  • Notes 
    • Archibald Maclsaac, one of the early pioneers that came to this district from Scotland, was about twenty years of age when he landed in Cape Breton. Schools were much needed at the time, and teaching appealed to him. He engaged as a teacher, and kept at it for over twenty years, placing the young people of his day under lasting obligations to him for the chance he gave them to make a fair start in life.
      He married Mary, a daughter of Mrs. Mary MacMaster of Creignish and raised a large family, three sons and seven daughters.
      Two brothers of Archibald Maclsaac came out from Scotland in pioneer days and settled in Antigonish. John was a tailor and Donald a mason by trade.
      Pioneer Archibald Maclsaac, school teacher, and the Maclsaac's of Broad Cove Banks [Archibald, son of John and possibly John, son of John] are of the same Maclsaac's.
