Greetings Friends,
I am hoping to learn something about my husband's family from Latheron. Robert and Christy (Christina?) were married by Rev. Robert Gunn, minister there on July 1st, 1812. They had 3 children: Ann, James and John born before taking ship for Nova Scotia, Canada in 1818. They settled in Country Harbour/Stormont, Guysborough County and had Elizabeth, Kenneth, Catherine and Jean May there.
I have not been able to find anything more about their family in Latheron, but I suspect that Rev. Robert Gunn might have been a relation of Robert Henderson. Did the minister also perhaps leave Scotland for Canada about the same time? I haven't found a burial record for him and since his son died in Ontario, Canada and the next minister at Latheron took over in 1820, does anyone know where he went?
Thank you so much.
