Give us the date of birth (or as close as you can) for the children. The LDS film or the site Scotland's People will have the record of the baptisms and likely Isabella's maiden name. If you go to Familysearch.org you can likely find them yourself. But some kind soul will help. Just snooped for a minute and came up empty......will try later.

My 4th great-grandfather, William Ogilvie, came to Nova Scotia about 1787. I have a copy of his petition for land from the government in that year. I do not know what ship he and his family came on or the port from which they left. William was born circa 1745 - 1748. He was married to Isabella. I have no maiden name for her and I understand Isabella could be a nick-name for Elizabeth or Elsbeth. William and Isabella came to Nova Scotia with children who were baptized in Monquhitter Parish. I would dearly love to find out more background on this couple and would especially like to determine Isabella's maiden name. Any help or suggestions would be most appreciated. Thanks in advance.
