Books by Gwen Rawlings Barry in regards to Inverness Township, Megantic County

Classification: Query
Surnames: Johnston (later Johnson), Christie, McCammon, Forbes, Hall
I am trying to find out if Gwen Rawlings Barry's books on Megantic County are still available. I found an email address for her posted in 2005. I sent two notes in July 2009 and have never heard back. Anyone know where she would be or a source for her books.
These are the books I am looking for:

A History of Megantic County: Downhomers of Quebec's Eastern Townships, Gwen Rawlings Barry. Evans Books, June 2000

The Pioneers of Inverness Township, Quebec: An Historical and Genealogical Story, 1800-1978, Gwen Rawlings

Ulster Protestant Emigration to Lower Canada: Megantic County and St-Sylvestre

Parish Records of Counties Armagh and Tyrone, Northern Ireland, 1700s-1850,

I live in California but I am related to the Johnston (somehow the name got changed to Johnson as that is what my Mother's maiden name was), Christie, McCammon, and Forbes families from Inverness and surrounding area in Magantic County.

With many thanks

Surnames: Henderson, Campbell
I am related to Anne Henderson ( my 2xggm), daughter of Wilson Henderson and Susanna Mitchell. She married Robert Campbell.
Although I have all the names and dates, I don't know too much about the family.
