Hello again! My search for Henry Miller continues. Recent information leads me back to Hants County - in particular to George Miller, who settled in Kennetcook in 1783, his wife was Margaret Kuhn.

Henry Miller

Judy Miller — 3 Mar 2000 12:00:00 GMT

Searching for information on Henry Miller , born about 1770 - married Sara Wright. We know they kept an Inn at Brandy Brook. We have always thought Henry was a Colchester County Miller, but finding no parents or siblings here, we have decided to try Hants County. The "Miller Book" gives no information on Henry previous to his marriage to Sara. My husband is a descendant of Henry and Sara, and we would gladly share any information we have. Looking forward to hearing from anyone with Henry and Sara in their family tree. Thanks.

NewArticle - East Hants Acadians

ts864 — 31 Aug 2008 5:21:23 GMT

Hi

In the most recent issue of the academic journal of the Royal Nova Scotia
Historical Society in an article entitled "Noel Doiron and the East
Hants Acadians" (available at the NS Archieves or through the Historical
Society's website).

It outlines the history of the four Acadian villages on the East Hants shore in Walton (Petit Rivier), Noel (Vil Noel), East Noel (Vil Robere) and Selma/ Maitland (Jaen Peters Village).

The articles repots on three Acadian families living in East Hants: Doiron, Henry and Lejeune - there migration to Ile Royale and Ile St. Jean and then to their tragic deaths in the deportation.

The article also explains after whom the communities "Noel", "Noel Road", etc. were named.

Cheers

Thomas Dummer & Eunice Lavers m 1865 in Hants, NS

dadummer2 — 30 Aug 2008 7:28:33 GMT

I am eager to learn ANY details about the families of Thomas Dummer and Eunice Lavers, who were married in Hants, Nova Scotia in 1865.

According to an online marriage index, Thomas Dummer was the son of Joseph T. and Elisabeth Dummer. (Joseph T. Dummer was born in "Windsor.")

Eunice Lavers, born in "Newport," was the daughter of Charles Lavers.

My goal is to determine whether this Thomas Dummer could be my 2nd-great-grandfather, Thomas William Dummer, who was born c. 1844 in Nova Scotia. At present I know nothing more about his ancestry. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Catherine Parker

frankmosher_1 — 22 Jul 2008 8:17:12 GMT

We have an Eliza McLellan in the 1871 census,age 56,married to Allen McLellan.
Eliza's death cert.(1874) says her mother was Catherine Parker and father was Joseph Parker.
The 1871 census also has a Walton household with Thomas Parker,age 69,and Catherine and children who would appear to be his wife and children because of same last name.I think it was probably his daughter who also married a Parker and their children.
However,I believe that Catherine,Thomas' and Eliza's mother was a Burgess,prob.the dau. of Thomas Burgess(the son of the N.S.Planter Benjamin in Centre Burlington,Newport,N.S.) and Elizabeth(Pate) Burgess.I believe it went;
Benjamin(5)Burgess m.Hannah Church(pg.117,Duncanson,Newport
Thomas(6)Burgess m.Elizabeth Pate,dau. of Priscilla Haliburton(Pate)Card and step-daughter of Jonathan Card.
Catherine(7)(Burgess)Parker m.Joseph Parker
Eliza Parker m.Allen McLellan
I would appreciate anyone confirming or refuting this theory.
Thank you,frankmosher@eastlink.ca

Catherine Planet was listed in the 1901 census as a Domestic, with a Minnie Pepper and family...in the1901 city directory she was living at 219 North Street as Catherine Davis wid of Joseph...her son was married by this time...

In the 1881 census her son George William, was listed with a Margaret Miller age 50, in Halifax...thanking you in advance for any help...Sheila

Sarah KILLEN / WHITEHEAD / CROWELL

loviepoo — 14 Sep 2003 11:33:03 GMT

Sorry about your accident.I hope you are on your way to a speedy recovery. Thankyou for the maiden name of Sarah Whitehead. I was able to find her listed as Sarah Killen living in St. Croix, in the 1871 census at age 8 which would mean she was born in 1863 but I cannot find her on the 1881 census. As she would have been 18 in 1881 she may have married by then but not to George Whitehead as he is listed on the 1881 census as age 24,single and still living at home. My questions are
1. Does anyone know if Sarah's name was Sarah Catherine Killen?
2.Does anyone know when Sarah married George Whitehead?
3.Is it possible that Sarah was married before she married George Whitehead?
4.If so, was she married to a Crowell?

Christian Miller Dies at Northfield - August 1, 1930
The Halifax Herald.
There passed away at Northfield, Hants County, on Friday evening, July 25, Christian Miller, at the advanced age of 95 years and six months. Although he had been in failing health for two and one-half years, since he had a slight stroke, his death was unexpected. The funeral service was conducted Sunday afternoon by Rev. R. Fowlow, Anglican clergyman. The hymns sung were: "the Lord's My Shepherd," "Just as I am Without One Plea," "When Our Heads Are Bowed With Woe" and "There is no Night in Heaven." These selections were beautifully rendered on the organ by Lawrence Miller, of Portland, Maine, who only three weeks ago played the hymns at the funeral of Mr. Miller's sister, Mrs. Robert Fenton, Portland, Maine. Mr. Miller leaves a widow, seven sons and two daughters- Creighton, Eliza, Sylvanus and Albro, Northfield; Thos., Five Mile River; Hector and George, Lantz Siding; Mrs Fred Hamilton, Lower Selma and Annie, Salem, Mass. All the children were present at the funeral, except Annie. Interment was in the Northfield Cemetery.

