The Fergusson of Charles County Maryland are of interest because they
appear to be related to the Fergusson of Craigdarroch. Hence I have
begun to compile data on the former;

We need help with the following;
1. Check Heritage Quest for missing census entries that I have extracted
from Ancestry.

2. Figure out how it is that Morris Ferguson found that John FERGUSSON
was born Jan 18, 1773, Dumfriesshire. If this is correct then, according
to the old parish registers of Scotland, John is the son of William
FERGUSSON and Jean CUNINGHAM of Glencairn, Dumfriesshire. Morris cites
references and if we an figure out which one applies then we need to
know source used by the original author. See Morris' messaage:

3. Find the obituary or death reoord of Austin FERGUSON, b. 30 Aug
1900, d. Apr 1971, Westminster, Carroll, MD. Hopefully this will lead to
a living FERGUSON of this line whom we can recruit to the project.
