Hi Debbie: Are you also subscribed to the Alberta Rootsweb list?? If not, you might want to join that as Stratcona County is in Alberta, not BC. BC is the province next door to Alberta but it's sort of like asking on a Michigan List for info on New York, you'd be better off likely on the list for that locale. Here are the subscribing instructions for the Alberta List: # Subscribing. Clicking on one of the shortcut links below should work, but if your browser doesn't understand them, try these manual instructions: to join ALBERTA-L, send mail to [email protected] with the single word subscribe in the message subject and body. To join ALBERTA-D, do the same thing with [email protected] * Subscribe to ALBERTA-L * Subscribe to ALBERTA-D (digest) Same with your cemetery query, you'd be better to ask that of someone living in Alberta. Here is the Alberta Genweb project: http://www.rootsweb.com/~canab/ The Edmonton Branch of the Alberta Genealogy Society: http://www.agsedm.edmonton.ab.ca/index.html Alberta Family History Society: http://www.afhs.ab.ca/registry/ The Edmonton Public Library has 2 copies of the book, according to their website. Use their Ask a Librarian on-line service to see if they will look up the entry for you. Make sure you tell them you live in Michigan so that they will see there is no possibility of you coming into the library. Go to this page first and type in your e-mail address, click submit e-mail and then a page will come up where you can type in your request for the book lookup: http://www.talonline.ca/cgi-bin/aaq/c/post.pl?sector=2 The National Library of Canada has a copy of the book. I don't know if they can do Inter-Library Loans to the US or not but here is the info on the book which you can print out and take to your local library to see if you can get it from there: AMICUS No. 2485139 Monograph NLC COPIES: NL Stacks - FC3695 S75 R43 NL Stacks - FC3695 S75 R43 - Copy 2 Preserv - off site - FC3695 S75 R43 - Copy 3 - NL copy: Signed by author. - NO ILL NAME(S):*Redekop, Linda, 1943- Gilchrist, Wilfred, 1937- TITLE(S): Strathcona County : a brief history / Linda Redekop and Wilfred Gilchrist PUBLISHER: [Edmonton] : W.
