Bonnie: Is Michael Deevy / Deavy / Davey in the 1852 Nepean Census? If you think so, the Centrepointe Branch of the Ottawa Public Library has a nice indexed version of this. Go to www.opl.ottawa.on.ca and find the Centrepointe Branch of the Library. E-mail them and they should be able to tell you quickly if he's in the 1852 census. Then go to www.familysearch.org It's run by the Mormon Church (Latter Day Saints). They have microfilm records of most churches and probably have St. Pat's (RC) for the period from the 1830's onwards. Order this microfilm in to your local LDS Centre (they may already have the microfilm you need on site). Check their web site for the nearest of their Family History Centres near you. You can also order these records into your neighbourhood public library on inter-library loan. Make sure that they have a microfilm reader. Since you don't have an exact death date for Michael, start looking about 1849 in the church records. If he's not in the 1852 census for Nepean, you will only have three years of church records to check. The other possibility is that he's in the 1852 census for Goulbourn. Go to www.bytown.net/stanleycorners.htm and send an e-mail to the Goulbourn Township Historical Society. It's also possible that he's buried in Goulbourn Township in one of the Anglican cemeteries. They should be able to tell you about the census records for Goulbourn and may have some leads for you towards the Church records. ...

Hi Listers: There has been some interest in the procedure used to extract portions from the very large 1879 Belden maps which show the location of the landowners in Carleton County in 1879. Bonnie, I hope to get yours done tomorrow. All of the maps of the townships in Carleton County are available in a coffee-table sized book called Belden's "Illustrated Historical Atlas of the County of Carleton, including Ottawa". This book was re-printed in 1997 with the ISBN 0-969-8979-7-9 and was sold through chapters.ca. It may now be out of print again, but if you can get hold of a copy, you can photocopy or scan the part of the map in which you are interested. Digitized copies of the maps are also available on the Internet, created by McGill University. If you are writing your family history, sometimes it's useful to include the location of your ancestors farm or locality in your document. You can extract a portion of the large township maps and include just a smaller image of your ancestors local neighbourhood. There is an example at www.bytown.net/tamon.htm If you go to that page, and click on the "Map Source", it will show you the original large, full colour version of the digital version of the map for Goulbourn Township. This is one of the maps digitized by McGill University. The smaller map shown on the page has been extracted from the large digital map and is easier to work with. It shows the location of the farm of John Tamon in 1879 in Goulbourn Township in the upper left. As a reference, the hamlet of Stanley Corners, between Stittsville and Richmond, is shown at the bottom right of the map -- where it's marked "Town Hall" on the map. Later this week, I hope to create a web page which shows the general Richmond, Stittsville and Fallowfield area on one map and will try to list the steps to get from the large map to a smaller version. ...
