Hi Donald - wanted to provide an update on some research I've been doing. There's a lot to share so I'll break it up into sections. First: --------------------- Quoting you from a post back on Jul 15 2011(http://www.clanlivingstone.info/forum/viewtopic.php?p=10664#p10664): I could been wrong, but I ...

Not sure why I missed your last post - just seeing it now. thank-you for the information!

Donald, it’s been a while and my apologies for not updating much sooner. Since my last post I’ve been able to discover some additional details that I’d like to share regarding Thomas Doig: I was able to find his discharge papers from the 78th Regiment of Foot dated 20 December 1824. It states (in pa...

Donald - I've reached out to the Innisfil Historical Society via email to see if they can point me in the right direction with regard to the marriage record. Also, I've put in a request with my local library to borrow some film from the Archives of Ontario, but apparently that process can take weeks...

That's good to know - I'll track that down and look to see if it's there. With any lookups/etc I'd like to help wherever possible. I've been thinking of traveling to the Simcoe County Archives but I've never been to any archives before, so I'm reading on what is involved, putting together a list of ...

I too saw a Thomas Doig born 1796 inKilmadock, Perthshire, Scotland - ancestry.ca gave me 8 hints on other family trees. But when I looked at the details, every one of them listed him as dying in Kincardine, Perthshire, , Scotland in 1880 so I'm also thinking this is a different Thomas.

Donald, some updates: While building up my family tree on ancestry.ca I noticed someone else was related to Catherine McDonald (Livingston) through Catherine's older brother, Allen. I've been in contact with her and she provided what she knew of Catherine McDonald, her siblings, parents, etc. Here's...

I've come across a piece of information today that, at the moment, is causing me to wonder if this Archibald Livingston in Grenville is really my great-great-grandfather after all... There's a book entitled "History of the Counties of Argenteuil, Que., and Prescott, Ont., from the Earliest Sett...
