William Cameron

Gerald J. McCrossin — 22 Mar 2001 12:00:00 GMT

I am looking for information on William Cameron who married Henrietta Crossman. Married about 1859 in Kent Co. N.B. I believe some of their children were Amanda (1865) William (1867) Margaret (1869) James (1862)Robert (1860) George (1872) I believe Margaret married a Thomas Mullins; Robert may have married E. Pollard; and George married Jeannie or Jane LeBlanc or White. Jane Leblanc's father's name was Raphael. I know this information is vague but I am just getting started and only just learned my last name should be Cameron. Thank you everyone for your help.

Rachel Graham
Mrs. Rachel Graham, relict of the late John Graham, of Molus River, is in her ninetieth year, her birthday being Jan 9th. Her maiden name was Grumble, and she was born in Kingston, Kings Co. N.B. She and her brother, after whom the Grumble Road is called, came to Kouchibouguac in 1814. At the age of seventeen she married John Graham. They had ten children, of whom the eldest, John, was drowned in the Kouchibouguac River, May 3rd, 1872. Mrs. Graham can walk around the farm without feeling fatigued.

Hutchinson Family

abuman — 8 Nov 2007 3:47:57 GMT

I have located who I believe is my grandfather
Robert James Hutchinson born 1881 St John, married to
Catherine A King born 1890, son Robert King Hutchinson.
His son Robert Paul Hutchinson.

I believe my great-grandfather would be Robert Hutchinson
born March 25, 1855 and married to Annie Hutchinson.

Robert James and Catherine King first children were Mary
Lenore born July 1904 and Ronald King born July 1908 both
in St John< New Brunswick. Robert King hutchinson and his
twin sister Shirley were also born there but I am unable
to obtain their baptisimal certificates as yet.

Robert James Hutchinson and Catherine King Hutchinson
immigrated to the United States throgh Boston, I believe,
in 1926 and migrated to Queens County, New York. Many of
the names on the -hummer457 - posts are familiar to me
during my own research and are of interest.

The last known addres of Robert and Catherine in Canada
was 448 Main Street, St John, New Brunswick. Ronald King
and Mary Lenore were baptized at St Peter's Church in St
John.

Robert James and Catherine King Hutchinson are buried at
St Mary's Cemetery in Flushing, New York. They passed
away in 1951 and 1959 respectfully.

Any information I can glean in the future would be greatly
appreciated.

Thank You,

Abuman

Drouin Marriages - Spinster, Widow, or Q

hummer457 — 22 Jul 2008 9:59:31 GMT

I recently discovered that Ancestry.com's "Acadia French Catholic Church Records (Drouin Collection), 1670-1946" database contains more than just Catholic records.

In the marriage records, bride's column "Spinster or Widow" I've come across not only S and W, but also Q. Can anyone tell me what the "Q" designates?

Thank you,

Carleton, Kent County, New Brunswick, Canada

margdoiron — 11 Jul 2008 11:13:13 GMT

Kent County covers a large portion of the French community in this province. Today there is also another county here named "Carleton County". I'm not sure exactly what area, at that time, would have been considered the community of Carleton, but if you still want to know, let me know & I'll make some calls.

Need West Branch Days Lookup

Louise_Bouchard — 17 Mar 2006 9:01:26 GMT

If someone has a copy of West Branch Days, I am trying to locate the maiden name of the Elizabeth who married James Morton, son of James & Mary (McMichael) Morton. James, the younger, was born 6 Nov 1823 at Anwoth, Kirkcudbrightshire, Scotland and died at West Branch, Kent, NB on 12 Sep 1906. He married in Kent County, New Brunswick around 1847 an Elizabeth, who was born in Scotland around 1825. I believe West Branch Days may just be the place where this information would be available.

Gideon Smith -Baptist -Wellington Parish

hummer457 — 12 Mar 2008 10:41:23 GMT

There are several family trees online referencing generations of GIDEON SMITHs - United Empire Loyalists - Baptist - from Rhode Island & Massachusetts to Sackville & Dorchester, Westmorland County, NB.

