In the 1870's three McBains - two brothers and a sister, left their parents' home in Nova Scotia and settled in Lake County.

1. MARJORY MCBAIN first married JOHN RANDALL, and had a son WILLIAM in 1879 (family in 1880 census). By the 1900 census Marjory and son were living with her brothers in Orland Township. Her surname at that time was HICKS, so she obviously married a second time. She died 25 September 1909, according to her inscription at Graceland Cemetery, Madison.

2. Her brother WILLIAM A MCBAIN settled in Orland Township. He never married. He died 11 Feb 1922, and was interred at Graceland Cemetery.

3.Her brother SIMON MCBAIN also settled in Orland, didn't marry, and died 3 Feb 1913, interred at Graceland.

I would appreciate their obituaries, or any details anyone can help with (I do have census records). Thanks in advance for any help! Marlene
