Hi all, I'm sorry everyone had to put up with the nonsense posted to the list today. Needless to say I've had a few complaints. I'm unsubscribing "Mary and Larry" now and that should be the end of it.

I am looking for information, and am hoping someone can point me in the right direction. My great great grandfather was named George Fisher Talbot. Looking over his death records, and marriage intentions, I have managed to glean a small amount of information about his parents. He states that his fathers name was Daniel Talbot (Talbott) on two of the documents, and that it was Charles Talbot(Talbott) on two others. Not knowing which was correct I have been trying to follow both. There is also some confusion as to where his father was born. Trenton, New Jersey is listed on the death certificate by his widow, but on all of the marriage intentions he lists Nova Scotia. I understand that there is a Trenton, Nova Scotia, and am hoping to try there. He was born before 1859, as that is when his son was born, and died between 1896, and 1905, most likely in Nova Scotia. Doe's this name sound familiar to anyone? I have already tried to obtain a birth record, but haven't had much success. I think he was probably a carpenter of some sort, or worked with wood, possibly on a ship. Does anyone have any ideas? I would really appreciate the input. Sincerely, Tammie Benefiel Elko, NV

Hi, My grandmother, Jessie McNaughton, died in the Riverton Home in 1946. I contacted the Riverton Home and they are unable to locate her medical records. The attending physican at the time of her death was Dr. J.C. Ballen and he signed the death certificate. Would anyone be able to suggest what may have happened to Dr. Ballen's medical records - I am hoping that a family member amy still have access to his files. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Barb

Murdoch settled on land (without authority) that was part of the Philadelphia Grant in 1809. I also find him having cleared land in Rogers Hill in 1806-07. According to family notes left by my grandmother, Murdoch died about 1858. Donald died in 1863. I have no idea if they were born in NS or Scotland. I have a birth year for Murdoch of 1755, which seems possible but not probable. >> Murdoch and Donald appear next to each other in the 1817 Pictou census; Murdoch as a couple over 50 and Donald as head of a younger family of four. Another Donald is an 11-year-old passenger on the "Commerce" in 1803, with his parents, James and Janet. I have seen a later census in which Donald and Murdoch Stewart are listed in the same household, or adjacent ones, as "fiddlers," but I haven't located my notes on it. They may be related to William Stewart, my wife's GGgrandfather, but I haven't yet found parents for William. He was born about 1823 in Pictou Co., probably Rogers Hill, married Jane Logan (d. of Walter Logan and Mary Ann Matheson) about 1845, and died in Weaverville, CA about 1859. They had four sons, all born in Nova Scotia: Charles A. (my wife's greatgrandfather), Robert, John Kenneth, and William A., who all died in California. Peter Fish wtc48@aol.com
