Hi everyone, Can someone do a cemetery transcript search of the RM of Park & of Portage la Prairie and see if you can find a Raymond Larocque b. 1868 and his wife Philomene?

Hello Listers, I have the following book on loan from the library and will do lookups from it. "East of the Mountains" Eden-Birnie Story Wards 2 and 5 Rural Municipality of Rosedale, Manitoba 1877-1984 ISBN 0-88925-538-5 This book only covers the area of ward 2 and ward 5 and was written to celebrate their centennial. They are located north of Neepawa. For a more detailed and comprehensive history of municipality they refer you to the Rosedale Centennial History Book. It has no index.

Just as an aside, the next of kin is the next descendant who is still living. I sent for my husband's grandmother's death registration and put in the appropriate place "grandson" and signed my husband's name. This was for a 1934 registration. I received it. Shirley <snip>

Hi Darlene - Perhaps it depends on the mood and/or the level of the bureaucrat who is passed the application to process. B.C. has a pretty easy website to navigate and some basic info but of course they want to sell it - and the prices are astronomical. It is too bad that the provinces could not all get their act together with one format for info - maybe that will happen after the Canadian Geneological group gets underway.

When the application asked for "address" I put Heaven and how long there, and I got the certificate. Tish

Freda: Thanks for your very informative and genteel reply. It just shows how different the so-called "privacy" practices and policies can be from one province to another. In retrospect, I do think were just plain lucky here, in the sense that theOntario government rushed in twenty years ago where nowadays it would fear to tread. In other words, if the government here were now considering, for the first time, how to deal with BMD records, we would face all sorts of bumps and obstacles. Your comments on the Alberta system were helpful too - I'll know now what "some kind soul" would have to deal with if I were to ask help with a lookup, and govern my request accordingly. The written exchanges that you e-mailers have had in the last week about local history books alerted me to watch out for Western materials in the bookstores and flea markets here. Occasionally some amazing stuff about early Western homesteading shows up in garage sales. I picked up a nice hardcover history of the Battlefords (Sask), published about 1955, in a neighbour's recycling box last year. I'll surely keep you good folks in mind henceforth! Onward and Upward! Max ----- Original Message ----- From: "Freda" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Tuesday, January 21, 2003 11:01 AM Subject: Re: [CAN-Manitoba] re: death certs Hi Max - Manitoba has the toughest regs for accessing certificates. In Alberta we can go to a local registry office and they will pull up the required certificate (provided it has been put into the system). As long as you can give reasonable reason and relationship they don't fuss. They do cost $25.00 each. But there is also a time frame in which the information can be accessed - a specific number of years must pass before the info is made available. Ontario is much further ahead in this but then there are more of you as well. I have been able to find out quite a lot of info of late 1800's and was surprised to find so much online. As an afterthought - getting permission from next-of-kin for an 1880 certificate could prove somewhat difficult - I wonder if the person who thought that one up ever took the time to think that if we knew who the next of kin was we wouldn't need their dubious services. I really think that many of these government departments were caught totally unaware by the onslaught of people seeking family members.

Sandy, I just found another book that might interest you. The R.M. of Reynolds includes Richer East, Ste. Rita, Molson, Rennie, Hadashville, Prawda, McMunn and East Braintree. The book is called "Pioneer History of Glenn, East Braintree and McMunn" written by the Pioneer History Book Committee in 1989. Amicus #9943972. This book is in the Winnipeg Library system.

Forgive an Easterner for jumping into the fray - I'm just anxious to learn something. How come the government in Manitoba requires permission from next-of-kin to get a certificate dating from the 1880s? And you have to pay for one? Does this mean that the Manitoba gvoernment didn't let the Latter Day Saints organization microfilm the BMD certificates and make them available? I ask because almost any of the LDS research centres in towns and cities here have a complete set of BMD certificates on microfilm for Ontario, accessible and free to all, covering the period 1869-1932 (with a year's worth of film added each succeeding year). No questions asked, no permissions needed to transcribe or photocopy. I do realize that not everyone in the western provinces, where distances (and increasingly the price of gas!) are certanly factors to deal with, can get to an LDS centre easily if they're not in an urban area . But still, for many of you, I would have thought the nearest local LDS centres would be preferable to dealing with a remote government office. As I say, I'm simply curious, and also sympathetic. Doing family history can be tough enough as it is. Forgive me if I "just don't understand the situation".

Darlene, My Winnipeg death certificate was for 1894 ... a great uncle. I told them on the application that I was as close as any as next of kin for he died unmarried and without children. All his siblings and nephews/nieces also dead. The death certificate says he died of Typhoid ... young man only 28. Not much other information. An accompanying letter asked that confidentiality be maintained. Yes, Maui is sunny and beautiful today but cold ... staying in the 70's when we usually have highs in the 80's.

Sandy, I can't seem to find a book on Hadashville or the R.M. of Reynolds for you other than the one you already have. The Reynolds Municipality also mentions the Brokenhead area so I'm wondering if the book "They stopped at a Good Place: a history of the Beausejour, Garson, & Tyndall area of Manitoba 1875-1981" by Michael Czuboka would cover Hadashville. I also noticed on the R.M. of Reynolds web site that there is a place to contact the municipal office through email. Maybe someone in the office would know if there was a book made.

Hi Max - Manitoba has the toughest regs for accessing certificates. In Alberta we can go to a local registry office and they will pull up the required certificate (provided it has been put into the system). As long as you can give reasonable reason and relationship they don't fuss. They do cost $25.00 each. But there is also a time frame in which the information can be accessed - a specific number of years must pass before the info is made available. Ontario is much further ahead in this but then there are more of you as well. I have been able to find out quite a lot of info of late 1800's and was surprised to find so much online. As an afterthought - getting permission from next-of-kin for an 1880 certificate could prove somewhat difficult - I wonder if the person who thought that one up ever took the time to think that if we knew who the next of kin was we wouldn't need their dubious services. I really think that many of these government departments were caught totally unaware by the onslaught of people seeking family members.

Freda, I agree with you on the question about the next of kin !! On the application there is a space for you to give an explanation why you couldn't get consent from the next of kin and I stated "next of kin unknown". I wonder if that is going to give me a problem.??

Hi Listers, Would anyone know if there is a heritage book for the Hadashville (east of Winnipeg) area? I purchased a small (106 pages) booklet in this town when we passed through several years ago called; "A Packsack of Seven Decades" published by the Hadashville Women's Institute, that describes the history of the town and surrounding towns (the District of Reynolds). But I believe the heritage books are large books with individual family stories. Would anyone have more information about this area or be able to direct me to books that do? Better yet, is anyone else on this list researching families (such as Mr. & Mrs. Charles Hadash) from Hadashville?

I'm not surprised you couldn't get the book in Neepawa. They were only printed once in the 1980's, and almost by order. From what I can find, almost all heritage books are only available through secondhand book stores. In fact, many stores don't even like to carry these books because they are hard to market, except through the internet. I found the one on Beausejour in a tiny town on Vancouver Island and snatched it up because it only cost $10 and I figured that sooner or later someone would want it.
