My very best wishes to all Canadians on this July 1st Canada Day!

I am looking for descendants of William WALKER and Jane MAGOFFIN. William Wallace was born March 10, 1835 and died May 18, 1911 in Neepawa, Manitoba. Jane Magoffin was born May 1, 1836 and died February 15, 1904 in Neepawa, Manitoba. Their children were John A. Walker, born August 21, 1864 William J. Walker, born July 16, 1866 Robert S. Walker, born March 10, 1868 Sarah J. Walker, born October 18, 1869, married Robert John Wells, September 2, 1903 Thomas H. Walker, born April 19, 1871 Elizabeth Sophia Walker, born March 28, 1873, married Walter Pattison George W. Walker, born February 28, 1875 Allen F. Walker, born April 26, 1878 Frederick A. Walker, born September 14, 1880 Would be interested in hearing from anyone descended from any of the above children of William Walker and Jane Magoffin. Camille Magoffin

I am looking for information on the following families - GAMBLE - c 1900 GLOVER - c 1890 WILSON - c 1890 MANN - c 1870 These families settled in Ontario after emigrating from N. Ireland and Scotland. Some of the children later settled in Manitoba. Does anyone see any connections to their research? Betty - in Ontario

Hi Betty, I have a James Goodfellow Mann emigrating from Scotland to Victoria, BC. I do not know at this point in my research whether he had a slight sojourn in Ontario and/or Manitoba. He was born 07 Jul 1841 in Scotland and died in Victoria 17 Jun 1913. Does this relate to anything you are looking at/for? Neil Lensen Use Bi-Tron products...

Would someone check the above 1945, 1946, 1947, 1948 City Directory for the name Lewis Fielding Schofield and his wife Ella Jane. He received a land grant in 1920 and died there in 1948. He is probably listed in directories from 1920, too I would like any information about them. Marita in California

Ditto to Andy's reply. A delayed birth registration gave me Delayed Registration of a Live Birth, Declaration of Informant (a brother gave this), and a transcribed copy of a German family bible entry that listed the registrant. They seem to give you all documents that relate to the event you request, all included in the one fee.

Hello All This is my first toe in the water with Canadian research. After nearly 4 years searching I have finally found a trace of my KING family who emigrated from Kent UK to Winnipeg some time between 1901 and 1911. On a Manitoba vital stats website I have found a record of the death of one of the daughters of this family. From the website I can order by snail mail a copy of the record but have been advised by another researcher that there are two options available, the death certificate and the death registration. Can someone tell me what is the difference between these two, which would give me the most information. Regards Debbie Wild DUBAI U.A.E. www.wildfamily.info

Debbie, A recent $12.00 copy of a death record from the Manitoba Archives contained 2 pages . (1917) Official Notice of Death had vital data, informants name. Medical Certificate of Death had cause, duration, doctors signature, undertakers signature and place of burial.

Lewis F. Scholfield b abt 1860 no place received a Land grant NW Q 32 Township 35 range 27 W1. I have copy of township map Swan River MB in 1920. I have his obituary for his death 17 May 1948. in Swan River. His wife was Ella Jane Howard b 1869 Angus-Essa Simco Co. Ontario. She had a child Nellie May Howard, out of wedlock in 1879. Nellie is my grandmother I don't know where Lewis and Ella married. I wonder if he was first in Winnipeg before or after they were married and later moved to Swan River. 1919 Ella was named beneficary in her half sister's estate and her name is given as Ella Schofield I am seeking any information on he and his wife. Did they have other children. Did he have children from a previous marriage/ I haven't been able to find them on the 1901 Fed census. Ella is on the 1881 in Toronto Ontario living with her father and her daughter Nellie.. I haven't found either Lewis or Ella on the 1891 or the 1901 Census I would like their marriage Any entries on City Directories or phone books. Census showing Lewis 1891 1901 Census showing Ella 1891 1901 thanks Marita

Hello John If you have a map of Manitoba find Oak Bluff which is south and east a bit from Winnipeg. Highway 2 runs west from there. Go about 9 miles west and 3 miles south should put you on the spot.
