I have been researching my family tree with regards to Nova Scotia for the past year.
I have made tremendous progress, but whilst saying that there are some entries that have eluded me, to the degree that they have not been completed.

These missing entries I have saved up, and I am now hopefully looking for someone who might be interested in completing them, by looking up their respective obituaries.

I have divided these outstanding queries into two groups, confirmed details and insufficient details. As the the first group might just throw some light on the second group.

Confirmed dates of death:

Abigail (nee Lowden) Kirk birth Feb 1838, death 17 Sep 1915 in Pine Tree, Pictou, Nova Scotia
Alexander Kirk birth 22 Feb 1862, death 1 Sep 1951 in Purlbrook, Antigonish, Nova Scotia

Charles Kirk birth 30 Sep 1915, death 8 Jun 2006 in New Glasgow, Pictou, Nova Scotia, Canada
Ellen (nee Burnside) Kirk birth 21 Jun 1834, death 25 Dec 1920 in Antigonish, Nova Scotia
Mary Catherine (nee Grant) Kirk birth 18 Nov 1876, death 18 Oct 1960 in Thorburn, Pictou County, Nova Scotia
Robert Daniel Kirk birth 4 Jun 1871, death 15 Dec 1936 in New Glasgow, Pictou, Nova Scotia
