My Madills have a similar story as your Madills, coming from Ireland to Ontario and quite possibly living or having relatives in Nottawasaga or Nippissing. Details are sketchy but here is what I have. My:
GG Grandfather Thomas Madill
G Grandfather Richard Madill
Grandmother, Jennie Hariet Madill b:1900
m: Edward Hetherington 1918
There is mention of an Uncle Harvey and 2 first cousins (to Jennie I think)Russel and Walter. The story goes that Richard and his wife ?Westacott died young leaving Thomas and his wife to raise their two young granddaughters Jennie and sister Evelyn. I believe they moved to Gladstone, Manitoba where Thomas was buried. There is also mention of an Alice Madill but this could quite possibly be attributed to poor memory as I don't know where she fits in at all.
It would be wonderful to have a connection here as Jennie's children are getting older and would dearly love to know more about their mother.Hopeful in St.Albert, Alberta, Canada
