Hi gang, I know someone on one of these two lists asked me about the name Carscadden. Sorry I don't remember who it was or from what list. The name is mentioned in the Ferrier Bible.

Hi list Finally I'm ready to post this information. I tried every suggestion sent to me by tech wiz kids (THANK YOU FOR TRYING!) with the problem I was having trying to 'copy and paste' the list of names in the .jpg folder but none of the suggestions worked. I tried downloading a couple of PrintScreen capture programs and again they didn't help. So untimately I retyped the list. Anyway on with the clippings....An elderly cousin kept a scrapbook, etc. of newspaper clippings throughout WWII. They are deteriorating due to age and mildew so I decided to scan the lot of them rather than lose this chunk of valuable history. It was a bittersweet project - many of those listed below died fighting for us - and many returned home. The following names are of those clippings scanned. All are from Grey County with the majority of them from the Durham area, including Bentinck, Normanby, Egremont and Glenelg townships. If you see a name that you think connects, please contact me at [email protected] and I will reply with an email that includes an attachment of that newspaper clipping. My subject line in the return email will say "attachment is virus scanned".

Greetings All. I have just been advised, once more, that due to circumstances beyond our control, the expected announcement from Industry Minister Rock has been delayed once more. This time until tomorrow morning. I am assured that it is unlikely there will be any further delays. I will be getting up very early in the morning in anticipation of receiving a call from Ottawa advising that the announcement has been made. As soon as I know, you will know. Happy Hunting. Gordon A.

I am hoping that someone can tell me in what newspaper obituaries would appear for Ayton, Ontario or Normanby Township in 1885? I am looking for one for William Scoles who died March 1, 1885. Dianne Scoles

it the items are safe to get wet, and did not run or smear when they got wet in the first place --then use distilled water in plastic type tub (non iron) --place the items stuck together in the water and let them soak --to un-stick them --on photos --be careful ,--water might hurt them --test first --when using water on photos, be careful also not to touch the photo side (the emulsion) as it will be soft to the touch and you will damage the photo ----once the items are un stuck, rinse them off in a clean vat of distilled water --and let dry in a warm oven --(not hot ) --warm about 110 degrees --this should dry them off without mildew --if you have mildew on an item, you can microwave it for 30-45 seconds --this will kill the mildew--remember mildew will spread --so keep the items with mildew separate from the ones without --bill ----- Original Message ----- From: Don L.

Hi list A cousin, Olive Patterson of Durham, has an extensive newspaper clippings collection, circa WWII but also including the casualties of WWI. Unfortunately this collection suffered water damage during the Durham flood and is not only brittle but also mildewed so I decided to salvage what I could. I borrowed her scrapbook and clippings and have been scanning the service men/woman clippings (including marriages). Now I have a dilemma....I would like to put the list online so that anyone who connects can contact me and in return have an email with the clipping as an attachment. My problem is how to list the extensive collection. I'm using Adobe Photoshop - I went to the folder, put it in 'list' format under view, did a 'select all' and 'copy' thinking that it would copy and paste the list into either an email of MS Word - no luck - it won't copy. I do not want to copy out the extensive list - can anyone help??? Thanks Sue Visser

Goodday all. I have never before heard about this passenger list book--is it real? ? ? Look forward to a yes answer!

Hi list undated obit probably from the Durham Chronicle about 1942 MALCOLM McMILLAN Malcolm McMllan, a native of the Priceville district, but for the past 45 years a resident of Owen Sound, passed away Monday morning at the home of his daughter, Mrs. Norman Gibbons, in that city. Mr. McMillan has been in poor health for many years and confined to his bed for eight months. The late Mr. McMillan, who was in his 88th year, was a son of the late Mr and Mrs Colin McMillan, early settlers in the Priceville district. As a young man he went to the United States and lived in different cities for a number of years. He was a paper hanger and painter by trade. The late Mr. McMillan's wife, who before her marriage was Ellen Orr of Elmwood, predeceased him 22 years ago and he has made his home with his only child, Mrs. Gibbons, since that time. Eight grandchildren, including three grandsons in the Canadian active army overseas, survive. Cheerio Sue (McCuaig) Visser Ontario, Canada

Re Margaret's request for an index for passengers between 1817 - 1849. I am not aware of this index. I too could use a look up...more importantly perhaps the lister could let us know where to find this? Prior to 1850 on passenger lists- looking for DUCKLOW/DUKELOW April in BC

To all list users, Would there be anyone on the list that would have the book "Index to Passengers who emigrated to Canada between 1817 and 1849 " that would be willing to do a look up for me? I am looking for any Egan families that may have come to Ontario during that time peiod. The ones I have found were in the Owen Sound area and Proton township. Thanks for your help.

Could someone assist me in my search to locate and purchase a particular book on Collingwood Township. Details are -- The book was published in 1979, The authour was several people actually but the General Editor and Writer was Bill Shannon. It was published by the Township of Collingwood. The full title is called "An Illustrated History of Collingwood Township". The printers were Bennett Press in Craigleith, Ont. Eva

In response to Cliff Carter's request I am listing the sites for on-line maps of Collingwood Twp. >From Sue and Vivian: Go to http://digital.library.mcgill.ca/CountyAtlas/SearchMapframes.php for the Canadian County Atlas to see an 1880 map of Collingwood Twp. A modern map can be seen at http://www.mto.gov.on.ca/english/traveller/map/ >From Sheila: http://www.angelfire.com/bc2/durham1/collingwood.html >From Eileen: go to the Ontario Digital Atlas project on-line at : http://digital.library.mcgill.ca/CountyAtlas/default.htm Go to Maps and click on Grey County. This will bring up a map of the townships. Click on Collingwood and there you have it. Also a very useful site if you don't know where your family lived because you can search by name. Once again thanks to everyone who replied, both with sites and information as to where the property I was looking for was located. This is indeed a great group - always willing to help out. Eva
