The story and genealogy of two immigrant next-door neighbors in Boston whose children married in 1937. Both families came to Boston via the Canadian Maritimes: the Duffs came from Ireland to Newfoundland, while the MacKinnons came from Scotland to Nova Scotia. The author, their son, knew nothing of their history and his journey is one of genealogical research and serendipity. The book includes more than 75 photos, illustrations, and documents.
