Hello,
I'm so sorry I have taken so long to reply. I asked my Mother if she knew anything..and sadly, we have not traced out ancestry any further than here in Canada.
They were farmers near Elgin, as my grandfather's birth record was in the Elgin Church. Other than that, I don't know. There does seem to be a very long line of James in our family, not to mention some Catherines too.
If I should find out any more, I will be sure to forward the info to you.
