Find Ancestors

Hi Peggy -- when alviegal says your other thread, she means the one on Living Relatives? I do hope that's the only other!

I'd PMed Peggy to say she'd get a lot more help if she posted on this board, and look, it's started already. ;)

I mentioned that I don't know of any fires in Canada destroying records (in Ireland and in WWII in England for WWI records, but not here) -- unless it happened to be a particular church in Nfld that held parish records.

Nfld wasn't part of Canada until 1949, so unfortunately none of these people will appear in the 1911 census of Canada, e.g.

yes and all those name in the Vail family I have in my tree I dont know if my info is right though its word of mouth told to me by my mother... Walters father is Joseph.... Joseph suppose to have married five time and he had a sister.....and my grandmother Irene Lena Young had brothers and sisters Ambros, James, Florence, Mildred and Irene's father was called Herbert all this info I have is all so word of mouth told to me by my mother x :-)

Could this be Walter? Are they from Newfoundland like your other thread?

only my grandmother she was born on the 30th may 1916 and I guessed my grandfather death for what my mother told me she told me my grandfather passed away six months after my sister was born which would of been around 1970 :-)

Do you know when your grandparents were born ?

Looking for relative in Canada.

Ive already found my Cousin but I know there's more of my family out there as my Grandparents Walter and Irene wasn't an only child both of them had brothers or sisters or both.
