    3. I am looking for anyone who might have information concerning a William B. MacDonald who was born in Halifax in ca 1918 and died in Halifax in Feb 2003.  William was the son of Colin MacDonald (1878-1966)  who was born in New Glasgow and Margaret Walsh (1879-?) who was born in Halifax.    Margaret Walsh came to New Glasgow to work with her sister in the early 1900's.  Colin and Margaret were married in 1917 in Truro.  They lived in Massachusetts for a while with their children but eventually returned to Canada, most likely to the Halifax area.  Colin and Marggaret also had a daughter Mary who was born ca 1919 in Halifax.   Colin MacDonald was the nephew of Father William B. MacDonald who was the pastor of Lourdes until his death in 1918.  His parents were John( 1839-1923) and Mary MacDonald (1846-1937).  John and Mary raised their family in New Glasgow and are buried at Lourdes Cemetery.   If anyone has access to the obituary for William B. MacDonald from Feb of 2003 that would be a great help.  Thank you in advaance for any assistance you can provide.
