A detailed history of the Scotland-Ontario-Oregon Watt family. John Watt (b. 1799, Sterling, Scotland) and his wife Margarete McGibbon Brymner/Bremner (b. 1804, Sterling, Scotland) moved to Sarnia, Ontario, Canada in 1830. After 1888, several of their children settled in Oregon (lots of activity in Tillamook and Portland) in the Pacific Northwest. A detailed and well-researched account describing the lives of this family, supplemented with birth-marriage-death type details.

Inscribed by Margaret Watt Edwards (1905-2000), daughter of George Watt, co-creator of Five Watt Brothers, and who in 1973 contributed several chapters and edited Land of the Multnomahs: Sketches and Stories of Early Oregon.
