  • Eunice was a Widow when she married William S. Doyle, and O'Brian was her married name since she had a daughter named O'Brian when she married him. There is a Trenholm Robinson living with William and Eunice doyle in the 1881 census and in his marriage information he lists his parents as Merchant and Eunice, which is the same the names as Eunice's parents. This suggest that Eunice's maiden name was Robinson.

Dear Bruce,

It is OK with me if you list my name. Here is my information on William Sutherland Doyle's family, so far. (above - formatted to fit the site - Bruce)

I am wondering if you knew that there is a book on "The Allen family of Amherst Head, Nova Scotia : Some Memories of the Lives of Ida May Baxter (1869-1951) and William Anslie Allen(1863-1930) taken from many sources and put in the present form by Willard Allen (grandson)" The reason I ask is that Ida May Baxter was Trenholm Robinson's Sister-in-law and it lists in the baxter line genealogy Trenholm's dates as 1858-1920. This is about all it says abt Trenholm, exact that it says that he used an old barn of the Allens as storage and they refer to him as "Uncle Tren". I hope this helps.

Yours truly,

Michael
