My maternal grandmother, Margaret Foley Donohue, was born in 1884. Her parents were James
H. Foley, born in 1838 in Maitland, Nova Scotia and Elizabeth Thompson Foley, born in 1856
in Kennetcook, Nova Scotia. James' parents were John and Sophia Foley, both Nova
Scotia natives. Elizabeth's parents were Samuel and Mahala Cameron Thompson, both Nova
Scotia natives. My grandmother had at least two siblings: Agnes (born 1873) and Everett
(born 1876). There were both Camerons and Thompsons, including my great-grandmother
Elizabeth Thompson and my g-g-grandmother, Mahala Cameron Thompson, living in the
Kennetcook area of Hants County, NS, in 1871, according to the Canadian Census of that
year.
