Here are some of the families I am researching. More detailed information can be found on each family by selecting it's html link.
My McMillan ancestors, are originally from Islay, a small island off the west coast
of Scotland. The McMillan's came to Canada to settle in Grey County Ontario around 1852.
The Camerons are originally from Islay, I'm trying to establish if they also came to Ontario.
The McDougalls are another Islay family I am tracing.
The Kerr and Baker families. Islay, Scotland.
My first set of Munros: The David Munro family, were United Empire Loyalists who settled in Ontario after the American Revolution. Previously
they had lived in New York State, having emmigrated from Scotland.
The second Munro family that I descend from, Hugh Munro, were also UEL, and are from the same part of Scotland as the other Munro family.
