Hi, I have been in contact with someone in Scotland who is trying to find out further information on their family. An Jane Elizabeth Copland married a Thomas Mackie in Scotland, they were said to have traveled to Calgary where he was Police Chief. I would really like to be able to write back to this person with a little bit of information on his Canadian relatives - anyone have any ideas, suggestions or researching the above family? Patricia in Northwestern Alberta.

Can someone please send some Data the town of TUXFORD in Canada Bob Tuxford on Rtuxford@aol.com

I'll bet that the Reynolds-Alberta Museum at Wetaskiwin, Alberta could answer your questions about the Lethbridge-built Case automobile. They are a large transportation museum. Their web page is at http://www.gov.ab.ca/mcd/mhs/ram/ram.htm and click on library - they seem to encourage such questions.

Hello List, I am seeking ANY information on my great uncle, HOWARD CASE who lived in LETHBRIDGE and also farmed in MANITOBA I have a newspaper article from entitled "HOWARD CASE COMMITS SUICIDE" from one of the Lethbridge Newspapers which Marilyn Brown, a very kind lady who lives in Lethbridge, sent me, and she has also managed to find where he was buried and that he owned the first Auto Manufacturing Company in Lethbridge in 1907. It only produced one car. Do any auto enthusiasts know anything about this company and its one product? He is described by the newspaper as "a well known Old Timer" and "well known among the sporting fraternity of the city and district". I feel sure that there must have been an obituary notice after his funeral. His wife contested Howard's will and there was a court case in which my great grandmother was represented by a relative called CASE, who worked for the Chase Manhattan Bank. This relative won the court case and I feel that this too would have been reported somewhere. I live in Lancashire, England so do not have easy access to Canadian records. Can anyone tell me where I can obtain these reports or where I can find any information about Howard Case's will? This may enable me to find other members of the family.

Posted on: General Alberta<br>Canada Queries Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/Canada/Alberta/General/11583 Surname: HAMMARTON, HAMMARBERG, HAMMERBERG, NILSSON, HAMILTON, CRAM, FLYGARE ------------------------- I have been researching the above mentioned surnames and have quite a bit of information so far, and am willing to share or exchange info with any "cousins" who may be interested. I am descended from Andrew and Matilda, through my grandfather Carl August Hammerberg, but would love to get in touch with cousins descended from Andrew's brother Peter or their sister Laurina Margreta. Eric Andreas Hammarton (name changed to Andrew Hammarberg) and his wife Katrina Matilda Nilsson (known as Matilda) came to Canada from Sweden in 1907 with their two children. They settled west of Donalda. Matilda's sister Hulda Karolina Nilsson came to Canada with them. Hulda married Andrew's brother who was already living in the Duhammel/New Norway district. He was Karl Peter Hammarton (name changed to Hamilton): he came to the US with his first wife Marta (name changed to Myrtle; she died in 1906)in about 1894 and to the Duhamel district, Alberta Canada in 1897. Peter and Hulda had 4 children: Marie Helena Hamilton, Martha Christina Hamilton, Carl Anton Hamilton, and Bror Helge Hamilton. Hulda died about 1914/1917 of childbirth, and Peter moved to Port Hammond, BC where he died in 1925. Laurina Margreta Hammarton, who was the sister of Peter and Andrew, died in Sweden shortly after her husband Johan Jakob Johansson Flygare. Their 4 surviving children eventually came to Canada (Frida Johanna Flygar born 02 February 1885 (married Dr. P.A. MacDonald) , Olga Margreta Flygar born 06 April 1886 {I have been in touch with Olga's daughter}, Johan Konrad Flygar (known as Conrad) was born on 28 May 1888 , and Jernis Erenus Flygar born 05 April 1894). The two boys apparently changed their last names to Johnson. I would also love to be in touch with their descendants

Greetings All. For all who have been waiting to see updated information on the MP Scoreboard I would ask you to have patience for a few more days. While I have sent many updated files to Global Genealogy for loading, I have just learned that Rick Roberts has had a recent death in the family. He expects to return to work shortly and will get the files loaded at that time. My sincere condolences go out to Rick and his wife Sandra. Gordon A.

Hi, I searched www.canada411.com, found this K Bakker in Edmonton, several M Bakkers in BC, Alberta and the other provinces, on Y. Bakker in Ontario. There are also lots of Pijpers, but no one with Pijper-Bakker. The tow daughters might have changed their name anyway. Although I think lawyers have to practice under the name they graduate with. I have some lawyer friends in Vancouver, BC., I'll get in touch with them and see what I can find out. Ines BAKKER, K 6077 35A AVE NW EDMONTON, AB T6L 1G7 (780) 469-9615 At 07:05 PM 5/28/01 -0600, J.
