very little info- please help John "Jack" McEachern - Mount Forest, Ontario, CA
My grandfather died before my parents were married in 1969.He was one of two children in his family in Mount Forest Ontario.He had one sister, but I do not know her name.
The only records I've found of McEacherns in Mount Forest were in the 1901 Ontario census:
-Allen McEachern (b.1838), married to Margaret (b. 1854), with daughter Mary (b. Jan 15 1888), and sons Nicholas (b. Oct 16 1889) and Allen (b. Dec 30 1891)
-Mary McEachern (b. 1837) who immigrated from Scotland in 1854 but never married or had children and supported herself (teacher, i think, as nearly every woman on that side of my family were teachers)
My grandfather was probably born around 1910-1920, but I don't knowwho his parents were or if they immigrated from Scotland after 1901 or what.If anyone knows anything I'd really appreciate it.
