I'm new to the list. Here's the information I have. Joseph Lockridge, 1792-1884, and his wife Elizabeth, 1802-1884, settled in Tamworth, Ontario, in 1846. They farmed Conc 9, lot 8, township Sheffield, County Addington, nine children, one of these being Joseph, 1830-1900. He married Isabella Girvin March 27, 1860 and they lived on a farm in East Wasanosh, Huron County, Ontario, until moving to Manitoba. Before arriving in Canada, they lived in Carnmoney, Antrim, Ireland, and before that in Ayr, Scotland. It was on their change to Manitoba that the surname changed from Lockridge to Lockeridge." They had 14 children. Joseph, my grandfather, was born in 1867. Married Ada Whalley. Two children, Ellen, my mother, and Walter. Joseph and Ada both died quite young. Isabella Girvin was born about 1840 in Carrickfergus, Ireland, and came to Canada on a sailing ship (six weeks journey) at about 19 years old. Met Joe Lockeridge who also had come out from Ireland. Isabella died when she was about 78. They lived in Bethany, Manitoba. What I am trying, without any success at all, is where and when Joseph and Ada died and where they are buried. My mother was born in Brandon. The family farmed in several locations around Bethany. Nancy Butterfield in WA, USA

Deborah, It would probably be best for your friends to get on lists of their own. Have they done any name searches or tried genealogy sites? A good place to start: Canadian Genealogy Information: http://www.generations.on.ca/genealogy.htm Bill's Favorite Genealogy Sites: http://www.ctol.net/~bill/clinks.html National Archives of Canada: http://www.archives.ca/oo/oo_e.htm Shipping records, birth, marriage, baptismal or death certificates are a good source of info.

I understand that there were some places near Winnipeg in which immigrants may have stayed for a bit, resting up, before heading west. May have even cleared immigration there... Does anyone know if this is so and where this might have been and if there are any of these immigration records available someplace for checking Nancy Cheney, WA, USA

Hi Everyone... I thought it about time that I reposted the surnames that I am researching, listed at the bottom of this e-mail. A SPECIAL NOTE: I am searching for a specific person... her name was SHIRLEY SALES, she would have been born between 1920 and 1927 in British Columbia, Alberta or Saskatchewan to my Grandfather, Thomas Herbert SALES (born Oxted Surrey, England 1875) and his second wife... who's name is unknown to any of the family members. The only information I have on Shirley is a photo of her at two years old that is addressed to Daddy, from this photo and information regarding my grandfather I have been able to estimate the years when she could have been born. I would like nothing more than to unite my mother and uncle with their previously unknown sister so please if you know of a Shirley who was born between these years ask her what her maiden name was.... If anyone would like to see the photo just ask and I'll send you the scan of it. Thank you so much...

I need information about homesteading in the Hudson Bay area of Eastern Saskatchewan. I have trawled the internet and the library, and even spent hours in (on) Canada's virtual museum site trying to get the details I need. Do anyone here have anything on the legal aspects of homesteading in the 1940's? I need to confirm that returning servicemen were entitled to a land grant (as I understand my father and his brothers rec'd); the size of the grant, I have 160 acres; the period that the holder had to start farming the land; how much land had to be cultivated in the allotted time; and if the land could legally be assigned to another person, particularly to a non-related female. I am also looking for information about how rural justice was administered in the 1920's or 30's. Any information would help, such a old court documents, judgments, etc. Maybe old newspaper reports. Anything that you think could be useful, could you send me a scan, please. I am also looking for authentic information about dress fabrics, the uses and colours of parachute silk, make-up and hair care products in the 40's! I have managed to dredge up some of this by talking to elderly women. You can get some lovely anecdotal information by engaging folk in chat about the 'good old days'. The problem with this is that sometimes the info is conflicting and I believe that some of my informants are confusing the 50's with the 40's. For example, was hair lacquer available in the mid 40's, or did it arrive in the 50's? Thanks, Patricia Sherman

Is there something odd going at Rootsweb? I download my e-mails and within seconds, the dial-up connection reactivates itself turning un-read Digests into outgoing e-mails with an attachment.

Edmund George Robertson (from Norfolk) & his wife Ettie nee Barlow emigrated to Brandon, Manitoba, about 1908. She died back in Norfolk in 1943.

DORIS married a Crowther and had 7 Crowther grandchildren. Could be still in Manitoba. Can anyone put me in touch with any of their descendants? Thank you. Gordon Barlow

I recently discovered that I was related to the late Rev. Msgr. J. Kormylo (possibly he spelled his name CORMYLO). His church was Sts. Peter and Paul Ukrainian Catholic Church in St. Boniface Manitoba. If anyone has any information on Father Kormylo or is related to him please contact me. My grandmother Ann Antonick (nee Kormylo) was his aunt. I do not know if he had any sisters or brothers, etc. Thank you - Noreen
