I know there are Tonary's in Nova Scotia - Cape Breton in particular. But I do not know the origin of the name. I assume it is of Irish descent, probably a derivative of Tonry, Tonery, or both.<br>Anyone have any information on the history of at least the first Canadian immigrants?<br><br>Hope to hear from you.<br><br>Z.
