Mary and William Arbuckle had 11 children and the family lived around Merigomish & Barney’s River.

Their children married into such families as Mason, Livingston(e), MacLean, Slater, Bowen, Patton, Dempsey, Robertson & Riggs.  And among the Mason family, a couple of boys who got struck with gold fever that I'll write about in another entry.


Nancy married a Hiram Downing and had 4 children - Caroline, Thomas, George & John.

Catherine married John Smith who was from England and they had 2 children - John  & Joshua

Lydia married a Joshua Stevens and had 11 children: William, George, Charles, Sarah, Mary, Edwin, Joshua, Phebe, Agnes, Mitchell and Margaret.

And in true genealogical bewilderment, in writing this blog I have discovered that somehow I got turned around and never finished the research for these girls - down the rabbit hole again and most like MIA for a while!
