Descendants of Loyalists Robert & Catherine Carlisle, Part 5: Great Grandchildren Through Robert Jr.

Documenting the great grandchildren of Loyalists Robert and Catherine Carlisle is important because so many pieces of their family story are scattered across both Canada and the United States.

Through the years, many distant cousins have contacted me and I hope that some of the Carlisle clan will do the same. 🙂
