======================================================
The previous pages have told the story of the diaspora of the children and grandchildren of John Harland (1854) of Bessbrook in County Armagh, Northern Ireland. Despite being scattered right round the world this sept has kept in touch.
John Harland’s first four sons each married a girl for a different continent.
Tom Harland (1881) did not have any grandchildren. So the next generation following on is:-
Willie Harland had one grandchild born and living near Melbourne Australia - Pamela Harland (1946)
Jack Harland (1885) had one grandchild born and living in Atlanta Georgia - Margaret Conant (1955)
Wallace Harland’s (1888) story is more complicated.
In 2004,
his eldest son John (1923) lives in Kelowna, British Columbia Canada.
