The Kirkups: Pioneers & Travellers

By Helen Kirkup

From 1840 through the early 1900s, many Kirkup family members left the Border areas of Scotland and England to begin new lives in Canada, the United States and Australia.They were farmers, miners, blacksmiths and ironworkers, husbands and wives with their children, or alone in a new world. Many were successful, and have large families of descendants around the world. Most never saw their families again.In an attempt to connect the travelling families back to their origins, and those they left behind, this book contains some of the Kirkup stories; who they were, where they went, and how they lived.
