Thanks Edward I knew someone would have the connection. I did have Duncan's parents in my files. The source is the book "Dictionary of Scottish Emigrants to Canada Before Confederation" and its source is Eldon Connections. I just needed someone to help me put them together. I know that it is probably undocumented but it is better than what I had. I assume from the picture of the twins that Janet also went by Jennie? What is the connection to Hugh McArthur that they would have their picture taken with him/ Is this a wedding picture of Kate and John. I notice that Hugh McArthur and Janet McCuaig were their witnesses on their marriage registration?
