Did your McKinnons and McPhee's come to Nova Scotia or Prince Edward Island, Canada

Anne: I was given a phone number to call the Inverness Crematorium, I wonder if that would reveal anything?
As far as burial is concerned, you could try phoning Inverness Crematorium (01463-717849) who keep records for Tomnahurich Cemetery which was the main cemetery at that time. They have lair records from 1864 (for private graves top of the hill).

Sorry, missed this post.

There's a RCer on here who may be able to help, from memory it may be ghostwhisperer she goes under?

You can probably find her if you type in Tomnahurich in the search bar at the top of this page?