David Dill, b. 1780, d. at sea, 1831 was married to Rebecca McLatchy and had five children: Jane, Rebecca, David, James, and William. Are the James and William, both 64 in the 1871 census in Scotch Village the James and William mentioned in Rebecca's 1845 will? Rebecca was born about 1787 so would only have been 20 when these possible twins were born.

HUTCHINSON, LOWDEN, NICKSON, NICKERSON

RBNichol — 6 Mar 2008 2:51:28 GMT

I need to find a couple of graves.

According to his estate notice in the Acadian Recorder newspaper, my ggg-grandfather John Francis HUTCHINSON, known as Francis during his lifetime, died 1 Jan 1816 in Hants County; he was listed as being “of Windsor,” and was survived by his second wife, Fawnia “Fanny” HUTCHINSON, née LOWDEN. He was a Loyalist immigrant to Canada from Yorkshire, England, via New Jersey and New York, having arrived in the USA with his parents and siblings in 1774. As far as I know, he was a lifelong Anglican.

Although Francis’ primary homestead in Nova Scotia was near Morden in Kings County, later in life he and Fanny must have moved to the Kentville (Cornwallis Twp.)-Windsor area, where she had family (surnamed NICKSON/NICKERSON by her first marriage, as well as LOWDEN); that is the only explanation I have for their reported presence there. None of the recorded Kings County cemeteries have a grave for either of these people. Are they in Hants Co.--? Please help!

I am hoping someone can help me find my Rolfe's. My ggreatgrandfather was Annias Rolfe married to Margaret Cahill.

I know about Jane as she married Samuel Vanner and they raised their family in Eastport, Maine. I would really like some infomation on Annias and Margaret, like parents, where they may be buried etc. I can only guess on birthdates which may be around 1819 or a little before giving the date Jane was born. I am willing to share the infomation I have from Jane down with any family members doing the same tree. Annias and Margaret are such a mystery. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Kennedy & Rines Family Windsor & Maitland, Hants Co Nova Scotia >>Portland Maine

BettyTartas222 — 13 Feb 2008 10:23:19 GMT

Recently I discovered that my great great grandfather THOMAS KENNEDY b abt 1825-30 prob Windsor, Hants Co Nova Scotia Canada, was the son of JOHN KENNEDY b abt 1800 Ireland and ELIZABETH BETSEY RINES b abt 1800, Maitland, Hants Co, Nova Scotia Canada. They were married about 1818 in probably Maitland.

According to an 1887 letter by HENRY J RINES b 1826 Nova Scotia died 1871 Portland Cumberland Co ME, JOHN KENNEDY & his family lived at Windsor NS and then moved to Lubec, Washington Co ME, where John Kennedy died. I have found him there 1840 US census Lubec, Washington Co ME, with his eldest son JEREMIAH KENNEDY b abt 1818 prob Windsor NS.

JOHN KENNEDY's widow, my ggg grandmother ELIZABETH RINES KENNEDY, moved with some of her children, including my gg grandfather THOMAS KENNEDY, to Portland, ME by 1850. She is in census there 1850-1870.

I have copies of the original 1887 document, as well as a transcription by Kathy Waters, the researcher who sent them to me.

My ggg grandmother ELIZABETH BETSEY (RINES) KENNEDY b 1800 Maitland NS was the daughter of JOHN RINES Jr b 1766 and ELIZABETH McDONALD;
and the grandaughter of JOHN RINES b 1730s-40s & ELIZABETH TOAL. I am uncertain at this time if these two JOHNs were born Nova Scotia or in Massachusetts.

I have just begun to research my family in Nova Scotia. The 1887 letter does, however, give a full list of the children of all these couples and names most of their spouses.

Would be interested in comparing notes with anyone researching these families in Hants Co Nova Scotia

Elizabeth Carr married Lewis Ettinger. One of their sons was Archibald Carr Ettinger. He married Anne White (1806-1843). Does anyone have information on her family?

One of the children of Archibald Carr and Anne White was John Ettinger. He married Eunice Dalrymple (1827-1913). Again, I am lacking information on the Dalrymple side of the tree.

John CROWELL of Newport

smilescount — 30 Mar 2007 5:37:35 GMT

Hi, After a long break from my family search I am back hoping someone can help me.

My Great Grandmother was Annie May Crowell of Three Mile Plains who married Robert Mason of Rawdon. Her marrage slip list her parents as John and Catherine Crowell of Three Mile Plains. Annie May was born in 1883 and died in 1919 of TB. Does anyone have any information on John and Catherine Crowell ie. birth dates,other children or the parents of John Crowell.

The 1871 census for St.Croix list a John and Catherine Crowel as having children George 22 ,Anne 15,Silas 8 William 6 and Mary 19.

As my Annie May wasn't born until "1883" this cannot possibly be her family. According to her marriage slip,Annie May was born in Rawdon but lived in Three Mile Plains at the time of her marriage.

I have just found the death records for Annie May (Crowell) Mason on the new NS Archives web page and it list her father as John Crowell whose birth place was Newport, Hants County. It does not list her mother's name or birth place. Does anyone have a John Crowell of Newport in their family tree?

Thanks
