When I found my 2x grt gparents 1869 marriage I discovered the bride Isabella Chisholm's parents were Hugh and Catherine. She was 23, and what is intersting is that two days before, ANOTHER daughter of Hugh & Catherine, Margaret, also 23, married a George Gent. So did my GGGM have a twin sister?
That is not the real question, but I am trying to find out more about the parents, Hugh and Catherine. I believe I have tracked them down to the Little Harbour area of Pictou (near Merigomish, I believe) in the 1851 and 1881 censuses. Does anyone have this family from the 1871 census?
The elder Hugh was probably dead (1867?) so it would likely be under Catherine Chisholm (about 62 yo), or their son Hugh, about 33.
Thanks!
Nick

>From "A Dictionary of Scottish Emigrants to Canada before Confederation" , Donald Whyte, 1986 Vol 1
entry 6754. McIntosh, Charles.
>From Petty, Inv. to Cornwallis N.S. 1785. Later settled East Branch East River , Pictou Co. Farner and landowner .
m 2 June 1775, Isabell Ross, qv.
ch: Donald, Hugh, Duncan, Isabell, David, Mary, Margaret, Elizabeth, Sally.
In the same source Isabell Ross is identified as from Flemington, nr. Ft George, Inverness. , d/o John R. Wife of Charles McIntosh.
A seperate line entry (on the same page) is added for Donald as "s/o Charles McIntosh and Isabell Ross. It reads: b. ca. 1776. from Petty, INV s/o Charles M. qv, and isabell Ross, qv to Cornwallis NS 1785. setld East Branch East River. Farmer m. Ann, dau of Alexander Falconer, "(listing 10 children, etc).
Another reference I found says both Donald and his brother David were born in Inverness-shire (Petty).
http://www.rootsweb.com/~nspictou/elect_text/Pictonians_ch_1...
"David McIntosh, son of Charles McIntosh, settled a short distance above his brother, Donald McIntosh. David was born in Inverness, Scotland, and married Christie Chisholm. James McIntosh, his son, Island, East River, married Catherine Grant. Two of their sons David C. and Finlay G., entered the ministry. Hugh, another son of David McIntosh, married Isabel Polson and gave that man of weight and wisdom, Rev. Charles D. McIntosh to the ministry. Two other sons entered the medical profession. "
I was wondering if anyone might have any further information on son, Duncan.
Duncan McIntosh is believed to have married Mary Chisholm in Pictou County Nova Scotia.
Mary Chisholm was 12 when she came to Pictou from Glenurquhart Inverness-shire in 1802 with her parents James chisholm and Martha Marjory. She was reported to have married at a very young age (possibly 14)
I am primarily interested in knowing if Duncan and Mary had a daughter called Ann/Anne/Annie/Nancy
A 1920 news article in Nova Scotia erroneously identified Ann McIntosh as a daughter of Duncan's brother David and his wife Christy/Christie Chisholm (a younger sister of Mary)
Annie McIntosh married John 'Mor' McDonald. They had a daughter Elizabeth (Betsy) who married a Donald Chisholm. The same news article identified Elizabeth as an Aunt by marrige to the Hon Duncan Cameron (DC) Fraser (Lt Gov of NS)
