Well, Reg, it's information given to me by my late Grandmother, his wife. And my uncle and mother. But as to proof, nope! I'm wondering if he was RAISED at that address and born elsewhere, but I have absolutely no other information other than that he had a brother Thomas. My Grandfather came to Canada in 1912 to play Cricket and joined the Army here. From that date on, I can verify information. He and my Grandmother, Gertrude Freeman Rowe, were married on June 15, 1915, in London, when he was posted there. They settled in Canada. Thanks for any help you can give. Linda

Where did you get the info? Do you have proof that it is accurate? Reg

Scotlands People has not been of any help in tracing my Grandfather, who was born at 1 Rae Street in Stenhousemuir, Scotland, 1889. Does anyone have any other ideas? This is SO frustrating!! I've tried LDS as well. Thanks, Linda
