    1. [AVNE] STACPOOLE/HINE in Woods Point

    3. Hi Listers, I have just received a photo of a gravestone in Woods Point and it says: "ELIZABETH HINE (she is my 2x gr grandaunt) and her infant grandchildren Vera Abodina, Honor Marguerite STAGPOOLE and Victor Alexander" Unfortunately there are no dates. I have bits and pieces of information for the first two grandchildren. Apparently they were both 15 when they died which suggests that they were twins and it would make their birth date abt 1880. I believe that they were born in Woods Point and I also believe that their parents were John Goode STACPOOLE (Mine manager in Woods Point) and Ann HINE daughter of Elizabeth HINE. One little complication: John & Ann did not get married until 1882 -- 2 years after 1880 however ....... First of all, I am fascinated with their names and why did twin girls die in the same year --possibly the same time-- at age 15? I have no idea who Victor Alexander was. If anyone is doing research on the STACPOOLE or HINE families especially in Woods Point, I would love to hear from you to compare notes. I have much more data on their ancestors. Cheers, Ted LANNING, West Vancouver, BC CAN
