Does anyone have any information on Henry CAIRNS and Isabelle WYLIE? I believe they are
the parents of my John CAIRNS, born about 1829 in Chatham, Quebec, but need further
confirmation. Any information on either Henry or John would be greatly appreciated.
John CAIRNS married Sarah BAITON in Ottawa on 4 Jul 1861. They moved to Bangor Township,
Hastings County, Ontario and had three children - Jannet (b abt 1867) and twins John &
Archibald (b abt April 1870). Sarah and the twins died in June and July of 1870.
John then married Mary Ann McMILLAN (b 26 Jan 1848 in Ottawa) and had the following
children while living in Bangor Township:
William CAIRNS - b abt 1873
James CAIRNS - b abt 1874
Alexander (aka Sandy) CAIRNS - b 25 Apr 1875
Elizabeth Florence (aka Flora) CAIRNS - b 6 Mar 1877; married Harry LONG
Baby Boy CAIRNS - b & d 28 Sep 1878
John CAIRNS - b abt 1879
John Sr. passed away between 1879 and 1881. No death registration can be found.
Mary Ann (nee McMILLAN) CAIRNS subsequently married James ANDERSON. She died on 23 Apr
1931 in Monteagle Township, Hastings County, Ontario.
Any information on any of these people would be greatly appreciated.
