RE:Nova Scotia Timeline
Hi,

It's great to see such a good effort from your side to have a Noca Scotia timeline to connect with your family tree. We often get without relevant data at some point in the journey and tackling those issues seem really an interesting part of this. I'm a French woman working here in Dubai in a maid service company (check my website here) and I have friends from many nationalities here. I hope you will get it done quite perfectly soon.
