    3. Hello all, i'm looking for information for my mother family and have hit a wall. The hard facts are from the 1901 canada census http://automatedgenealogy.com/census/View.jsp?id=110148&highlight=28&desc=1901+Census+of+Canada+page+containing+Philip+Gates Gates Philip Head b May 1 1862 France Immigrated 1868 Naturalized 1884 Gates(nee Glover) Sarah Wife b Aug 5 1859 Ireland Immigrated 1886 Gates Charles Henry Son b Apr 17 1894 Canada My mother claims Philip was born in Alsace - Larraine and went to Philadelphia, he met Sarah there and married. Philip had brothers and a sister also in Philadelphia. Sarah was a maid for a wealthy Philadelphia family. Then they immigrated to Canada. I have look on the web for any in for Philip and can't seem to find anything else. I have queried the Castle Garden website but have had no luck, perhaps the record hasn't been added to the database yet. Any info greatly appreciated, you may reply to this post or to fill_eh&yahoo.ca &=@ thanks Phil
