Hello Listers -
I have a relative; Margaret Ann Bonnar whose birth records were found at http://www.novascotiagenealogy.com as being born on 18 June 1868 at "Little Bran Dix". I've looked at the original images and the writing is clear. But I can't find any location, lake, bay, mountain or anything else in Canada, let alone Cape Breton that is a match. Margaret Ann Bonnar was the daughter of John and Sarah McInnis Bonnar, and they were married 17 Sept 1867 also in "Little Bran Dix". The family moved to Sydney Mines sometime before 1870, where her next youngest sister, Louisa Bonner was born Jan 1870, and died sometime before 1874. Thanks for any help.
