To all:- Although Gordon Watts has not been tabulating House of Commons petitions, and I have not been tabulating Senate petitions, we are keeping all of these safely. Members of House of Commons and Senate will not be back in Ottawa until Sept. 19th -- Gordon has been camping and I will be in Nova Scotia Aug. 14-25 (all questions to him during that period, please). Every weekend when families gather is a great time to add signatures and add to the total received to date and on hand. In Canada, download both House of Commons and Senate -- either French or English. Non-Canadians use the Non-Resident form for the Senate. One person may sign BOTH House of Commons and Senate petitions Please try to have more than ONE signature on a petition -- we are still hopeful either the Ontario Genealogical Society or Quebec Genealogical Society will out-number ones from Alberta!! I have been assured Ross Milne will use either his Model T Ford or the Massey-Ferguson tractor to haul the huge stack up to Parliament Hill -- do not worry -- photographers would love the picture.

Hi from NZ Does anyone know of a photographic studio in Vancouver in the 1920s called St Clair Studio. I have a photo from a great grandparent in NZ with St Clair embossed on it. Hoping someone can help Regards Julie Thomas NZ

Hi, Just a thought - Perhaps contacting the City of Vancouver Archive -would be of help. If the studio actually was in Vancouver - I am sure that they would have access to information . Do you know for sure - that the studio was in Vancouver - and not - New Westminster BC or other location in B.C. Perhaps Provincial Archive would be able to help.

Hello Julie 1920 was a decade or two before my time ;-) I did a bit of an online search and was unable to find any mention of a present St. Clair Studio photography studio Vancouver Area. I have several 'postcard' photos of family members that are ancient with no notation of where they were produced. Luckily my Gran wrote notations on the back of photos or beside them in her photograph album. Then there were the photos with no notations and impossible to remove from the album which made for a frustrating experience. (All this is reminding me that I have 12 CDs of scanned images from her albums that I 'ought' to get back to work on assembling for online and extended family (not necessarily in that order)) Sorry I wasn't more help.

Pam, Thank you so much for subbing me back in! I do not know what the heck I was doing! Shannah

Thank you to everyone who replied regarding Ross Bay Cemetery. Eva

Claudia My step-dad (since I was about 3-years-old) worked in various types of mining. The one I have clearest memory of was west of Sooke, Vancouver, Island, British Columbia (Port Renfrew?) in a copper mine. From the soot clinging to everything (I recall him bathing and changing outside, as one would note in a movie regarding the coal miners of Wales) and the residual in the crevices of his hands for years after the mine closed I do not doubt that there were skills that carried from one type of mining to another. Most labourers in mining would still have to be able to either assist or drill for blasting and then lug the ore to the carts for removal. More than that, to have the ability to stand confined spaces, dim lighting, danger of gases, constant danger of cave-ins, etc. Which would be why he was able to go without his constant companion; a lit cigarette; for hours when circumstances demanded. As a woodsman he would go without smoking while he was in the woods or fishing so that the animals would have less to note that a human was present. > Your family's experience brings to mind a question I have had for some time. > > Does anyone know whether people who worked as coal miners might also turn to > working in copper mines or to other kinds of mining?

Can any lister assist me in finding an S BRADLEY of Vancouver who visited St. Edburghs Church in Broadway ,Worcestershire, England in search of STEPHENS ancestry. I realise this is not strictly a rootsweb query but would appreciate some help. Judith Stichbury in New Zealand

Hallo all! A realtive om mine Johan (or John) Bergstrom (born 1888) worked in a mine in the Vancouver area ca 1910-1917. He married there before returning to Sweden.

George and all: Your family's experience brings to mind a question I have had for some time. Does anyone know whether people who worked as coal miners might also turn to working in copper mines or to other kinds of mining? I understand that each type of mining required different knowledge and skills, though perhaps a labourer's skills and experience were more readily transferable from one situation to another. Certainly this would be an advantage when the economic value of the mine changed, as it often did in Nanaimo's coal era. It is always said that Robert Dunsmuir, who became a mining baron and the richest man in British Columbia, was originally "a coal miner," as if he was a pick-and-shovel man, but the reality of his occupation was what we would call a technician, today. It required certification through study and examinations. Wouldn't it be more difficult to transfer this type of skill to extraction of completely different minerals? I have traced a few mining families that came from various parts of the world to British Columbia, and found coal miners stayed coal miners, but I am wondering whether others have found differently...found trained miners who moved from one type of mining to another. Knowing details of occupations of ancestors could certainly shorten the search, if you know or can find out where in the province certain occupations prevailed.

Re mines in the Van. area - 1910 - 1917. My father and grandfather were miners, and they worked at various mines on Vancouver Island, at Brittania Beach, at Coalmont outside of Princeton, B.C., and when my Dad was 5, in 1911, the family moved to Kellog, Idaho, to work in the mines there for a while.

Hi keisu Britannia Beach (copper mine) comes to mind right off the top.

http://www.islandnet.com/cgi-bin/ms2/rsd/search <<<< British Columbia Cemetery Finding Aid - WONDERFUL tool to find out where final rest is for extended family (great for leads on extended family as often husband of 'h/o', etc. is also listed. Will tell one and all by the burial plot and comparison, that there are, in fact, two persons buried in the same plot - at this time searches are done by surname only - I've already noted, as have several other family members from the westcoast of N.A. that our Great-Grandmother is listed by her married surname with the wrong spelling of her forename (changes are in the works thanks to a 3rd cousin in Washington State)

I was born and raised in Victoria have meandered through Ross Bay Cemetery long before I took up studying my family genealogy/history (many of my family members are buried there - check out the surname Goudie) - in my mind, Ross Bay Cemetery is found easiest by driving/walking along Dallas Road (by the seawall that is so often called "Ross Bay Cemetery Seawall" during the storms which send waves over the road keep looking across the road that is part of Ross Bay Cemetery) I did a check online with http://canada411.sympatico.ca/eng/business.html "Ross Bay Cemetery" and got two answers - one was already posted as getting a return to sender. I invite anyone to find information online that disputes what was posted between the two emails which are quoted in this reply. > Ross Bay Cemetery IS located on Fairfield Road but maybe the office handling > the records is on Cook Street.

Marla and all: Yes, that's right, the City Park office that handles this kind of query is tucked away, inside Beacon Hill Park, reached from the Cook Street side. It's not part of the cemetery at all, but has records. There is also a tiny Cemetery Office, just inside Ross Bay Cemetery, off Fairfield Road, but there often isn't anyone there, as this is just used by the staff who keep up the grounds. I don't think they generally answer questions by telephone. But they have ALL the records in their original form in the little cemetery office... big old ledgers, held in a huge old fashioned safe, and if you visit the cemetery and can find the Supervisor or one of the other staff out cutting grass or watering or pruning, you can usually get someone to look up a burial and direct you to the spot. The burial registers and indexes in the Parks office are on microfilm, and they will take a telephone query and get back to you in a day with the answers. But I don't know if they can tell you the names of other persons in the same burial plot -- don't know if the Plot Books have been microfilmed.
