My grandparents, Fred and Rosina Clarke came to Miniota from Cornwall in 1904. After WWI they moved to Winnepeg where Fred worked for Eatons as a watchmaker until his retirement in the mind 1940s. They moved to Oregon to be near their sons who had come to Oregon in the mid 1920s. Both Fred and Roseina died in Vancouver, B.C. while visiting their daughter who lived there. Stanley R.

I understand that family of mine settled in Manitoba. Names I am researching are: ROBERTS, PARNELL, BEARD, DOCKING, to name a few.
