Need info on death and burial [tombstone?] of Wm Nash in Guysborough on Oct 5, 1814 (seeking info on his ancestors in Ireland). He married Elizabeth Aikens at Christ Church Anglican in 1799, & his children were married at St. Ann's (Catholic) Church in Guysborough starting in 1820.

Also, any posasible connection of Wm's to John Nash, Loyalist, from NY would be most appreciated.

Many thanks, Liz Nash Wallace
