My husband and I were in Nova Scotia on vacation and spent a few hours at the Hector Exhibit Centre in Pictou. I knew my great grandfather was born in Pictou (it turned out Pictou County was more accurate.)and his date of birth. From his obit. I knew the names of 2 of his brothers. Knowing this much we were able to find his family in a couple census reports. That told us his siblings and his parents names. They also had a card catalog that referenced newspaper announcments (births, deaths, marriages) and we were able to find his fathers obit. which happened to include where he was from in Scotland and when he emmigrated. Good luck.
