Hi Genealogst1
It's good to hear from you and find yet another link to our family tree. If I understand correctly, your relative, Margaret, would have been a sister-in-law//sister of my great grand parents, Alexander Nicol and Mary Donald Nicol. Is that right?

I'm brand new at this but I can clearly see family connections. I am a grand daughter of John Donald Nicol who was b. May 26, 1879, 3 Tocker St., Macduff (married to Margaret b. Nov 1882,  but I don't have her last name) His parents were Alexander Nicol b. abt 1840 in Macduff, and Mary Donald b. abt 1842, Aberdeenshire, Cluny. His parents were James Nicol and Janet Robb. Her parents were John Donald and Margaret Duthie.

John Donald's siblings, as I have them, are Jessie, Mary J, and Alexander all born in Macduff. John Donald Nicol served in the Boer War. He moved to Canada.

I only began searching his roots this week so have not managed to go back further than  Alexander and Mary's OPR Marriage Cert. either, but I have a few more bits about John Donald and his brother Alex.
