I have the name of her father as Lewis MacKay and her mother as Bessie (could be Elizabeth) Smith. Lena Sophia MacKay was born April 29, 1878 and died April 1, 1962. She married Thomas Hogg Davis on October 23, 1902. Thomas Hogg Davis was born April 20, 1875 and died February 11, 1928. Lena & Thomas resided in Jordan Falls, Shelburne, NS where all five of their children were born. After Thomas died she married Thomas' brother John Edwin Davis for convienence sake only. I have information on Lena & Thomas' descendents and Thomas' ancestry but no more information on Lena's ancestry. Can Someone help me? Thanks Wendy
