Hi folks, I'm forwarding this query to the list as it was sent to the the digest subscription request address. Please send all queries to the list at CAN-NS-PICTOU-L@ROOTSWEB.COM. Please contact Holly at the following email address if you can help "mailto:hollyjp57@hotmail.com" Good luck! Rick MacNeil P.s. My guess is that land deeds might provide an answer for you if you can get into the Deeds Office in Pictou. Perhaps the Richie records in the New Glasgow library might also provide links between William, his wives and daughters. +++++ Hello: I'm a new list member and was wondering if anyone has any info or links to William Fraser of Pine Tree Gut. Following is the info I have: b. about 1800 d. 1882 - he was married twice - second wife's name Anne - two daughters from first marriage: possibly Mary, and Margaret b. 1838 d. 1920 m. Angus McQueen - two daughters for second marriage: Jessie Alice and Georgetta Agnes b. Oct 21, 1864 m. Arthur Bowden Atkinson I have hit a brick wall. I've received copies of some land grants for William Fraser near Pine Tree Gut, but have no way of knowing whether it is the right William, and there seems to be several in the same area. I have the original copy of his will and copies of probate records, but they don't specify the land location. I believe William is buried in Riverside Cemetary, is there some way of contacting the cemetary and would they have any further records? Thanks for any help. Holly
