I find Allan Charles MacKinnon in the WWII draft cards in 1942 with a DOB of 2 Oct 1887. He lived in Middlesex Mass, was born in Sydney NS

World War II Navy, Marine Corps, and Coast Guard Casualties, 1941-1945 list Steward W MacKinnon with relatives listed as Allan C MacKinnon who lived in Mass.  He was Killed in action.

I find on the 1920 Census Newton Ward 6, Middlesex, Massachusetts Allan MacKinnon, born about 1887 in Canada, spouse is Eva, both parents were born in Canada, they rented their home.  He immigrated in 1911 and could read and write.  children at the time were Elizabeth MacKinnon,2 years 4 months, and  Flora J MacKinnon, 1 year 6 months.

The best thing you can do at this point of your research is to look on the net and find other people who are doing the same surname as you.  Rootsweb has a free message board for about every surname you can think of. You might also want to join a genealogy group and see what other help other researchers have to offer.  Keep plugging away and best of luck in your hunting.

(IF I have the right Alexander above, this would tie in and Hector would be the GREAT-GREAT GRANDFATHER of the Allan you are searching for):

"Hector MacKinnon,son of Captain Hugh MacKinnon** and Jane Robley. Hector married Katherine Ross of Nova Scotia. They had several children:Rachel, James,John and ALEXANDER.".

***Would be, in order, the GGG-Grandfather

http://genforum.genealogy.com/mackinnon/...

"Descendents of Hector MacKinnon 1790>1871"

Says Alexander (1826 Scotland - m. Catherine Morrison (?)in 1846), was son of Hector MacKinnon, b. in Scotland before 1790 & was the son of John MacKinnon and Catherine

(wonder if John M's middle name was Hugh or vice-versa??)

(Hope I have the right members of the right families put together. The site at genforum has over 380 messages about the MacKinnon family of Scotland/Canada.)
