Biography
History of Inverness County, J.L. MacDougall (1922)[1]
THE CHISHOLMS OF THE FORKS.
"In 1809 Archibald Chisholm (An Gobhain Glasrach), a native of Strathglass, Scotland, and his son John, came from Antigonish, and opened a Blacksmith shop at Margaree Forks. Next year he brought his wife and the rest of his family. This Archibald was the son of Donald Chisholm (Gobha) who died in Antigonish before Arch'd's family moved to Margaree. Donald (Gobha) it is said was the author of some spirited Gaelic songs, and had other sons besides Archibald, namely: Father William, Alexander, John, and probably one or two more. Archibald was married to Jessie Chisholm also of Strathglass, a half sister to John Chisholm (Big) of Harbour au Boucher. Their family were: John, William, Donald, Margaret, Catherine, Ann and Jessie.
...Catherine was married to Angus Cameron, with issue: John, Archy William, Mary, Ann and Margaret..."
