- ROBERT GALBRAITH, THE OTHER SON OF JOHN OF IRELAND
"Robert and James Galbraith, sons of John Galbraith of Ireland, came to the New World in 1718. Both Robert and James settled in areas that are now part of the metropolitan area of Harrisburg, Pa. In most research Robert and his descendants have been confused with the descendants of the better known brother, James. For years children historian William H. Egle's book PENNSYLVANIA GENEALOGIES has been the most accepted authority on the Galbraiths; however, his research is riddled with errors. Researchers have spent manyyears doing research to straighten out all the misidentification of the Pennsylvania Galbraiths. In the last issue of The RedTower I presented a sketch of James Galbraith and his descendants that I extracted from Jean Harriger's articles in earlier issues of The RedTower. The following is a sketch of Robert Galbraith and his descendants from the same source." (Source - Editor, The Red Tower, Volume XXI, No. 3, March 2000) (Details posted to Family Tree Maker by J.P.
