Thanks Virginia. The marriage records at the Archives certainly cover this period. I've looked up other marriages there but I don't think I ever specifically looked for this one. Thanks again.

Gerry, Check the Archives of Ontario website for what years are available for marriages in Ontario. You can access these records at the LDS as well as the Archives.

Henry Albert married Marie-Anne Roquebrune 13 July 1875 at Our Lady of Visitation, Gloucester, Ontario. I am looking for the parents of Marie-Anne Roquebrune. The 2000 publication "Carleton County, Ontario Marriages, 1869-1873" by Jeff Stewart & Beverley Lee obviously won't cover this 1875 marriage, and I don't know if there are any other publications that might cover it. If anyone has her parents or any suggestions as to where I might look, please let me know. Thanks! Gerry Bourguignon Toronto

Greetings All. Last night, and this morning, have shown some interesting changes made to our Federal Liberal Cabinet. I thank all who have sent me messages advising of some of these changes, particularly those which might have had an effect on our efforts to regain public access to Historic Census Records. The resignation of Brian Tobin, not just from the Federal Liberal Cabinet but presumably from politics altogether, does not really surprise me as I wondered how long it would be before he quit something again. He served many years as a Liberal MP and member of Cabinet before quitting Federal politics to run for and successfully be elected as Premier of Newfoundland. He quit that to return to Ottawa and was appointed as Minister of Industry without having been elected by the people of Canada. While he was subsequently elected in the general election, and retained his position as Minister of Industry, I find abhorrent the idea of someone not elected by the people being placed in a position of power within the Cabinet of the government. Until this happened with Brian Tobin I had not been aware of this happening previously, but have since learned that it has. We will not miss Mr. Tobin, or cry buckets of tears because of his absence. In our opinion, insofar as our campaign regarding Census is concerned, he abdicated his responsibilities of direction to Statistics Canada. We feel that he never had an original thought regarding access to Census records. When, on the only occasion I am aware of his making a public statement on this issue (release of the Report of the Expert Panel on 15 December 2000), his lips may have moved, but the words were those of Dr. Ivan Fellegi, Chief Statistician of Canada. His refusal to respond to our concerns, or to even acknowledge receipt of our correspondence, was insulting, and resulted in Access to Information requests made for which we are still waiting for the information requested. Being in public service as an elected representative of the people is not an easy task, and certainly takes a toll on family life. I give Mr. Tobin credit for all the years he has served the people, both of Canada, and of Newfoundland, and wish him well in whatever endeavours he takes on from this point forward. I will not, however, miss his lack of direction regarding the Census issue. We view the appointment of the Hon. Allan Rock to the position vacated by Mr. Tobin as a positive move. While Mr. Rock has not provided a definitive answer to the question of his support of access, he has had the courtesy to respond to, or acknowledge receipt of, our correspondence, as did Mr. Tobin's predecessor, John Manley. We are optimistic that Mr. Rock will at least give serious thought to our concerns regarding Census. We look forward to his giving direction to Statistics Canada regarding this matter, rather than simply being a 'front' for Dr. Fellegi. A reminder to all about the importance of attending the Town Hall meetings, either as presenters, or as spectators. We must display a prescence at these meetings to show our support for public access to the Census records. Even if all you do is fill a chair and clap to show support of positive presenters, you will be helping. Statistics Canada surely set up this expensive and unnecessary series of meetings and focus groups hoping to receive negative responses. They must be shown that the only thing negative is their refusal to turn control of the records over to the National Archives, and their so-called 'compromise solution' that is no 'compromise' at all, but a thinly veiled attempt to make access so restrictive as to be little better than no access at all. Another request for all presenters to send me copies of their presentations to place on the Post 1901 Census Project website. I also seek reports from those attending the meetings on their impressions of the proceedings. Please keep us informed. Happy Hunting. Gordon A.

