Hi, I am trying to find information on my great great grandmother's parents. Her name was Emily (Emma) Elizabeth Cheetham. She was born November 9th, 1872 in Clarendon-Lyndhurst Twp., Granville County, Ontario and died March 19th, 1952 in Oshawa, Durham County, Ontario and is buried in Mount Lawn cemetery, Oshawa. She married William Gordon McDougall Sr. on July 1st, 1891. Her fathers name George Cheetham born approx. 1847 in Upper Canada and Anne (poss. Anna) born 1847 in Upper Canada. I was told by a relative that Anne was a full MicMac Native American and George was a Minister (priest). I am not sure if this is true and won't know until I can verify it through a resource. I may have possibably tracked down my great great great grandfather George Cheetham at http://www.rootsweb.com/~onleedsg/docs/ld_mar.htm with the data:
George W Cheetham 35 Leeds Robert / Betsy Annie Webster 26 Leeds Edward / Jane Aug 1, 1870 Farms 237
I also may have found him at http://www.islandnet.com/cgi-bin/ms2/jveinot/search with the data:
CHEETHAM George W. Lyndhurst Village Leeds R. Leeds & Lansdowne L&G-87-5
I am really stuck at a road block after Emily Cheetham in my family tree. If someone with the resources could please help me to verify this research I would be very thankful. Thanks.

Annie was born about 1847 and George was born about 1834. She married William Gordon McDougall on July 1st 1891 in Renfrew. But the marriage was not registered until 1892. Does anyone have any information on a George and Annie Cheetham who had a daugther Emily (Emma)? Thanks.
