Hi Bruce, I am basically trying to research the following: My 2nd gg; Alexander Grant, b. abt 1834, East River, Pictou, NS, marr. 30 Dec 1856 to Nancy/Annie Ross, and died 24 Oct 1881, at Sunnybrae, Pictou. My 3rd gg; Robert Grant, chr. 9 Jul 1797 at Glen Urquhart, Inverness, Scotland, marr. 29 Jul 1824 at Pictou to Mary McDonald. He died bef 171 at Sunnybrae, I believe. Mary died about 1883. My 4th gg: John Grant, b. 1750/1770 at Glen Urquhart, marrying abt 1770/1789 to Margaret McIntosh. He died about 1826 at Sunnybrae. My 5th gg; James Grant, b. abt 1725 at Glen Urquhart, marrying Janet Grant on 13 Feb 1755 Inverness, Scotland. I believe they lived at Millstream, Pictou, NS. My suggested 6th gg: Iain (John) Grant, b. abt 1705 of Glen Urquhart, Inverness, Scotland (Loch Meikle, Sct.) I don't know who his wife was, but do believe he had 3 children: James, my 5th gg, Alpin, b. 15 mar 1740, chr 16 Mar 1740, Meikle, Inverness, Sct., possibly died about 1828, of East River, Pictou, NS. Also, a possible daughter Mary. Not sure if all the above is correct, would appreciate corrections and advice. Will be glad to share what I have. Thanks for your reply. Suzie, of Shelton, Washington

Which one of us do you mean. I am researching Pictou County Haymans who came in approximately 1849 and others are researching Haymans who ended up in Pictou County but were known as the Colchester Haymans and their William came much earlier after receiving a land grant for serving in the War of Independence (I believe).

Thank you so much. That is what I suspected, from what I had been finding. Now I can look further, with that in mind. Suzie

Looking at the Nova Scotia Historical Vital Statistics Online site --- I found Alice Elizabeth Dalton's death certificate (listed under O'Brien) --- noting her husband as Corneilus O'Brien, her father as John Dalton (b. Arisaig, NS), and her mother as Mary Mac ???hern (unable to read the first several letters of the last name) (b. Arisaig, NS). Can anyone help me with the parents, siblings, and children of John Dalton and also the correct last name for Mary? Sure appreciate --- thanks.

Hello Good People, Has anyone proved that the father of James Grant, b. abt 1725, Hector ship immigrant to Pictou, Nova Scotia, is IAIN GRANT, married to MARY CATHERINE GRANT of Inverness, Scotland? I ask because I can find no records anywhere on the internet of one Iain Grant in Inverness. I DID, however, find that three of his children are in Inverness Christening records as being children of JOHN GRANT. ALPIN GRANT, chr. 16 Mar 1740, father: John PETER GRANT, chr. 19 May 1745, parents: John and Cathrine MARY GRANT, chr. 29 Apr 1750, parents: John and Mary Cath. I have never before seen the name IAIN, and was wondering if it was a proper first name, or has it been misspelled or? Suggestions, info, or ideas greatly appreciated!! Thanks, Suzie in Washington state

I have a son of James and Harriett Fraser who moved to Brady’s Bend, PA around 1870 to work in the mines. His name was James, and he married my gr-grandfather’s sister Sarah Blackwood. Do you have more information on this family that you would be willing to share?

Bill - Thank you so much for this website and info! This has been a dead end for me for a long time! I found a C.F. Fraser listed as General Superintendant for the Logan Coal company in 1901 and I found their wedding registration from 1886 but that was it. I don't have any info on the Frasers - sorry - for years we thought Mary had married William Fraser, and only when I found the marriage registration did I discover it was Christopher and it also had Christophers parents listed. If I happen across anything else regarding the Frasers, I will be sure to pass it along to you. Again, many thanks!! (Mary would be my great grand aunt. Her brother Dan Grant is my great grandfather.) Roseanne --- Bill <[email protected]> wrote: > > R.
