Notes |
- From Margaret Cameron, Box 621, Long Sault, Ontario KOC 1PO
"I spent much time when I was a child with the older members of my familyand what I have listed for you is from family records. I have a copy of aletter which Somerled MacMillan wrote to my father's cousin, CassieMacMillan, outlining the MacMillan family history.
The last time I visited Cassie she was about ninety eight and my AuntMaggy MacLean with whom she lived was one hundred and one (Aunt Maggy'sdaughter had been married to Cassie's brother). These ladies were themost articulate women I have ever known outside of my two grandmothers.My Grandmother Cameron went out to vote when she was in her ninety sixthyear before she fell and broke her hip 'out at the farm'. My Grandmotherhad been a teacher but she and her sister spoke the Gaelic amongthemselves. My one cousin wrote a chart about Duncan Ban's family(GLenpean-glennevis) and published a family history. I grew up in thisatmosphere. My Dad was quite an historian. Unfortunately, i lost all hispapers when I was in Florida but I do have the typescripts. "
