   Does anyone have any information on Eugene McCarthy(born around 1830) in Canada? He’s the missing link to our family tree. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

   @Canadian Genealogy: Try contacting the Chelmsford Genealogy Club directly – many of their volunteers are able to help with research like this.
