I'm hoping the Hudson Bay archives will help me but thought this
might be another avenue to explore. Sometime in the mid 1800s
around 1865, Andrew McPherson of no known origin, married
a native woman named Marie Ikwessens of no known origin. They
were in either Saskatchewan, Canada or Quebec, Canada. Big
help. They had a daughter, Elizabeth who married Francois
Naud, I believe they lived in Bouchette, Quebec. My interest
is in both Andrew McPherson and his wife. Any help would be
gratefully received. Thanks.

No email address. Mailing address 29 Woodbury Drive, Halifax, Nova Scotia Canada B3M 1Z7. Am searching my family tree. My great great grandfather came to Prince Edward Island Canada from the Isle of Skye in the mid 1800s. His name was Norman Campbell. He brought his wife Ann with him along with children. Two of the children were sons Angus and John.
Please contact me if you can help or advise me where to contact for assistance. Thank you.

David Fraser Inverness, UK Jan 17, 2001
A number of my paternal grandfather's family emigrated to New Zealand and Canada around the early part of the last century. Grandfather was William Alexander George Fraser,
born 1899 at Cawdor, Nairnshire. He later married Johan MacDonald, born 1895 at Croy, Nairnshire. The names of his brothers and sisters include Jane, Isabella, Catherine, Donald,Amy, Margaret, James,Hugh and Colin. I am uncertain as to who went where although I know Amy stayed in Scotland and married a man Coupar who was a fish merchant in Helmsdale.Williams own family consisted of Donald (Donnie),
Chrissie, Winnie and Betty. I would be grateful for any information which could shed some light on this 'lost Generation'. If further info is required please e-mail me.
Many thanks
