Mercy Fuller and David Lockhart were married on 3 June 1781 in Canada, Nova Scotia, Kings Co., Horton.204,777,1055 337.

Nova Scotia states that the Lockhart family of Horton is of Scotch-Irish origin, but did not know when they came to Nova Scotia. His information on the family came from Rev. Arthur John Lockhart ("Pastor Felix"), a descendant of Nathan Lockhart and Elizabeth Fuller through their son Nathan Albert Lockhart. He related the story of three Lockhart brothers, Nathan, Elihu and David. Elihu settled in Hantsport Nova Scotia, David, probably first in Horton, then in Cambridge, Mass. and Nathan, made his home permanently in King's County. David orginated the widely known Lockhart Casket manufactory and undertaking business in Boston and Cambridge (724-725)
The Horton, town register of births, marriages and deaths, 1751-1895 has the following family listed - presumably this Elihu Lockhart -

Rebeccah born Feb 22 1822 Donna (and Ray)<penn57@comcast.net> are researching the following:
Elihu Lockhart (b. 5 Nov 1781 in Nova Scotia) and Nancy Whitehead.
Oliver Lockhart (b. 8 Sep 1813 in Nova Scotia) married ? Had
George B. Lockhart, b. 12 Dec 1838 in Nova Scotia. George married Amanda S. Borden, b. 14 Sep 1844 and from Lockhartville, Nova Scotia. George and Amanda had Annie Florence Lockhart, b. 4 June 1864 in Lockhartville, Nova Scotia. Annie married Sidney A. Kimber in Brooklyn, NY and settled in Mass. Sidney Kimber wrote a genealogy book. Amanda S. Borden ancestors were:
Silas Hiram (or Hiram Silas) Borden (b. 9 Sep 1818) and Mary Card - both of Nova Scotia Joshua Borden (b. 3 Dec 1774) and Charlotte Fuller (b. 22 Feb. 1788) - both of Nova Scotia Noah Fuller and Elizabeth Bishop (are they Charlotte Fuller's parents???) | | ii. | Elizabeth Lockhart1057 was born on 22 July 1783 in Canada, Nova Scotia, Kings Co., Horton.777 She died in 1866.1057 William and Elizabeth had purchased 100 acres of land from her father and sold it by 1824 and moved to St. John. Their son William H. Allen remained in Hantsport or Port Greville, N.S.
I believe Elizabeth's family go back to East Haddam, Connecticut and went to Nova Scotia about 1763. I must look this up my next trip to Ct. Historical Society. (Herman Marshall) | | iii. | Ann Lockhart1058 was born on 12 May 1785 in Canada, Nova Scotia, Horton Township.777,1058 She died on 7 July 1864.85 correspondence from Eleanor Gavazzi - My great -great- great grandfather John Nason was born in Horton c. 1804 his mother was Ann Lockhart born in Horton, and his father was Benjamin Nason born in Portsmouth NH. Ann Lockhart was born 12 May 1785 in Horton, the daughter of Mercy Fuller and David Lockhart.I see that you descend from her younger brother John Lockhart who was born 22 Nov, 1788. I find it interesting that his son Captain John Alexander Lockhart was a ship master. My Nason research has shown that there was quite a bit of traveling back and fourth between Nova Scotia and Portland.This has made it a bit tricky, but I made a breakthrough this past week. Benjamin Nason who was married to Ann Fuller was also a mariner, there son John Nason Was a ships carpenter, his son James Nason was a rigger. John Nason and his family immigrated to Portland from Nova Scotia around 1841.I say immigrated, but they were back and fourth so much I think they didn't know where they were born. They were born in Nova Scotia but Christened in Portland. John Nason was 44 years old in 1850, Captain John A. Lockhart was 38, these two men were 1st cousins and close in age, I feel thet had to know each other. Here's my line in a nutshell,
1.David Lockhart m Mercy Fuller

correspondence with Christopher Lockhart -
"....my connection. Working backward:
My father is JOHN DAVID LOCKHART (b. 11.11.34) His father was:
GLADWIN BORDEN (b. 4.29.06 d. 5.15.76) His father was:
DAVID HENRY PERRY LOCKHART (b. March 1877 d. 1955) His father was:
JAMES EDWARD (b. circa 1832 d. 8.4.1913) His father was:
CAPTAIN JAMES (b. 2.12.1791 d. March 1858) His father was:
DAVID LOCKHART (married to Mercy Fuller). He was born circa 1760 and died July 1827.
His father was:
JAMES LOCKHART born around 1700 and died 1789. He married Rebecca around 1720.
They settled in Horton Township, Nova Scotia, Canada circa 1762. (Probably from Northern Ireland.)
Captain James had an older brother John (born 11.22.1788). John had a son, John Alexander. He had a son, BENJAMIN -- who is listed in your geneaology. So, the way I figure it, BEN's grandfather (John) and my great great great grandfather (James) were brothers.
