Just had to annouce this---this is my GGG Grandfather, the last entry you posted. I'm still searching for his ancestors and siblings. I do know that he had one sister Ann McKenzie who married William Sutherland and they emigrated to Barney's River, NS, in 1820. My William McKenzie married Catherine Sutherland in Scotland. Still trying to find her ancestors and siblings. William and Catherine emigrated to Barney's River in 1803. > Wm MACKENZIE at Barneys River in his 62nd year A native of Sutherlandshire. > Mackenzie obtained a pastor and a library for Barneys River P.O. 20 May > 1834 p 79 Cathy MacKenzie Halifax, NS VIEW MY GENEALOGY WEBSITE: http://members.tripod.com/camack48 ----- Original Message ----- From: "Liz Mason" <liz@mason.ca> To: <SCT-SUTHERLAND-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Tuesday, March 27, 2001 3:53 AM Subject: Pictou Co early marrs and deaths from newspapers > Another useful book from NS Archives - Marriages and Deaths from Pictou > County--too many to transcribe but here are a few MURRAY marriages and I > picked out some of the oldies with Hector/Sutherland connections from the > deaths. > Wm MACKENZIE at Barneys River in his 62nd year A native of Sutherlandshire. > Mackenzie obtained a pastor and a library for Barneys River P.O. 20 May > 1834 p 79
