Lauchlan and Elizabeth McKay, Shelburne, NS

[Inez Reed]

Hi Cousins - Lauchlan apparently had three wives, Elizabeth Urquhart, Hannah West and Rebecca Cole. Any of you researching the Shelburne, NS McKay families have any information on the "other" wives?

Best wishes,

Inez

What does "NS" stand for?

Sorry, NS is Nova Scotia. The subject line should also read Lauchlan McPherson and Elizabeth Urquhart.

Regards,

So you have started a thread in the Caithness, Scotland forum about a couple born & married at an unknown date & unknown place who lived in Shelburne, Nova Scotia, Canada? And their names are Lauchlan McPHERSON & Elizabeth URQUHART, not Lauchlan & Elizabeth McKAY? I know we are good at solving riddles, but we are not that good!

The chances of you finding (on any forum) someone else who is already reseaching your own family are exceedingly remote. The chances of finding someone on the BG forums who is willing to help are high - but only if you give us accurate & sufficient information in the first place.

In this case I think you may need to start all over again with a new thread in an appropriate forum with the correct title line, giving details about what you already know about this family & making it clear exactly what information you are looking for. You may need to ask the moderators to put a stop on this thread so that others don't duplicate what has already been found.

Trying to renew the thread under the McKays of Thurso. Please omit all together.