Hi Lorraine, Thanks for the URL's. In exchange, I would like to pass on this site which I find most helpful: http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~wjmartin/wm-index.htm Joanne

Hi Connie, While I don't have very much in my database, I do believe I may have a descendent of your Mackey line. I've seen variations in the spelling depending upon what record you look at. My person is Thomas McKay who was born about 1867 in Carleton County. He married Susan Ann Ross (my Great-grand Aunt), b. Mar 25 1868, the daughter of Andrew Ross and Mary Robinson. I've done a bit of research in the census records for Carleton and found many McKay (and MacKay, and Mackey) that I tried summarizing at one time. But I just never got back to it. I'll be you that your Thomas Jr., born 1866 is my Thomas. I'd love to share info with you. I also have copies of most of the indexed census records for Carleton including Goulbourne from 1842 through 1901. You've probably already been through these, but just know I have them if you are interested. You can see my data on the World Connect Project of Rootsweb.com. I only have Thomas in my database now, as I said, I never finished piecing them all together. Would love to hear from you.

Hi Connie My husband's great grandfather was a William John Mackey born in Perth 1863 s/o Alexander Mackey born in Ontario c.1840 married Mary Ann Stoughton about 1858. I don't have any information on the parents of Alexander. When my mother-in-law was growing up in Arnprior she said that ther were two William Mackey's in town Black 'Bill' and Red 'Bill" Mackey so named for the colour of their hair. Do you have an Alexander in your research?

Hello all ... I am seeking information on WILLIAM MACKEY and his descendents. William Mackey settled in GOULBOURN Township circa 1818/20. I believe his wife's name may have been JANE or MARY JANE. Question: Does anyone have information on Irish immigrants of that time - were they part of a group similar to the ones Peter Robinson brought over to settle Upper Canada or did they travel on their own? Although, I have found the graves of many of William and Jane's children, I have not been able to find William or Jane. Unfortunately, St. Andrew's Presbyterian and St. Paul United/Methodist records were destroyed by fires. I do know that at one point William became a representative for Goulbourn and spent time in Hazeldean. However, I have still not been able to find more on him. Children of William and Jane: Margaret (1807 - 1887) married Philip Green William Jr. (1815 - December 5, 1904) married Sarah Green Robert (1822 - 1916) married Mary Mackey (1821-1843), then Margaret Todd (1817 - 1903) James (born 1817) married Mary Jane Thomas (1824 - Feb 19, 1913) married Claracy Brouse Mary Jane (1827); married Joseph Brouse (Settled in Forest River, North Dakota) Other possible but unconfirmed children include: John, Mary, Ann. Margaret, William, Robert and Thomas settled in NEPEAN Township just outside Richmond. Children of Thomas and Claracy: Andrew (b. circa 1848) Philip (b. circa 1852) Robert (b. circa 1852) Fanny (b. circa 1856) John (b. circa 1858) Margaret (b. circa 1860) Mary (b. circa 1863) Thomas Jr. (b. 1866) William ("Big Bill") (b. 1869) - who left Twin Elm after his father's death in 1913 and settled in New Brunswick. If anyone has any information respecting these families, I would really appreciate hearing from you so that we can share and compare notes, etc. Thank you. Connie

