Elizabeth, I suppose it would be just too coincidental that your initial stands for Hemlow...? I've got ancestors in Guysborough County, too. Hemlow devolved from Umlach/Umloch. There's also McDaniel, Kennedy, Pryde/Pride, Hewitt, Mitchell Pam Beveridge
Pam, no, the initial is for Handler, my married name. My Guysborough names include: Pyle, Whitman, Hull, Morgan, Atwater, Hadley, most (but not all) of whom were Loyalists who moved there from the states in about 1783.
Any mention of Guysborough County in there? Or the towns of Boylston or Manchester? I've got a few Loyalist ancestors who were in that area.
