JAMES DALE, BROTHER OF JOHN DALE OF ENGLAND

As James Dale ,is a brother to my ancestor, John Dale, I am so glad to present his
family tree here. I have looked for many years for this brother of John. They also had a sister,
Martha Dale who came to America and married John McKnight and settled in Pennsylvania
before her brothers came over. James is known to have brought at least one of his sons, John,
with him, I do not know about James wife, or if there were more children.
