Thomas Mitchell and Isabella Bryson McFarlane
« on: Sunday 09 November 14 20:46 GMT (UK) »
Hello,

I am searching for any living descendants of Thomas Mitchell and Isabella Bryson McFarlane, of Wishaw.  Their son, Robert Prentice Mitchell came to Canada with his brother, Alexander in the late 1800's.  I know they had many other siblings; some who went to Australia.  Robert Prentice's son, Melvin Roy Mitchell is my grandfather.  His son, Robert McFarlane Mitchell, is my father.  All are buried now in Pine Hill cemetery, Magog, Quebec, Canada.  I would love to know if we have any family still in Scotland.  Thank you.

Have a word with Drop Bear, a Rootschat member who is researching the same family. I sent her extracts from the Cambusnethan burial records and pictures of what is left of the Mitchell/McFarlane gravestone in the old churchyard.
