Hello a great Aunt of mine Martha VOGEL born 1895 in Hosmer South Dakota, married Allan LAWRENCE born c1895 Maple Creek Saskatchewan Canada and had 3 children. According to my grandad Martha died not long after the birth of her 3rd child in July 1919 in Maple Creek and Allan went to live in Carrington Foster County North Dakota with his 3 children (names unknown though all believed to have been born in North Dakota) I wonder if it is possible for someone to see if they can find Allan on a North Dakota US census for me? With thanks Danielle

Don't see Allan in the U.S., but then I never did find the Vogel family in 1900. ;) Perhaps someone else might have better luck with Allan?

Thank you to you both for looking though dont think that is my family. I thought it was a long shot and feel there is more to this story than meets the eye, Martha was 23 when she died in Maple Creek Sask, though it is believed her husband and 3 children were still in North Dakota. I will see if I can find an obit for Martha that may shed more light. Danielle
