Lisr I'm searching for descendants of the owners of a home in Dayton Yar. Co. NS now "At the Sign of the Whale", A Pottery & Craft Shop. The third owner Jacob Israel Phillips, a shoemaker, was an owner 1st from Feb. 1871 to 1878. 2nd from Nov 1885 to Aug 1886 and again briefly in 1890. He apparently bought and sold the property as an investment, as he resided in another house further north on the way to Hebron, He ownes a tannery and also owned and operated a large candy factory in the same area. Jacob Israel Phillips may have had a dtr Margaret who m. 1842 Russel T Wyman (d/o Jesse (1779---). I have a Wyman connection through my grand mother Eva B Wyman who m. Everett LeRoy Purdy of Pleasant Lake and Plymouth . Do the folowing names "ring a bell" ? Henry Phillips m. Ethel Allen Wm H Phillips m. Eva May Allen (1873-1949) Frank P Phillips m. Johanna S Allen (1863-1901) Eleanor Phillips m. Joseph Saunders Julia A Phillips (1828-1922) m.1st Capt Horace B Porter, She m. 2nd Stephen Churchill (1811-1887) Margaret M Phillips m. 1878 Prince Wm.Whitehouse (1850---) Jacob Phillips (s/o Jacob ) m. 1890 Nancy H Cann (1847---) Hope some one is able to shed some light on Jacob I.

LIST Need info on James Bond Weddleton. sail maker. He owned a home between 1878 & 1885. which was built by Jacob R Tedford, Sr in 1792 (as per an inventory sheet from Yarmouth Museum) I am hoping I can trace a few of the descendants of the owners of this home in Dayton , now "At the Sign of the Whale". A Pottery & Craft Shop. Who was his wife and children-? I beleive he he had a dtr.Margaret who married in 1842 Russel T Wyman (s/o Jesse (1779---) & Azuba Nickerson). I am a Wyman descendant and grew up in the house in question between 1934 to 1949 when Herm Gillis owned the property. My records show Russel T Wyman & Margret Phillips had:- Frances m. Huston Minard of Queens Co. and Emma m. 1865 William V Brown. Any info will be appreciated. Bernice Allen Thunder Bay Ont.

I only know of one right now and I have heard it does not have dates just a lage cross with the name Robicheau on it. I had thought it would be easier to get a bit of information out of the church but the lady that works there only works 3 days a week and is kind of new to the job. I will have to wait to see what or if she can come up with any thing for me, she was very kind to offer to see what see could find and you to are kind to offer. If its okay with you if and when i get more information I will repost my request. I would not ask any one to just have to go and look blindly for a headstone, I have done that with the work i do with Random Acts of Kindness and I know it can be at the very least an all day job. Then too I am not sure if the 4 people i am looking for could even afford a headstone and I know back in the day a lot of time a wooden cross was place and could have been lost or just gone with time. I am looking for Robicheaus but I am finding that some were spelled Robichaud, Joseph died in July 1958, Nettie died in Dec. 1947, Marie Elizabeth died in Oct. 1921 and Pierre or Peter I am at this time unsure of his death date. I guess it is possible that maybe they were all buried under the cross that I have heard about but I will need to hear from the church on that first to know for sure. Again thank you for your offer! I should have thought it out more before positng my request, my appologies to all.

Does anyone living in Yarmouth, know the names at all. I am told their may still be family living there. My grand uncle did own a summer cottage or house there back in the 60's. Kellyann

Hi List, For the 1838 Yarmouth Census, what was the area "Moody's Corner to Yarmouth Town Line"? The "Head of Household" I'm interested in is Alexander McRay [McCra of Short Beach?], his "neighbours" on the census sheet are, in order as they appear: James Bent, Rufus Churchill, Thomas Churchill, Aron Baker, Jacob Killam, Alexander McRay, Ellanah(?) Bent, Alexander Bent, James Bent. I know "Bent" was/is a Sandford name, but would appreciate any feedback as to the location of these families. Also, where abouts is the Short Beach Cemetery? There is a sharp coorner on the where the Main Shore Rd. from Sandford, becomes the Lake Darling Rd., is it near there? Thanks for any help! Douglas

I was in hopes that the church would have let me know plot locations but have not heard from them as of yet... So it my have to be put on hold. I would not ask any one to have to go search the headstones to find them especially when I am not sure if there are headstones for each of them or not.

If this cemetery was only used till 1900 it wouldn't be the right one anyway. I know my grandmother isn't buried in the present St. Ambrose cemetery so mayabe she is in Mountain View. Do you know where I could find a complete list of names for this burial site? Would there be one at City Hall? Tom King

I'm very interested in what is it town this cemetery is located in. I'v hit a brick wall in my search, but there may be a clue in a cemetery. My grand uncle was a twin, the twin did not survive. A grave-stone may give a clue. Fraser/Frazer, born 1902-04, in Yarmotuh Town. Kellyann
