But I have found a great website www.novascotiagenealogy.com that has a record of your two ancestor's marriage in 1873 in River John. You can also email me at tvmac1262@yahoo.com.

The CAPE BRETON GENEALOGY & HISTORICAL ASSOCIATION is pleased to advise that CBGHA member Thom McCabe has completed the digitizing of the CAPE BRETON COUNTY MARRIAGE RECORDS for the 1890's. A great deal of time and effort were required to produce such a project and we offer our thanks to Thom for a job well done. Most records contain information on the bride and groom; where they lived, where they were born, how they were employed; there may also be information on the parents of the bride and groom. Marriage records can be a great source of information. The records contain several types of documents such as: slips, bonds, licenses, banns or affidavits. A number of the original records were incorrectly filed by year and incorrectly named; we have corrected these problems where possible. Some of the original records have incomplete dates and we filed them in what we considered to be the most appropriate area. We did not change any of the actual records. We have separated the records in files by years and then sorted them alphabetically. These records are copies of the original records and some are in poor condition and difficult to read. We found a few records from counties already completed and have placed them in a Strays file. We do not wish to convey the idea that there were no other marriages performed in Cape Breton County at this time; these are the records that were recorded with the Nova Scotia Government. Every reasonable effort was made to make these records as accurate as possible but there is a possibility of human error in all projects. Our file names on the records are: Last name of groom, last names of bride, date of document. . As with our previous DVDs, this new material can be searched by husband's surname or wife's maiden name or date with the Windows search function or you may choose to simply scroll through the records. You can choose to search by year by year or the whole DVD. We also recommend scrolling slowing through the records, you may find many interesting facts you were not expecting. We are confident that people using these records will find them informative and helpful in their genealogy research of Cape Breton County The Cape Breton County Marriage 1890's DVD contains 3335 entries; by comparison Inverness County Marriages DVD, 1862 to 1908 contains 2269 entries - Richmond County Marriages, DVD, 1849 to 1918 contains 2674 entries - Victoria County Marriages DVD, 1864 to 1918 contains 2120 entries. As you can see there were many more marriages in this one decade of the 1890's than occurred in the other counties for a much longer period of time. This DVD is priced at $25.00 including postage & handling. The DVD can be ordered by snail mail by sending your order to CBGHA, 120 Braemar Dr, Sydney, Nova Scotia, B1R 1V9 BE SURE TO INDICATE WHICH DVD YOU ARE ORDERING ORDERS ARE MAILED WITHIN 24 HOURS

This building is still in Riverton, outside of Stellarton. It is now called Riverview Home and is home to challenged adults. When I was young, my mother used to take the Brownies and Guides there every Christmas to entertain the residents. We always had a Candlelight Service at church, so we would do all the singing parts as well as carolling, and of course brought them all Christmas presents and lunch. It certainly taught us to appreciate how fortunate we all were, and to learn to have empathy for those not as fortunate in life.My mom told me when she was in nurse's training at the Aberdeen Hospital School of Nursing(she graduated in 1940) they did their Psychiatric Training part at the home in Riverton.

Hi Rick, Thanks for the update on Mary Hamilton who seems to be an aunt of mine and who I knew very little about. She is the daughter of Robert Hamilton born NS in 1801 and of Ellen J. Turnbull also born NS in 1801. Thanks for sharing and adding some additional texture to the family fabric. I will try to follow this lead and see if there is some further details available.
