Special thanks to the following for their Atkinson, Benoit, and McKinnon family tree information. The Atkinson Family. Tony Gagliani. akgagliani@msn.com Tony sent me much of the information on the Atkinson side of the family. He is the key Atkinson family resource. His records from the earliest days in "The Colonies" and Canada are extensive. You can visit his web site at http://familytreemaker.genealogy.com/users/g/a/g/Anthony-Gagliani-MA/index.html The Benoit Family Patricia Mahoney pattyssons@hotmail.com Pat has done extensive research on the Benoit family Tree and supplied me with detailed information. Visit her web site at http://familytreemaker.genealogy.com/users/m/a/h/Patricia-Mahoney-Ma/index.html The McKinnon Family. Larry McDonald. larry-macdonald@shaw.ca.  Larry is the McKinnon genealogist guru and is continuously updating information on all of the kith and kin associated with the McKinnon family surnames. His detailed records and historical facts are extraordinary. Make sure to check out his website at http://www.members.shaw.ca/larry-macdonald/index.htm Chris McKinnon. ChrisPM@aol.com. Chris gave me additional web sites and relatives to contact. Chris has some old sound tapes and 78’s of McKinnon and Atkinson fiddle playing that hopefully can be added to our web sites. Ann Johnston Gwen. anngwynn@verizon.net. Ann contacted me about information on our grandmother Mary Agusta "Minnie" McKinnon. She actually unknowingly started me back on this quest and added information on her Johnston side of the family. Cindy Mueller. cindy.mueller@adelphia.net. Cindy Mueller has a great McKinnon family web site. Please contact her for information and web site access Susan Sassi. rsassi@comcast.net.
