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. Anyone that might know which mines that existed in the Vancouver area at that time? Are there also any chance of finding the marriage records for him and his wife ? greetings Hakan Bergstrom Brussels, Belgium

Hi Hakan, I looked at the marriages in the online indexes, because that will probably tell you where he worked, but can't find a Bergstrom marriage with that first name. How about this one (same record- bride had two last names) 4 Groom Name: JOHN BECKSTROM Bride Name: SELMA CHRISTINA JOHANSON Event Date: 1910 8 18 (Yr/Mo/Day) Event Place: VANCOUVER Reg.
