MacRae, Robb & Mackenzie Family's - Chippawa Niagara Falls

Hi From Highlands of Scotland
I am looking for family members in Chippawa,Canada. They are my mothers (85yrs) family & has never seen any of them & has very little info. I have found some info through Ancestry etc.
Mary Mackenzie (Mothers Aunt) born Easter Logie Ross & Cromarty Scotland 18.11.1869. Husband James Alexander MacRae born Cromarty, Scot 15.10.1869. There son-in-law Thomas Wyllie Robb arrived Quebec 1921. There son William George MacRae, Quebec 1921. There daughter Susan Robb & 2 kids George & Lillian, Quebec 1923. I found an Obituary for Lillian 31.10.2008 she was married to a Charles Arthur Allen. I also found out that Susan had more kids after arriving in Canada from the Obit, Florence (Menzies), Terry, Alex & Isobelle (Mann)(my mothers name is Isobelle). Mother remembers Susan being at Mary's family home in Scotland, my granny & grandfather were living in it at the time. But sadly my mum never met her. Susan left a brooch with a Maple leaf on it with my granny for my mum which she still has, A cousin Robert Mackenzie DOB11.11.1900, Canada 1924. She thinks he was the Provost in Chippawa at one time and his brother Donald Mackenzie DOB 27.05.1899, Canada 1929. They are Mary's nephews. I have found a Donald married to a Christina Beatrice Dey with the same DOB.
Can anyone help?

I hope you are still tracking this post. I am the daughter of Terry Robb and Susan was my grandmother. I would love to share information with you about our families as I do not have a lot about our family in Scotland.

Hi
Great to hear from a new family member. Sorry I only noticed the message today, it is dated 15.05.15. I would love to hear about the family in Canada. My mam's dad John Mackenzie was a brother of Mary Macrae (nee Mackenzie) which would be your great grandmother. Was a bit confused for a while until I figured out that that Terry & Edwin was the same person. Have I got it right. My email address is - midfearn@gmail.com. Hope you get in touch, look forward to hearing from you.
