I would like to hear from anyone that connects to this family; 3. WILLIAM2 MURRAY (CHARLES1) was born 1828 in Nova Scotia, Canada. He married SUSAN MCKAY 01 Jan 1857 in Hillsborough, Albert Co., N.B., daughter of WILLIAM MCKAY and OLIVE (?). She was born 1838 in Hillsborough, Albert Co., N.B.. William and his family do not appear in the 1881 census for Canada, produced on CD, by the LDS church. However, I have obtained the page from NB Archives, and they do appear as family # 11, in Dist. 23, Sub Dist. 1, (Hopewell), page 3. (Thomas A. Henry, Enumerator).
