Coloring Book History for James Wanlass (1825)


A coloring story book for the descendant children of James Wanlass (1825-1895) is now available online (see link below). It was created for the 2008 J. Wanless Southwick family reunion.

The last page is a table showing James Wanlass's family, including which of his children stayed in Scotland, which died in infancy, and which emigrated from Scotland to America with him and his wife, Margaret Neilson. James Wanlass had about 77 grandchildren born in the 19th Century, so he must have many thousands of descendants now. We hope this coloring book will help them get to know him. We also need them to do research to help solve the mystery of James Wanlass’s ancestry. Please share your ideas and comments through this blog.

The 16 page coloring book is a PDF document (0.69 MB) available at
