I was born in California where I am still living. My father was raised in High River, Alberta after migrating there prior to 1908 from Glengarry, Ontario with his parents and siblings. My research is almost at a standstill without the release of the census data from Alberta from 1911. My grandmother died in February 1912 in High River which would be the last census information ever available for her. Five of my father's younger siblings would also be listed in the 1911 census (all now deceased)having been born after the April 1901 census for Kenyon Township, Glengarry. The 1930 cenus for the USA will be released this year. This is in contrast to the "battle" having to be waged by my Canadian cousins and those of you on this list for the release of the census.

Good Morning, Walter:- The last available census is the 1901 release --and very possibly, depending on dates of birth, your father and siblings would be on that. There is Census Department where one may obtain information at $$$ per person -- but we are asking for FREE release -- if some company made a CD of Queens County, Nova Scotia, I might be the first to buy it. We do have Non-Resident petitions, but with Senator Lorna Milne's S-12 Bill in Third Reading stage, debate and vote, would you like to send a letter to her? Start the letter The Hon. Lorna Milne, Senator Senate of Canada Ottawa, ON K1A 0A4 Simply start the letter "Dear Senator Milne:-" add your ADDRESS Letters may be read in Senate but NOT the name. Check http://www.globalgenealogy.com/Census/Score1.htm#AB Check for MP of area which includes High River. Contact him/her. Muriel M.
