From 'Scotch Valley History' - Janet went to USA with Aunt Jennet Gregg[P1569] to Scotch Valley in 1875. Janet married [P1595]John Kelly(first cousins) in Kansas USA. We believe Janet's brother JOHN twice went to visited her in USA.
Jeff Higgins - June 2004:
Child 5.Janet Gregg, born 08 Aug 1855 at Dalreoch, Colmonell and according to the birth entry she was the 5th child, 2 boys and 3 girls living. Janet lived with her parents until she emigrated.
At Ellis Island website and found the following...
John Greig, 56, arrived in New York aboard the "Caledonia" on 07 Jul 1907, he was on his way to see his sister Mrs Janet Kelly in Seneca. He was a shepherd and lived in Pinwherry, Ayrshire.
John Greig, 62, arrived in New York again aboard the Caledonia (superstitious perhaps) on 14 Apr 1913, he was on his way to see his sister Mrs Janet Kelly in Seneca. He was a shepherd and he gave his brother Ivan Gregg, in Ballantrae, as a contact.
These seem to be the only TWO occasions that John visited
