"Ah McCain, you've done it again!" As a child in Belfast my mother would recite: "Where do you come from?" "Donegal, where they eat their praties skin 'n all." So it's perhaps no surprise that Donegal is famous for potatoes ... and McKane/McCain. ;-) Gordon On 10/07/2018 10:58 PM, Len Swindley wrote: Yes, that is correct Boyd https://www.potatopro.com/companies/mccain-foods-canada-florenceville-bristol Who would have thought?

George Howard, SAMUEL, son of the late WILLIAM McCAIN (formerly of Meenahoney, Castlefin, Ireland), to MARY REBECCA, only surviving daughter of the late JOHN MACKAY, of Florenceville (formerly of Ballindrait, Ireland). Although residents of Co. Donegal, both the McCain and Mackay/ Mackey families would have attended Market and Fair days in Strabane, Co. Tyrone and hired their servants at the famed Strabane Hiring Fair. The McCain’s were kinsmen of the forebears of our webmaster, Jim McKane.
