Hi I have a James Mackay in my tree ,parents Alexander Mackay and Elizabeth Mackay (Bessy)
He was born 23 Dec 1829 Rossal Rogart. married Ellen Stothers,Wawanosh ,Huron, Ontario.Canada
Does this match Ian
James parents Alexr and Bessy, Bessie or Betty MACKAY married 6 Jan 1829.( Scotland OPR) They are my 4Th great grandparents. Here I am at a standstill, as there are several possible Bessies born 1803-1806 as per Scotlands people.I have undocumented evidence that Bessie's parents are Walter Mackay and Frances Murray . Alexr parents James MACKAY and Janet SUTHERLAND.I also have anecdotal evidence that Alexr and Bessie immigrated to Upper Canada about 1830. I have found evidence of James life and career in Canada.
Does anyone know where I might go to confirm these assumptions as I haven't been able to proceed without more known facts? Any information that you could give me or direct me to would be greatly appreciated. I would like to know if there is other members of this family still in the area as well. Thank You.
