     Hi  Kathleen,
           Went around the Trail also, and although it's beautiful, I agree,  it's very scary !!
           Yes ,I know about the Scotland's people. Are you a member ? How much would it cost " Canadian " to use it for a year or less ?
            Thank you....Dru.

         Hi Kathleen,
               
                 Sorry for not replying sooner. We just got in from town.
                  So you were in Cape Breton. Did you go around the Cabot trail ? We are surrounded by the Bras'Dor Lake, and live quite close to the Dundee Golf Resort.
                   I see you live in the Laurentian Hills. It must be lovely there also. My husband and I travelled as far as Sarnia Ontario. ( When we were younger )
                     Hope someone can help us with our Drummond- Johnston Family.... Take care. Dru.

        Hello Kathleen,
               In reply to your question ;  I'm a Cape Bretoner !! I married a Drummond and we live on Cape Breton Island, Nova Scotia. Where do you live in Ontario ?

     Hi Kathleen,
         Great to see that you're still on the site. Are you from Ontario, Canada ?
          My husband's family are Drummonds who migrated to Toronto, Ontario, in the early 1900s. They moved to Nova Scotia in the late 1900s.
          I haven't got a clue who Catherine's parents are. That's why I'm trying to find a connection on Rootschat. I have a strong feeling that she might have been the daughter of one of the Johnston brothers or maybe a close relative......John was born in England and I'm sure she's from Dundee, Angus.
           Thank you for your prompt reply....Dru

       Hi Kathleen,
           
            I'm hoping that you're still researching the Johnston family of Dundee Angus( Scotland )
            I've read all the messages that were sent to you, but didn't come across one with Catherine Johnston who married John Drummond . They were born in the late 1700s and early 1800s.
             Their children were :
                 William Drummond. b. about 1820s
                 John Drummond.    b. about 1830s
                 Jane Drummond.  b. about   1833
                 George Drummond b. about 1845

  Would greatly appreciate any help from you or anyone who has information on this family.
             Thank you,
                        Dru.

         Hi Paul,
              Just came across your add for information on the "Johnston " family and was wondering if you happen to have any information on Catherine Johnston, who married  John Drummond in the mid 1800s.
               John was born in England, but has family ties to Scotland.
                I have no information on the " Johnstons " as yet. Hoping you or someone else can help me.
                         Thanks.....Dru.

              Would it be possible to find George and Ann's children, names and years of birth ? I think they had 3 boys and 1 girl.

            Hello Gadget,

     I'm searching for information on the family of " Alexander Irvin Drummond. All I know is that he was born around 1888, somewhere around Aberdeen, Inverness, ???
     Alexander married MaryAnn Courage/Mcrae and they had a son, Alexander Mcrae Drummond, before they immigrated to Canada.
      We find it hard to research without dates and names of cities, towns , etc.
       Hoping someone can help. Thank you........Dru.
