About Capt James Irving

https://inarratives.islandarchives.ca/node/447

James (Irving) came to PEI with his parents and his brother William from Dumfieshire, Scotland in 1775.17. He became a ships captain, and married Elizabeth Creed in 1801; they had four boys (two of whom died young).18. The Irvings were known locally for hosting religious services in their home, and Reverend James McGregor called James a “Dumfriesshire Presbyterian”.10. James Irving eventually came to a sad end when he was robbed and murdered in Halifax in 1829. One of their surviving sons was a sea captain (Captain George), and one of his three children went on to become a captain as well.19. They have many descendants (some still on the water)in both Murray Harbour and Murray Harbour North.
