| Message | Hi, I visit the Canadian Island of Newfoundland every year. Last year a local approached me and asked if I knew anything about the Monmouth Rebellion. It would appear that his forefather was a Peddle and was invloved , he ended up in Newfoundland and helped fight off a French invasion at Carbonear 1690 ish. I am trying to trace this person and establish how he got to NFLD, he may have beeen one of those transported as a white slave and then went rum running to Nfld , jumped ship and stayed.Any advice direction you could give would make an old man in NFLD called Cable Peddle very happy. Best regards , Colin Harris, West Yorkshire, originally Scotland. |
