Jen, :)

I had some of that information but did not know about the gunshot wound or his exact birthday! . Thank you!

Where did you find that information, if you dont mind sharing..

I am working on a scrapbook of him and really appreciate the information.

Hi,

It's from a book called "The Morayshire Roll of Honour a biographical record of the men and women who took part in the great war 1914-1918".

I have a copy that belonged to my grandfather and when I saw your original post I thought I would look it up to see if your Robert was there.

 I also had a look for him on http://www.cwgc.org/ and he's there too but maybe you've seen that.

Regards
Jen

Well Jen,

Thank you very much. I would never have leaned those bits of information had it not been for you.  :) You have given me more to go on.

Now, if I could find a picture of him, Id be a reall happy camper. I have a picture of the Royal Fusiliers but I have no idea which one he is. :D There is a man in the picture that is the spitting image of one of my brothers and of my father....I am thinking that it may be him. LOL

Thanks again!

Amberglass:

I believe we may be related. Your mention of the ship Caledonia triggered it.  My GGF William Hay MacKenzie also came over on the Caledonia to Montreal, then to Ontario.  His father, Thomas MacKenzie married Elizabeth Cameron Merrilees.  Thomas's parents were Alexander McKenzie and Margaret Hay.  Margaret Hay was born about 1816 in Hopeman, Duffus, Morayshire.  She died in Aberlemno, Angus, Scotland 12 November 1887 and is buried in the Aberlemno Churchyard - apparently it is either in Forarshire or Angus as the boundaries moved some over time.  Her parents were William Hay and Agnes Mason.  William was a mason in Duffus, Morayshire in several Census. (1851 and 1861 I believe - if these are the same people).

I am trying to find out anything about the ancestors of Margaret Hay but apparently the records of Duffus Morayshire are not available through SP or FamilySearch. 

Any help you could provide would be greatly appreciated.

Scott
