James Christie is my gr. uncle on my mother's side. I am looking for more information on him, perhaps relatives in Winnipeg. He was b. 1870/1871 (calculated from the 1881 and 1891 census) in Bentinck Twp., Grey Co., Ontario. He was the s/o Alexander CHRISTIE and Sophia HAINER Christie. They had eight children - all born in Bentinck Twp. Two died very young and the rest lived to adulthood. James was the fifth child of the eight. His father's obituary of Mar. 1906 shows James and his younger sister, Margaret, as from Winnipeg. His mother's obit of Nov 1907 shows James as from Saskatchewan and Margaret from Winnipeg. Margaret's obit of Dec 1934 shows James as from Winnipeg and as a pallbearer at her funeral in Winnipeg. According to my calculations, James would have been about 64 years of age at that time. Unfortunately, I have no information as to his marital status, children, or type of occupation(s) he may have had. This is a bit lengthy but I'm hoping that it may trigger someone's memory. I know it's a long shot - but I would certainly appreciate any info anyone can provide. Thank you. Dick McElhoes

[email protected] Hi Edie, I missed whether you got an answer to your query but if not here is the email address for the legislative library which has copies of most (or all) of the Manitoba newspapers. You can ask them for a copy of the obit or write up. The charge is $5.00 a lookup which includes a photocopy if they find anything.

John Henry (Jack) Reid married my mother Nellie Fletcher Brand around 1925. I'd like to find out when the Brands arrived in Wpg, I think it must have been around 1908, from Newcastle England. These were the William Twaddle Brands and there's a possibility that his parents, the John Wouldhave Brands were in Wpg before that time. As far as the Reids go, I have no idea as to my grandparents' names, am waiting a birth cert from VS, Wpg for that. My dad, Jack Reid was in the movie business almost from its beginning, working for United Artists. We move from Wpg to Calgary around 1941 or so when I was an infant. If any of this rings a bell, please email me. Thanks for reading. jd
