This is the first I have heard of this homecoming.  My g g grandmother Anne McColl was born on Lismore in 1819, married Donald McPhail in the 1840's and came to Elgin County in Ontario, Canada in 1884, with all but three of their adult children.  I have found birthdates for her siblings but have little information about their descendents.    I may be able to attend the homecoming, so would appreciate any information.  I have a number of Dr. Campey's books and find them most interesting.   Margaret in Toronto
