Hi Alene, Matsqui, Sumas and Abbotsford are neighbouring places. Aldergrove, Langley and Surrey are just to the west of there. They're all in the Lower Fraser Valley. Some of the old registrations show places which were separate then but now are just areas in a bigger municipality. For example, Murrayville which is now part of Langley. Does anyone have a good URL for finding out about these places? Pam Alene Vogel wrote: > > I'm puzzled by locations in B.C.