I had believed that my John Smith b 1847 was the son of Gideon Smith 1810-1892 - son of Gideon Smith 1777-1850 and Mary Lamb 1783-1869.

However, I found my John Smith b 1847, with wife Matilda Seely b 1850 (daughter of Charles H Seely and Jane Irving) and children in one of the following Wellington Parish, Kent County censuses with a Gideon Smith, born
about 1804/05 - NOT 1810.

Gideon b 1804/05 continues to be found in Wellington Parish, Kent County censuses. John Smith b 1847 & family also continue to be found in Wellington, Kent County records.

Does anyone have additional information on the following GIDEON SMITH b abt 1804/05, who lived in Wellington Parish, Kent County?

Note 1: I have also found the Mathew Smith family in 1870 census of Machias, Washington Co, Maine, before they returned to Wellington Parish, Kent Co, NB by 1881. Have not been able to track them after 1881 census.

Note 2: Several trees online have Matilda Seely b 1850 as "Mary Matilda".
All records I have seen for her say only Matilda - not Mary Matilda. I'm wondering where the "Mary" came from. Perhaps her baptismal record, which I have not been able to find? Matilda Seely & John Smith are my
gr-gr-grandparents.

I would be very grateful for any information about the family of Gideon Smith, b 1804/05, his wife Nancy/Ann, or their children? Ancestors, baptism, marriage, death or burial records?

Thank you,

Swapping information, GROGAN/WALLACE, Kouchibouguac, 1826 on...

ancestorguy — 22 Feb 2007 1:32:17 GMT

Looking to exchange info with others researching GROGAN and WALLACE surnames in Kent County starting in the mid-1820s. My ancestors were Joseph GROGAN, a native of Cork, IRE (b. abt. 1774) and Elizabeth WALLACE, a native of Limerick, IRE (b. abt 1808). All their children (I know about) were b. between 1826 and abt. 1855 in the Kouchibouguac area. They were: Margaret, John, James, Ellen, William, George, Johannah, Hugh. Attached are images of Joseph and Elizabeth's grave marker in the Roman Catholic cemetery at Kouchibouguac.

Church Records Microfilm Recommendation?

hummer457 — 23 Feb 2008 10:48:14 GMT

I wish to learn which church records microfilm might contain the 1861 marriage record referenced by the following newspaper extract:
New Brunswick Newspaper Vital Statistics
Date : July 27, 1861
County : Northumberland
Place : Chatham
Newspaper : The Gleaner and Northumberland Schediasma
m. At residence of bride's father, by Rev. James Law, John HUTCHESON, Merchant, Richibucto (Kent Co.), / Elizabeth STEVENSON youngest d/o Mr. STEVENSON, same place.

My understanding is that Reverend James Law was a Presbyterian minister? (He was the father of Andrew Bonar Law.) John Hutchinson & wife Elizabeth are listed as Presbyterian in the 1861, 1871 & 1881 censuses. They lived in Bouctouche.

The PANB Kent County Guide lists the following, but I notice that none of the Presbyterian microfilms go back to 1861.
I've already viewed the Latter Day Saints' version of "St. Martin in the Woods, Shediac, 1829-1956, F1104" with no success. The LDS film number is 1412406. Are they the exact same films?

Can anyone tell me which of the following films would be my best bet to find John Hutchinson & Elizabeth Stevenson's marriage record?
Thank you,

Buctouche and Moncton Railway

ehaddix186 — 29 Jan 2008 5:53:07 GMT

Does anyone have the lyrics to an "old-timey" song that begins: "I went out to Moncton, the journey was fine, on the Buctouche and Moncton railway line; of snails and tortoises I heard folks talk, but if I'm in a hurry to get there I'll walk. Singing tura lye ural, lye ural lye aye" [a chorus that repeats]. There are other verses about stopping to pick flowers and berries. Any additions appreciated!

My source for part of the song is guitarist George Fisher of Coates Mills.

KINREAD: William 1818 and Albion 1858 Rexton

William KINREAD 1818-1898 married 1) Margaret LAMB of Dorchester, Westmorland Co.; 2) Eleanor (Fitz)Simmons. Albion KINREAD 1858 - married Mary Teresa or Tessa (Fitz)Simmons (the wives were sisters).

