Hello Raynona, Minnedosa is in the westman region of the province 210 kilometres northwest of Winnipeg at the junction of Provincial Trunk Highway 10 and the Yellowhead Highway 16. There's a great web site at Multimap.com that would show you where this is. Basswood is only about 20 km north west of Minnedosa. I checked the two most recent library books I have and those names weren't in there.

http://www.gov.mb.ca/chc/leg-lib/ll_newspapers.html Hello Pat, Happy New Year If you don't get an answer to your look-up request check out the above site. It is for the Legislative Library in Winnipeg and they have microfilm copies of many old newspapers. Seeing as you have the date of death you can ask them to look up and copy the obit if there is one Joseph Dale. They charge $5.00 which if very minimal I think. They will look through a month of you aren't sure of the date but won't try it if you are too vague on details - like he died in 1906 nothing else. They copied one for me last year and I had it within a little over a week of contacting them. Great service.

This is my first posting to this list. Could you please answer a few questions for me. 1. Where are the mines located ( say after 1870's)? 2. I understand that some people from Cornwall, England came to Manitoba came either up from Michigan or over form Cornwall,England. Is this correct? 3. I am looking for family members by the last name of ROBERTS. Just learned about this yesterday so have very little information to go on. This is it. ( The area in Cornwall they would come from would be St. Agnes, Perranzabuloe, and St. Newlyn East) Look forward to your replies and being on this list. Thank-you Sheila
