Posted on: Manitoba, Canada Queries Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/Canada/Manitoba/General/2359 Surname: Cockrill, Smith ------------------------- Looking for information on James Arthur Cockrill b 1866 d 1933 Vancouver BC. Married Sarah Elizabeth Smith in Manitoba about 1902 - any information is truly appreciated.

I left Winnipeg about 16 years ago. At that time, Good Street still existed, and numbering went lower than 236. However, I would doubt that the same building would still exist at that site, since it is prime property, and not far north of the Assiniboine River. If it does still exist as it was in 1901, it would have to be a brick or stone building of high quality construction, and would likely be converted to offices or apartments.

it would depend on the route taken. it could be by small boat to Thunder Bay then by either train or ox cart, wagon train etc to Manitoba. it could be to the Dakota's and north by train to Winnipeg or just might be by small boat but not likely. larry dodds, searching DODDS, ECCLES COOK, MCLEOD, BAILEY, HALL, LAWRENCE, MARTIN, WATSON, call 1-204-785-2531, e-mail - ldodds@mb.sympatico.ca -----Original Message----- From: marquis@powersurfr.com <marquis@powersurfr.com> To: CAN-MANITOBA-L@rootsweb.com <CAN-MANITOBA-L@rootsweb.com> Date: Saturday, December 02, 2000 10:51 AM Subject: [CAN-Manitoba] EARLY TRAVEL to Manitoba >Hi: I would also be interested in replies to this message. > >John > >At 12:04 AM 12/2/00 -0600, jleech4 wrote: >>hello all I am hoping someone out there can answer this query for me . >When my gr.father came to Canada from England in 1884 he landed in Ontario >and then on to Manitoba.

Christopher APPLETON and his sister Jane E. APPLETON are listed in the 1901 census as living at 236 Good street. Does this street address still exist?? Christopher's occupation is listed as Foreman N.P. What does N.P. stand for? William Henry APPLETON and his family followed his brother to Winnipeg about 1905. Does anyone know anything about the APPLETON'S in Winnipeg. I know where they came from in England, and know where William Henry went. I am at a loss to know what happened to Christopher and Jane Elizabeth. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi Lois, I subscribe to the Ancestry.com newsletter and if there are any listings of Manitoba Censuses I send them along to the list. I have not seen any from the North but if they magically appear, I will indeed pass them along! BTW, none of my "people" were here until after 1901, so they are not of any use to me either!
