He gave you some information about the above-mentioned cemetery. I was wondering if he ever gave you the web site for the information he passed on. I am working on the Clark tree and it seems that you too are researching the Clark family tree. I was wondering if any of your branches are the same as mine. If you are related to the Levers, or more importantly, William Mathewson Clark and his wife, Philadelphia McConkey, then we definately are. I have several other relatives who I know for sure are buried in that cemetery, but I can't find them. I've been up there three times and have found all of the ones on the list you were given, but I don't know where my missing ones are or what year they died. I know Martha Agnes Cantelon (nee Clark), Mabel Rebecca Clark (d. 1937) and most importantly, Martha Clark (Mrs. William Clark Sr. - d. in the 1880's) are there. If richardwthomas gave you the web site, I would be very grateful if you would pass it on to me. If we are related, I have a large tree that runs from William Mathewson Clark's (1841) second son Joseph T. Clark to the present (with a few branches not yet researched) that I could share.

Hi Sue, You are so right about this. I read a couple of years ago that a school district in the State of Indiana had decided "not to bother" teaching cursive writing to their students any more as it was unnecessary. My first thought was, how are these little cherubs going to be able to sign their names to legal documents when they get older (wills, deeds, the inevitable divorces, etc.)? Are we going back to making an X and getting witnesses (who presumably would have to write cursive) to swear they saw Little Johnny, now all grown up, make his mark on the document? All a lot of nonsense, in my opinion. The lazy teachers and lazy students need to get back to work and the school board should be fired en masse and replaced with brighter people.

Sue, and all We have some family letters written in the mid 1800s. When I was, with some difficulty, transcribing them to type, I asked myself, "why am I bothering to do this?" Then, I realized that I was doing it, not so much for this generation, but for future generations who won't understand the cursive writing. Possibly only scholars will know what many of the words and expressions mean.

This is a real cause for concern. I have come from San Diego, California and wandered around in Ontario Cemeteries (although never in Waterloo) many times and have never checked in or had to get permission to take photos. Even though I may no longer be able to do that because of physical limitations I would hate to think of people who love to do genealogy being unable to come when it's convenient for them. I have actually been there brushing the snow off the tombstones so I could see if any of my relatives were buried there. Once the precedent has been set, other municipalities will think they should do it too.

Original from CanGenWeb August 5, 2017 Cause for Concern... It has come to our attention that the City of Waterloo is considering implementing a bylaw that would ban photography at all municipal cemeteries. The proposed bylaw: "Photography: No person shall cause or permit the taking of any photographic or video imaging within any Cemetery except with the prior permission of the Manager." This would mean that as of September 1st, no one would be allowed to take photographs or video in any municipally owned cemetery operated by the City of Waterloo without prior permission. In other words, you could not take a photograph or video of a headstone you own without prior permission. Or a photograph / video of a loved ones headstone. Or request that someone take a photograph / video on your behalf without prior permission. The bylaw does not provide guidelines for granting or denying permission, only that the manager would decide. Approval of this bylaw would also set a precedent for other municipalities in Ontario to follow. It would have a major impact on genealogy, and not just in terms of projects like ours (think of the number of cemetery photographs you currently use in your personal genealogy research!) There are also multiple businesses and organizations that use cemetery photographs, including the government. Luckily there is time to stop this bylaw from being approved, and your help is need to make this happen. The bylaw changes were submitted to The Bereavement Authority of Ontario for approval. The BAO are the ones who ultimately decide if cemetery bylaws will be approved.

The Crown Deed for the west fifty of Lot 11 was taken by DOnald BLACK (1871 census Division 3 Reference #94) in September 1862 and for the east fifty in November 1886. Donald BLACK, a bachelor sold to Robert WADE for $900. in 1893. In 1915 the WADE heirs, Robert John WADE and Matilda Jane VESSIE (formerly WADE), signed off to WIlliam George WADE. The Crown Deed for the west fifty acres of lot 12 went to Duncan CAMERON on September 4, 1862 and the east part was taken the next year. In 1874 the farm went to Robert WADE with Francis HOWARD holding the mortgage. There is no other mention of the CAMERON name on this page or for this property So not really much to go on.

Many thanks to Brenda, & others providing info on My Morton's from Bentinck. Peter Henry Morton was certainly my g grand father, but the other Morton's referenced are probably not direct descendants of PHM, as none of the family forenames, are common in our Morton Family. They may have been siblings, or other relations in Ireland, who emigrated with Peter, from Dublin, Ireland, ca 1852. Peter Henry Morton sold his Bentinck farm in 1872, and moved to Toronto, where he became a book agent/distributor. In 1892, he and his entire family moved to Alberta, where they received other Crown land, for several members of his family. He died, and is buried in a Calgary Cemetery. Thanks again.

There is only 1 mention of Duncan CAMERON and that is on page 103 it reads as follows: Lot 11, 12, 13, 14 Concession 2 WGR The nest four lots in the section were taken from the Crown by different pioneering families but by 1915 they had come under the ownership of one family. The Crown Deed for the west fifty of Lot 11 was taken by DOnald BLACK (1871 census Division 3 Reference #94) in September 1862 and for the east fifty in November 1886. Donald BLACK, a bachelor sold to Robert WADE for $900. in 1893. In 1915 the WADE heirs, Robert John WADE and Matilda Jane VESSIE (formerly WADE), signed off to WIlliam George WADE. The Crown Deed for the west fifty acres of lot 12 went to Duncan CAMERON on September 4, 1862 and the east part was taken the next year. In 1874 the farm went to Robert WADE with Francis HOWARD holding the mortgage. There is no other mention of the CAMERON name on this page or for this property So not really much to go on. If there is anything else I can help you with just give me a shout.

He's married to a Mary (check) has a daughter named Mary (check approx right age). But we know how common those names are. From my Mary Cameron (his daughter) her marriage registry says she was married 5 March 1867, she lived in Egremont Twp, and her father was Duncan and mother Mary Black. I wonder if he's in the "Farm Lanes of Bentinck" and it says he was married to Mary Black? Can someone do a look up to check. I've hit a wall......
