The Johann Christian Ernst Family of Nova Scotia

I am researching the Ernst family and would like to fill in holes and missing pages on Matthias Ernst and Maria Magdalena Eisenhauer, Johann Nicholaus Ernst and Salome Sarah Conrad, Edward Ernst and Matilda Young. If anyone has any information on these lines, please contact me.

I am willing to share my information but please be aware that I'm still researching and there may be mistakes in the side branches.

Thanks for stopping by and if you have any additions or corrections I would love to hear from you.
