      Also from www.angelfire.com/folk/modeland - follow link re origin of Modelands
      The first known ancestor of the Modeland family is John, who appears in the records of St John's Church in Garrigill in 1762 with the recording of his Banns and marriage. As mentioned previously, this was also the first occurrence of "Modeland." On 16 October 1762, John Modeland of the parish of Hadon and Sarah Pearson of Garrigill were married by Banns. Sarah had been born at Tynehead in Garrigill in 1740, the daughter of Thomas Pearson and Elizabeth Archer. John and Sarah had eight children, six sons and two daughters, of whom three sons and two daughters survived childhood. John was a miner and the family resided near various mines, as recorded by their children's baptisms, though most frequently at Tynehead, where they lived from 1763 through 1774, except for 1765 when they were recorded at Hole. In 1777 they were living at Eshgill, and at Eshgillside from 1780 until John's death in 1784. He was buried in Garrigill churchyard on 7 March 1784. Like most miners he died young, presumably in his forties. He left his widow to raise their six children, who ranged from 2 to 19 years in age. The eldest, Thomas, a miner, probably
      supported the family until his marriage 15 years later to Elizabeth Hall. Thomas and Elizabeth had four daughters, of whom only two survived. Sadly, Thomas died in 1804 aged 39, when his daughters were only 3 and 1. The second eldest son of John and Sarah, John, married Mary Waugh of Garrigill in 1792.These two are the ancestors of the Canadian Modeland family. The third surviving son, Joshua, married Mary Vipond in 1806 and had three daughters. It appears all the male Modeland family members emigrated by 1828.
