MCAUSLAND TOKEN INFO WANTED

  A web site visitor writes:  "Greetings;  I'm Reg MacAusland,
  and I'm asking for help. You may have noticed that my surname
  is a close approximation of McAuslane, in fact the marriage
  licence of my grandfather was written as McAuslane. I am not,
  unfortunately, a coin collector but I am now in the process of
  compiling my family genealogy.  That direct genealogy involves
  the two geographical locations mentioned in the identified 'article',

  Newfoundland and Prince Edward island; involves both the
  McAuslane and McAusland spellings contained in the article;
  and includes a Peter McAuslane, a merchant, associated with
  both Newfoundland and Prince Edward Island in the period
  1800 to 1840's .

  That said, a recent Internet search led me to your site,
  introduced me to the existence of the McAuslane token for the
  first time , and triggers this request for help on its background .
  Could one of your subscribers provide me with the details of
  this token - and the PEI McAusland token -  as to their history,
  purpose, issuer, time frame and any other relevant data?  In
  turn, I would be willing to exchange genealogical data which
  might expand the historical background for both of the tokens
  mentioned."

  [If anyone can help, please contact me and I'll put you in
  touch with Mr. MacAusland.  -Editor]
