I've rejoined this list after having made some good progress in the research of my grandfather's time spent in Winnipeg in 1914, and from 1919 to 1921. Having received some wonderful assistance here last year, I wonder whether I might ask for some more help, please? Harold Stewart MORRIS married Laura RICHARDSON at 3 p.m. on Saturday afternoon 4 October 1919. My grandfather Leslie PAYNE (1892-1975) and one Florence KING were best man and bridesmaid respectively, and the bride was given away by her uncle Mr. T.B. EVANS. After the ceremony - according to the Winnipeg Free Press, kindly extracted by Lynn Anderson - the bridal party returned to the home of Mrs. T.B. Evans, aunt of the bride, where they were photographed: http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~brett/payne/cllpayne_1l.htm Stewart MORRIS and my grandfather probably knew each other due to the fact that they worked together at Eaton's Department Store. It is also possible that they had fought together - in the Canadian Machine Gun Corps - in France & Belgium during the First World War. Laura and Stewart MORRIS subsequently sent photos of themselves at their house at 261 Polson Avenue, Winnipeg, to my grandfather after he had returned to Derbyshire, England in 1921. I would be interested in any information about the families of these people in Winnipeg, please, and am particularly keen to track down any descendants. I know, for example, that Stewart & Laura MORRIS were living at 261 Polson Avenue in 1921, but how long did they stay in Winnipeg? If someone with access to Directories of the period would have the time to check subsequent years, I would be very grateful. Who was Florence KING? Was she related to the bride, perhaps? Did she marry and have children in Winnipeg? Thank you very much. --- Regards and best wishes, Brett Payne Tauranga, New Zealand researching the history of the 6th Brigade Canadian Machine Gun Company http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~brett/cmgc/cmgc.html

Hi Listers, I am new to the list - live in Queensland Australia and am seeking help with two twigs on the family tree. My husband's maternal great grandparents emigrated to Australia from Aberdeen Scotland in 1886. GGrandmother FINDLAY was the eldest of 7 children to David GRAY and Christian BOOTH. Her sister Mary GRAY (born 1871) married William MINTY in 1896 in Scotland, and they emigrated to Canada sometime afterwards, settling in Winnipeg. Brother Robert GRAY (born 1878) also emigrated to Canada. I had not bothered to research these people up until now, but having looked at the wonderful Archives of Canada site where the attestation papers for members of the C.E.F. WW1 are listed, I have found where Robert GRAY enlisted at Winnipeg 9 Nov 1915 into the 179th Batt'n C.E.F. (Cameron Highlanders of Canada) and William MINTY enlisted in Toronto 29 January 1916 into the 134th Overseas Battalion C.E.F. (48th Highlanders). I have a date of death for Mary MINTY (21 April 1930), but am unsure of where she died. Also unsure if William and Robert returned safe from WW1. Any help/suggestions welcome as to how to find out more about these people. Better still, contact with family members would be wonderful. Regards Bev