Greetings all. My apologies for the length of this message. It is the text of a message that I have just sent to Statistics Canada protesting some recent actions relating to the Town Hall Meetings and Focus Groups being held on access to Historic Census Records. It will be interesting to see what response I get. Happy Hunting Gordon A. Watts gordon_watts@telus.net Co-Chair, Canada Census Committee Port Coquitlam, BC http://globalgenealogy.com/Census en français http://globalgenealogy.com/Census/Index_f.htm ======================================= You will recall that on Thursday 29 November 2001 I sent a rather lenthy email communication to Dr. Ivan Fellegi, Chief Statistician of Canada. In this message I expressed a number of concerns relating to the then upcoming Town Hall meetings and Focus Groups. I asked a number of very specific questions requesting very specific answers. While your reply, dated Friday 14 December 2001, on behalf of Dr. Fellegi, did not fully answer my questions I was relatively satisfied with your response -- until now, that is. I am disturbed by communications I have received regarding certain events relating to these Town Hall meetings and Focus Groups. In my message to Dr: Fellegi I asked: ..... What is the criteria for choosing participants of the focus groups? Specifically what questions will be asked of prospective participants, and for what reasons will those contacted not be considered for participation? On what basis will prospective participants be accepted? Your response to this query was as follows: ..... The selection of participants for the focus groups will be done using education as a selection criteria, with one group in each city composed of individual with post-secondary education and the second group composed of those with no post-secondary education. All selections for the focus groups will include a mix of genders, age groups (all 18 years and over), occupation and income, and will follow market research standards for recruitment. The selection will be made by Environics. It would appear that the criteria you stated is not the only criteria for determining participation in these focus groups. The following is a part of an email that I received on Thursday 10 January 2002. "I was invited to attend a focus group this evening at Research House,1867 Yonge Street in Toronto. The topic was to be something "general consumer". At the beginning of the session the facilitator, Chris Roberts, introduced himself as from Environics. He said that he lives in Ottawa and travels around the country conducting focus groups. He then asked all the participants to introduce themselves, saying what they did for a living and what they did for fun. I mentioned my work and then said that my hobby was genealogy or family history. The facilitator then asked whether I belonged to any societies. I said yes, the Ontario Genealogical Society. He then said that he would have to ask me to leave. He accompanied me out and explained in the hallway that the topic was the release of the historic census." I am extremely upset regarding the content of this message. Contrary to the stated purpose of these consultations, i.e. that a broad range of Canadians have an opportunity to express their views on the issue of access to Historical Census Records, the appearance is that there is an attempt to prevent anyone that might have any knowledge whatsoever of Census from participating in these focus groups. This does little to dispell the fears expressed in my letter to Dr. Fellegi that information provided to participants in these endeavours, and the questions asked of them, will be biased so as to elicit negative responses. In addition to the above, I have been advised of individuals seeking to participate in the various Town Hall meetings being refused simply on the basis that they admitted belonging to an organization from which they were told someone else was already booked to make a presentation. This has happened even though there were time slots available. I am advised that in one instance where this happened, there was at least one time slot left vacant for the specific meeting requested. In most provinces there are blanket historical and genealogical societies. These blanket organizations may have many different chapters and people from some of these different chapters may wish to participate. The Ontario Genealogical Society, for example, has dozens of chapters througout the province. In our view it is not justifiable to refuse the participation of an individual who admits to being a member of the OGS simply because there is already a member of the OGS participating. Those requesting to participate could come from chapters on opposite ends of the province, and have very different points to make. While I am on a roll I will voice a few other complaints regarding these proceedings. We are aware of the solicitation by Environics (or Statistics Canada) of certain people to appear and speak at the Town Hall Meetings. Those solicited are individuals that might logically be expected to speak against access, such as privacy advocates and statistical employees of provincial governments. I was personally advised of such solicitation by the privacy consultant and researcher that appeared at the Ottawa meeting. It must have been a shock when he did not speak out against access of 1906 and 1911 Census records. At the Halifax meeting there were two provincial government bureaucrats who spoke. We suspect that both of these individuals were 'invited' to participate. At least one of them thanked the moderator for the invitations to speak. Both, of course, opposed access. They are the only participants of any meeting held to date that opposed access. It is interesting that people expected to be opposed to access are being 'invited' by Environics to participate, while those expected to support it are not. We will be watching with interest to see who, at other meetings, will have been 'invited' to participate. We of course object to the pushing of the unsubstantiated 'promise' and the so-called 'third option' or 'compromise solution' at these meetings. We do not expect, however, regardless of our objections, that anything will change in this regard. In regards the Vancouver meeting, at which I am scheduled to speak, the date originally scheduled was 4 February 2002. The date of this meeting was changed without notification to participants to 30 January 2002. It was only by accident I found out about this change. I wonder how many others granted spots to speak on 4 February have not been notified about the change in date. Environics will not inform anyone who is scheduled to appear until the morning of the meeting. By that time it will likely be too late to inform anyone of the change. I am aware of a number of people intending to travel a great distance to attend these meetings. If any meeting date or time is changed, Environics should be contacting those scheduled to advise them of the change. I will look forward to receiving a response to my concerns from Statistics Canada. Thank you. Gordon A.
