 Hi Ken,

 For early (pre 1871) census records in Nova Scotia the only
name provided is that of the head of household. Do you have
any details for John Stuart's father, such as name, age,
or location?

 It may also be possible to search on early passenger / immigration
lists, for example using Ancestry.com.