William KINREAD had at least 4 children: Who were they?
He and Margaret did live in Shediac for a time but I have not found them there on the 1851 Census.

The Grumble, Graham, Horton, Morrell Connection

Pat_Morrell — 15 Aug 2007 9:35:09 GMT

Trying to trace back these Families to their first connection with one another. I believe they all came together in the Chatham, Northumberland area, which eventually turned into the Richibucto and weldford areas of Kent County. My main focus is on the Morrell side of these Families.
Three GRUMBLE Sisters and one Brother were probably born in Kingston Parish,Kings County to possibly a George Grumble and Margaret Myshrall, and migrated to Kent County.

Son George Grumble b. abt. 1806 appears to have been a single person living as a lumber man and Farmer. He is first found in the 1851 Census of Victoria County.

What I am looking for is the 1861 census info on the Graham and Horton Families, and any earlier information 1800 - 1850 that might be known about this connection. My primary goal is to find the parents of James Morrell who died in Victoria County. I have already ruled out Hugh Morrell and his decendants living in Newcastle, Northumberland in
the 1850’s, because of his immigration date, and also the American Morrell Loyalists Thomas, John, and Daniel, because of a DNA test.

WHO WAS McINARGNICK, wife of HECTOR McLEAN???

DONALD McLEAN born 24th September 1791 Killean & Kilchenzie (Argyllshire Parish records Ref519/1) to parents Hector McLean and McInargnick. This name of McInargnick is obviously a mistake for his mother's name; I have no idea where it came from as it's not like any name I've ever come across.

Has anyone come across this name? Were you able to decifer it allowing you to research further back?

This is where it stops for me. I would appreciate any information on both HECTOR McLEAN & his wife McInargnick.

Many thanks for your help :)

Muriel Florence Makepeace, 1915-2007 wife of Jonathan Lawson, Bass River, obit

eljay17 — 18 Aug 2007 7:15:38 GMT

Hello everyone,
We are very sad to hear of the death of this wonderful lady who was a favourite supply school teacher at Rexton back in the 1960's. She also passed out tons of candies to the children at the Bass River Store over the years where she and her husband spent most of their lives serving the community. They will be long remembered for their generosity and kindness during the depression years following the war when Jonathan and Muriel were instrumental in helping many of our community survive. In addition to candies for the children, they handed out grain, lime, equipment, lumber for housing, use of horses, and all else for farming and lumbering operations. My own middle name is Muriel in this lady's honour. My uncle Glen Thompson now owns the store since they retired. I loved Mrs. Lawson very much and hope her memory lives here forever! She was a true peace maker!
With a sad heart and fond memories,
Elaine Muriel Thompson, 2007

I still live in the area and older relatives of mine claim to know who his father was supposed to be. I can get the information for you. If you want, you can email me at n5a80@unb.ca

kenyoun — 12 Oct 2006 8:45:55 GMT

I am looking for the roots of Minnie A. Long Austin. She was born in1884 NB My gm says she was from Richibucto. Minnie married Leonard Eldon Austin (from Chipman, Queens County) in 1917 in Portland Maine. Minnie had two daughters, Sarah (Sadie) Jane & Afreda G. Sadie is my grandmother (living). According to my GM (when she was 12 years old) Minnie died of encephalitis in 1933 Several Aunts came down from Canada and wanted to adopt Sadie. But Sadie did not want to leave her older sister Alfreda. Therefore they stayed with their father. I have the marriage certificate which says Minnie's mother was Mary Mulkern, father as William Long. The puzzling thing is that all resources I find say that William was married to Jane (Graham?) I see in the 1901 Census that a whole group from NB were in Portland Maine, Emmerson Austin & the Parsons family. I know these families are connected somehow. My gm remembers Minnie's father was a "Sea Captain" If anyone know's anything about these names I would love some help. I do have the "Austin" tree and will share any information I have. I know this is a long post, Thanks for reading it!

