McRae; Boston city directories
If someone in the Boston area has a few idle moments and could look in the Boston City directories for my gg-grandfather John McRAE and his wife Mary, I would be very grateful. Probably several of his adult children also; William, Dougall, John and wife Christie, Louise McRae Valentine, Alexander. According to Mary's obit, the McRae's arrived in Portland Oregon in 1876. Family oral history says they came from Cape Breton via Boston, probably between 1870 and 1876.
