary, Lancaster, Lancashire, England as the son of James Angus and Jane Preston (shown above). His baptism is recorded under the name "John Angious." John married on 23 JUN 1855 St Mary, Lancaster, Lancashire, England to Sarah ROBERTS. Sarah was born ABT 11 AUG 1833 in Lancaster, Lancashire, England as the daughter of Thomas and Mary Roberts also of Lancaster, Lancashire. Like his father and grandfather before him, John worked as a sawyer in the industrial city of Lancaster, Lancashire. John and Sarah had twelve children most of whom went into similar fields of industrial employment, either in the lumber, steel, or cotton industries.
Sarah Roberts had the following son from a previous relationship:
The children of John Angus and Sarah Roberts were:
Mary Magdalen ANGUS b: b: 24 APR 1856 in Leonard Gate, Castle,
Lancaster, Lancashire, England.
She worked as a cotton weaver. Mary had the following illegitimate child
by an unknown man:Mary Magdalen Angus is believed to have married ABT JUN 1882 in Preston, Lancashire, England to John BATEMAN, however this marriage is unverified. Mary is not found in the 1891/1901 census for England so it is assumed that she either died or emigrated.
Jane Ann ANGUS b: 28 NOV 1858 in Bridge Lane, Castle, Lancaster, Lancashire, England.
She married ABT MAR 1878 in Lancaster, Lancashire, England to Frederick LAMB
b: 1858 in Lancaster, Lancashire, England. In 1891 Jane Ann
along with her husband and children are shown living in the same household as
Jane Ann's parents. In 1901 they are living next door to Jane Ann's parents.
Prior to her marriage she worked as a silk spinner. Her husband, Frederick
Lamb, worked as a painter. They had the following children:
Sarah Ann Lamb ANGUS, b: 4 NOV 1877 in St Mary, Lancaster,
Lancashire, England. Sarah was born four months prior to
her parents' marriage. Her birth is recorded as an illegitimate daughter of
Jane Ann Angus with no father's name given. However the fact that she was
given "Lamb" as a middle name, plus the fact that her mother married Frederick
Lamb only four months later would strongly suggest that Frederick was the
father.
Mary Agnes LAMB b: 6 OCT 1878 at 4 Lune St., Skerton, Lancaster, Lancashire, England.
Mary married about 1910 to her first cousin, Richard WILKINSON, b 1882 in

The
Angus Family in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada%20-%20Copy.jpg)
Thomas Robert ANGUS was born 11 NOV 1875 in St. George's Quay, Castle, Lancaster, Lancashire, England as a son of John Angus and Sarah Roberts (shown above). He went by "Robert". He married ABT JUN 1895 in Lancaster, Lancashire, England to Judith DOBSON. She was born ABT 22 OCT 1876 in Lancaster, Lancashire, England as the daughter of John Preston Dobson and Alice Wilkinson. Their information can be found on the Dobson Family Page.. Robert immigrated about 1919 to Hamilton, Ontario, Canada with his wife and adult children. It is not known why the family moved from Lancaster to Hamilton, but it is likely that it was with hopes of better prospects for industrial employment. All three of the Angus children married and settled in the Hamilton area however their descendants have since lost contact with each other. Judith died young, so her living grandchildren have very little memory of her. Thomas was the fourth consecutive generation of his family to work as a sawyer. What is known of "Robert" Angus and Judith Dobson had three children:
Thomas Wilkinson ANGUS b: 13 NOV 1895 in Norfolk Street, Skerton, Lancashire, England who immigrated to
Canada with his birth family where he married Rose ALLAN. Thomas
served as a Corporal in the 120th Battalion for the Canadian Forces in WWI.
He died at age 33 from pneumonia. Thomas and Rose had no children.
John "Jack" ANGUS b: 19 MAY 1898 in Norfolk Street, Skerton, Lancaster, Lancashire, England whose story
continues below. Jack immigrated with his birth family to Hamilton,
Ontario, Canada. He married on 18 MAR 1921 in Hamilton, Wentworth,
Ontario to Jessie Brown DUNCAN. Their descendants are presented
below.
Ethel May ANGUS b: MAY 1900 in 73 Norfolk Street, Skerton, Lancashire, England who immigrated to
Canada with her birth family (see below) where she married Sydney PAPPIN, Sr.
and had children.

These last two illegitimate baptisms represent the latest records of anyone surnamed ANGUS in the chapelry of Over Wyresdale, which records continue well into the 19th century. This would indicate that our Angus family had moved away from Over Wyresdale by the mid-late 18th century. After this point the family appears in the register of the chapelry of Quernmore in Caton. St. Mary in the city of Lancaster, so it would appear they moved into the city of Lancaster by the mid-late 18th century.
There are two dozen potential matches for Scottish births for William. Noteworthy among these are the following:
Whether either of these is our William will have to be determined by future research. However they do represent two of many plausible explanations for the arrival of our Angus family into Lancashire.

For more information on
any individual person featured on this page,
please:
1. click on the INDEX button below,
2. then select the first letter of the surname you are looking for.
The index button will take you to my searchable GEDCOM database hosted by RootsWeb's World Connect Project. This allows you to download my GEDCOM in 10-generation chunks. Then you can import my data directly into your own genealogy program without having to retype it.
ABT = "about" and is used in three ways:
Where it precedes a precise date of birth, such as "ABT 3 DEC 1855", then it means that the person was baptized on 3 DEC 1795, but his/her exact date of birth is unknown.
Where it precedes a semi-precise date of birth with the month only given, such as "ABT DEC 1855", then that means that the birth is recorded in the civil birth registrations for the quarter ending with that month. Thus the person's birth was registered sometime between the beginning of October 1855 and the end of December 1855, but no baptism record has been found nor any more precise birth record.
Where it precedes a year only, such as "ABT 1855", then it means that there is no information on the person's birth date at all and an educated guess has been made that he/she was probably born sometime around 1855.
