Looking for descendants or more info of the above.
My Great grandmother was Mary Elizabeth Barrett, b 1882 and died 1956 in Parrsboro, NS.
She came to Parrsboro to work as a maid to the Durant family, met and married Gordon McAloney, never to return to Newfoundland. Another sister, Selina, also moved to Parrsboro and married Gordons' brother Archie. They both died young, leaving a family to be raised by another McAloney brother. Rachel visited several times from the US. However, I know nothing of the rest of the family who remained in Nfld. Appreciated any assistance.
