"The Wrights of Bedeque..A Loyalist Family" Doris Haslan

7) James Renwick, called Ren; m. Lottie Trenholm

Note: "Ren" has always been referred to as William Renwick. It has never really been settled as to whether his name was James, William or both (SB Note)

SB Note: In later info on the Spence family the infant that died was referred to as William. It is possible that when the Book "The Wrights of Bedeque" was written, that the two were confused and the infant was really James, not William. When William and Lottie and their family travelled to the west (early 1900's) all contact with the relatives in the East was eventually lost and not regained until connection was made through the internet in 1997.

James Renwick Spence, called Ren was born in Spence Settlement, N. B. and died in Alberta. He married Lottie Trenholm. (Ren died in Ewings Landing, B. C. SB)
