    1. [MBWINNIPEG-L] MITCHELL and a touch of McCLUNG
    2. S. Arundel Ross
    3. Judi Duncan - I have two books about Stonewall, neither of them indexed. "ROCKWOOD ECHOES, 90 Years of Progress, 1870-1960" printed by Derksen Printers, Steinbach, Manitoba in 1960. We have it because my Great-grandfather was the founder of Stonewall; in 1876 began to give free lots to those who would build a house at least 18' X 24', and 1 ½ storeys. Unfortunately someone has dropped this book in the bathtub, and in separating the pages I've mutilated a few, but a quick scan gives the following bits of information: Mitchell, Irwin L., born in Stonewall in 1882, son of Andrew R. Mitchell, a contractor and occasional Trade Instructor at Stony Mountain penitentiary, and wife Jane; arrived in Manitoba in 1871. Stonewall Masonic Lodge, Number 12 G.R.M.: "the first meeting was held on April 29, 1880. On the Charter, which now hangs in the Stonewall Masonic Temple, appears the following names: Angus Fraser, Worshipful Master; A.R. Mitchell, Senior Warden; ...." Growth: "Early carpenters were ... Mitchell & Sutherland ..." Fire Protection: Purchased its first equipment (torn bit) .. Andrew Mitchell, Fire Chief .(torn bit) ...several spectacular blazes ... And in the note under early schools (Stonewall School District #108): "School registers are available from 1885 and the notations on them reveal items of interest." >From the other book, "Stonewall, Turning a Century" 1978, Interlake Publishing Ltd., Stonewall, Manitoba: "The Stonewall Masonic Lodge #12 .... listed on its original charter .. and among the early Masters of this Lodge were A.R.Mitchell .." "Early Carpenters: ... Andrew Mitchell.." "The two-storey [wooden] building known as the Masonic Hall was built by Andrew Mitchell in the 1880's. The ground floor of the building served as a junior school in 1888. In later years the building was used as a residence." There's a photo of the building. P.38: photo of the Gunn quarry kiln, first fired in May 1900. "The trestle for the cars to draw up rock was built by Andrew Mitchell." P.10 has a photo of a turn-of-the-century Stonewall Bicycle Club, and Irwin Mitchell is one of the members shown. A Ruth Mitchell appears in the photo of the 1923 Grade Two class. A short extra note: my father's sister, Margo Ross, was recalling stories about her widowed grandmother who always, in Margo's memory, wore full mourning outfits - black dresses that scraped the ground, black caps. During the early 1900's the Ross family had a summer cottage on Lake Winnipeg and Mrs McClung, Nellie's widowed mother-in-law, summered in the cottage next door. She also wore full mourning. Little Margo thought that was a uniform signifying grandmotherhood. Maude Bowen Island, BC

    3. I am looking for William and Annie Fields who owned or opperated a service station outside Winnipeg in the early half of this century. They had at least 3 ch: Bertha, Laura and a son. William and my grandfather were brothers. There was another brother as well named Alfred and no one knows what happened to him. These are the missing section of our family. My mother (Fred's Daughter ) is 93 and she remembers Annie being to Cumb.Co. Nova Scotia, for a visit. Any help greatly appreciated. Eleanor

    3. Karen: Thanks for the info on Adamson/McKenzie. Unfortunately, these aren't the ones I'm looking for. Which doesn't surprise me, as it was a long shot anyway. The Adamson I'm looking for is James Adamson of Edinburgh, Scotland, m. Margaret Duncan. Moved to Winnipeg probably between 1910 and 1913. They are reputed to have had 14 children, including Anthony Duncan, James, Robert, Alexander, Herbert, Arthur, Grace, Jean, and Meg. The McKenzie is Duncan McKenzie, m. Wilhelmina Fraser, father of Thomas Duncan McKenzie (my grandfather) and Katherine "Kate" McKenzie, wife of Alexander Adamson noted above. Duncan McKenzie was a plumber, and is noted as living in Winnipeg in Lovell's Directory of Manitoba and Northwest Territories for 1900-1901 Thanks again Patrick Nagle
