Re: St. Paul's Church Rawdon
do you know at all if the shunamon's were part of the Rawdon grant? I know that 3 or 4 of the Shunamon's married Rubens Children. and that is where some of the later generations were married and bureid. I do have a copy of Whittiers info. I dont know how much more or if any more he had, but i have the one with the hand drawn maps of the grants and the records kept by the church.

St Paul's Anglican Church, Rawdon, NS
A plan for the St. Paul's Anglican Churcha at Rawdon, Ns was prepared for builder Nicholas Mosher sometime before June 13th, 1794. The Commissioners for the new building were Jonathan Snelling and Wiliam Smith, Esquires. The rector was Rev. George Pidgeon.
William Smithss statement regarding the price was as follows; "I the subscriber will raise a church in Rawdon according to a Plan that William Smith Esquire sheweth me for 102 pounds Currency of this Province.

I am looking for someone that would take pictures of the headstones for my Great-Great-Great-Great-Grandparents: Jacob(buried February 8,1822) and Ann(buried May 15,1861)? They are listed in the Register of Burials in the Parish of St. Paul's. Always looking for information on my Great-Great-Great-Grandparents, James Alexander and Mary Ann(Hurley) Withrow. Also can not find my Great-Great-Grandfather, Thomas Alexander Withrow's birth/Baptism around 1839 to 1840 there in Halifax, Nova Scotia. I have found most of his siblings however. Any help would be so appreciated. Thank you, Gail
