Hi to all once more after a long absence, This time I am chasing SHORTELL from Sussex England. I am looking for any family by the name of JOHNSON The mother was Nora SHORTELL who married Carl Johnson and I think they lived in VERMILLION or VERMILION so I am hoping this city is in BC If not could anyone please advise me where it may be Nora was the daughter of Arthur E SHORTELL born in Hastings Sussex, England came to Canada with her parents and siblings Iva, Emily who married Mr W HARDSTAFF, Herbert and from what I can gather Norah is buried in the Mountain View Cemetery with Carl her spouse Time frame I do not know I only know this from the BCCFA web site after me hunting all day plus a lister in Los Angles who put me on the right trail. My question is .. Is there any one who can help me out with details as in Cemetery / burial dates. perhaps photos of the grave and if I can stretch the friendship a death notice as I would very much like to find any cousins on this line as I have been hunting for over 15 years on the SHORTELL names and not finding anything. The Shortell family came to LLOYDMINSTER and from my googling all day it seems that some are buried there. My interest in the family is thru Norah's mother BERTHA NEWNHAM as I am trying to research the family of Newnham which the Nixey fellow was part of and is buried in BC. I hope I have been clear enough if not I can explain in full and I hope that there is anyone who maybe able to help Many thanks Elaine -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.