Hutchinson, Powell, Johnson, Turnbull, Chalmer, Stevenson

I'm hoping someone may be able to provide names of other HUTCHINSON brothers of Robert, Nathaniel and Edmund in New Brunswick - mostly Kent County.

I am trying to determine if my gr-gr-gr-grandfather John D. Hutchinson (b 1831 Bouctouche, d 1903 Bouctouche) was the brother of the following brothers:

1. Robert Hutchinson, Barrister-at-law (1825-1910), married Jane Powell, dau of Capt. Silvanus POWELL

2. Nathaniel Hutchinson (d March 1893), married Sarah FITZGERALD, Sarah died Mar 2 1845, age 22 - and/or Margaret B. TURNBULL - Mrs Nathaniel Hutchinson (Margaret Turnbull) ae 77, died June 25, 1902

3. Edmund Hutchinson (d 25 May 1892), married Mary Ann JOHNSON. Edmund's obit says he left several brothers.

My gr-gr-gr-grandfather John D. Hutchinson of Bouctouche married Elizabeth STEVENSON, dau of John STEVENSON and Mary (MCGRAW?) on 27 July 1861.

Can anyone verify if my John D HUTCHINSON was brother to Robert, Nathaniel & Edmund?

I will send additional info regarding Robert, Nathaniel & Edmund that I've collected from the Provincial Archives, Kent County GenWeb & other sites in a separate post.
Thank you,
Laurie

Annie Palmer and John Craik

Brian Craik — 21 Feb 2002 1:11:09 GMT

I am looking for information on John Craik who married Annie Palmer in Saint John, April 7, 1919. (Num. 1736, Reference B4/1919, FNUM: F16142). They had a daughter Rebecca Joan Brodie CRAIK, sometime between 1919 and 1925 when John Died. John was a Mason. He joined the Masons in 1920: #8 West Carleton Union, West Saint John New Brunswick. In their records he is listed as having joined on August 19, 1920 and having been "raised" to 2nd degree in 1921. His preofession was listed as : " Manifest Clerk", so he must have worked on the ships. Any birth information on Rebecca, information on her marriage (if she did) or on her death would be appreciated. I also do not know where and when John Died or if Annie had or has relatives in New Brunswick. Brian Craik : bcraik@sympatico.ca

1900 photo of Bouctouche church?

hummer457 — 9 Dec 2005 1:25:44 GMT

I would very much like to identify the church in the attached photo dated approximately 1896-1900. I believe it was in Bouctouche, because my great-grandmother in the photo, Theresa Ursula Smith/Hutchinson, was born in 1880 in Bouctouche. She grew up & spent her early married years there.
Can anyone recommend a contact, perhaps a historian from the area, who may be able to identify the church in my photo?

Thank you,
Laurie

Hulda Graham

LVArndt — 18 Jan 2005 4:51:14 GMT

Desperately needing a clue or hint to continue my search. I am looking for information concerning HULDA GRAHAM. She was my great grandmother.

My great grandfather was Jean-Chrysostome (Thomas) VAUTOUR also documented as VOLD in the Amherst NS 1861 Census.... VOTO in the 1881 Saint John Census and VOTOUR in the 1891 Cardwell Census . He was born 22 Dec 1816 in ST. Louis, Kent Co. NB. His first wife was Susanne Maillet and they were married in 1835. They had 9 children. He and my grandmother had 4 children:
James Clifford( Voto )Votour
George Hazen VOTO, VOTOUR ( my grandfather)
Emma S. VOTO BANNISTER
Elizabeth M. VOTO who died as a child

Hulda is listed in the Saint John Census of 1881 as HOLIDAY VOTO age 32 which would make her date of birth abt 1849. This could be in question . As a family they are listed as Roman Catholic and in a later census in Saint John as Anglican.

I suspect that she was from Kent Co NB. She is listed on some census lists as being born in NB but I have been told she spoke with a heavy accent ? Irish ? Scotish? I have also been told there was possibly a brother named John...but that as well is in question.

Would appreciate ANY and ALL responses to this query since this is an enormous brick wall for me.
