Hello, I am looking for any information on the McCurdy's of Rawdon. John and Rose (from Ireland) lived there and had children Bryan, Catherine and Isabella. There may be a few others but the census records are unclear. Does anyone have any information regarding this family? I know that Bryan was a councillor for the town at one time. Catherine and Isabella both married Robinsons. Any information would be greatly appreciated.
