Heather:

Probably I can't help much (and I'm not sure what your question is!); but I
couldn't resist your reference to being in "...Nova Scotia but born and
raised in the beautiful Ottawa Valley", because I was born and raised in the
beautiful Annapolis Valley but am living in the Ottawa Valley. Oh well. But
I can say that Ashton is in Carleton County. The problem seems to have
arisen because Ashton is right on the boundary between Carleton County and
Lanark County. In fact, much depended on which side of the main drag one
lived on - one of those puzzles.

Hope you love Nova Scotia. "Down East" is one of those things that tugs now
and then at one's heartstrings - and soon it'll be "Springtime in the
Annapolis Valley". Sigh....

Subject: [Can-Ont-Lanark] McFadden and Baker


Hello everyone,

Isaac McFadden died 24 Feb 1908

his wife: Ann Jane Baker
died: 6 Mar 1911 Ashton,Goulbourne Twp. Buried in Ashton,
Lanark Co. ;o)

their daughter: Hester Jane McFadden
born: 7th April 1866 Ashton
Died: 12 Jan 1937 Ottawa, Carleton Co.

>From the records it seemed they couldn't make up their minds whether they
lived in Goulbourne, Carleton Co. or Ashton , Lanark Co. LOL ;o) But Hester
Jane married and moved to Ottawa anyway, so I guess that settled that!

I haven't a clue about the McFadden or Baker ancestry...nor do I know where
to start. Haven't seen their names mentioned yet on the list. Any and all
input gratefully accepted!

Heather Evans Putnam
Nova Scotia (but born and raised in the beautiful Ottawa
valley!)
