NotesIn 1886, William Black, 2, arrived at Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada, in a group of 21 children accompanied by Miss Stirling, from Edinburgh, Scotland.

In the book Our Children in Old Scotland and Nova Scotia By E. M. Stirling, note is made of William. At the age of two he was the youngest child brought this voyage.

"The youngest of the party, a fat, good-natured baby of two years, seemed to enjoy the whole thing as well as anyone."
