I am looking for information on Isabella McBurnie, Douglas, Buckler who married William Seaman, they lived in Wallace, Cumberland County, Nova Scotia.
One suggestion was that Isabella may have been the daughter of Grizella.
She was born around 1807 and died in 1907 in Wallace Ridge, Cumberland County, N.S.
Two of her deceased children have their mother listed as Isabella Douglas and two list her as Isabella or Bella Buckler.
Any information would be appreciated.

Hi, according to cemetery records, Grizella McBurnie was born 1790 and died 1880. She and John Douglas and William H Buckler are all buried in a private cemetery the MacBurnie-Buckler Cemetery in Colchester County, NS. I haven't been able to find anything on Isabella -- I think she was born prior to Grizella's marriages to either John Douglas or William H Buckler. Perhaps posting this to the Colchester County board as well might be helpful.

Thank you for the suggestion. It is very hard to find birth records for the early 1800's.
Isabella's husband is buried in St. Andrews Anglican Cemetery in Cumberland County where they lived. However, I am beginning to think that Isabella may have been Grizella's daughter.
