    2. Richard McElhoes

    3. Wendy - Does the Army record show his regiment, date & place of enlistment, residence address, next-of-kin, date & place of discharge? If the addresses are in Winnipeg, he could, perhaps, be listed in the City Directories of the period if the dates were known. If he was alive and living and/or working in Winnipeg in 1950's, it shouldn't be too hard to locate him (might even have spouse's name and his occupation) According to my arithmetic, his daughter was born about 1916. Was she born in Ireland or Canada. If in Canada, where?

    2. Wendy Grant

    3. Hello Dick, Many thanks for your email. Yes his army record says he enlisted in the fort Gary Horse on the 24th August 1914, his home address is only given as Calgary, his wives name is only given as Mrs. E. O'hara, it does not actually say where he was demobed only that it was the 14/August 1919. He was award the M.C. I don't have the full record yet only what a kind lady at the archive sent me. My uncle visited him in 1959, and the family are pretty sure it was in Winnipeg, cupped with the fact the photo I have of him is stamped with a Winnipeg photographer, which is no longer their. Re: (If he was alive and living and/or working in Winnipeg in 1950's, it > shouldn't be too hard to locate him (might even have spouse's name and his > occupation) It would be great if you can find any lead at all I have come up with blanks every where I have tried. Re:( According to my arithmetic, his daughter was born about 1916. Was she born in Ireland or Canada. If in Canada, where?) I have checked the Irish records and can't find a marriage for James and Ella. I checked the English ones too as Ella was supposed to have come from London with no luck, so I think Colleen would have been born in either Calary or Winnipeg. James was born in 1887. The last I have of him is that he was a labour on a farm in 1901 census in Ireland. This has been a real brick wall for me, so I would be very grateful for any help you could give me. Many thanks Wendy. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Richard McElhoes" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Sunday, December 01, 2002 6:01 AM Subject: Re: [MBWINNIPEG-L] Hello Richard. > Wendy - > Does the Army record show his regiment, date & place of enlistment, > residence address, next-of-kin, date & place of discharge? > If the addresses are in Winnipeg, he could, perhaps, be listed in the City > Directories of the period if the dates were known. > If he was alive and living and/or working in Winnipeg in 1950's, it > shouldn't be too hard to locate him (might even have spouse's name and his > occupation) > According to my arithmetic, his daughter was born about 1916.

    1. [MBWINNIPEG-L] STAIT
    2. Hugh Stott

    3. Greetings all: Here's hoping that someone can locate information about the death (and life, for that matter) of John STAIT, died Sept 4, 1896. He died at Pilot Mound, MB in what is believe by the family to be a farming accident. Is there a genealogical society for that section of MB? Could anyone direct me to a local paper that might record obits? Thanks, and have a great holiday season. Hugh Stott Chicago, IL
