Hello Victor and Thank you.
All I have to go by is my Aunt's obit. It states that she immigrated to Canada in 1925 with her family. My great grandparents names are John Buchan and Florence Rennie. It mentioned that they settled in the Peterborough, Ont. area. My great aunts and uncles listed are Charlotte (Lottie), David, Richard, James, Dan, (Danny), and Ronald, (Ronnie). Of course my grandmother Flo (Florence) was with her when they immigrated. My great aunt was born in Glasgow in 1916. I have no idea of my Grandmothers date of birth, I just know she was born in Aberdeen, Scotland, and was buried in Peterborough. I would appreciate your help, if you could find anything on this family. I met some of them in Peterborough, and they were definetely Scottish. The ones I did meet as a young child have long passed away. It has been very frustrating for me to pinpoint any type of records or information. I had Trent do lookups and they couldn't find anything but Buchanan's for that area.
