Family Surnames

In the hopes of making some family connections, here is a list of the surnames that I'm investigating. As you can see, I'm about as Nova Scotian as a person can get, with a dash of New England. If you think we have a connection, please say hello.

  • BENTLEY (Kings Co., Nova Scotia)
  • BROWN (Cape Breton, Nova Scotia)
  • CONROY (Colchester Co., Nova Scotia)
  • DEWAR, DEWER (Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island)
  • HISCOX, HISCOCK (County of Queens, Prince Edward Island)
  • LYONS (Nova Scotia, Massachusetts, somewhere in Ireland)
  • MACDONALD, MCDONALD (Pictou Co., Nova Scotia)
  • MACGOWAN, MCGOWAN, MCGOWN (Digby Co. & Queens Co., Nova Scotia)
  • MACLEOD, MCLEOD (Pictou Co., Nova Scotia)
  • PIKE, PYKE (Channel, Newfoundland)
  • SNEESTON (Prince Edward Island)
  • TUPPER (Colchester Co., Nova Scotia)
  • WEIR, WIER (Hants Co., Nova Scotia; Narragansett, Rhode Island)

Of course there are more, but that's a good start.
