Do anyone have any ideas as to what that would mean? Was there a prison or soemthing of the like in Grey County at that time? Any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thank you Brenda

I have access to the Ontario Birth, Marriage & Death Index microfilms at the library. This registration information will give me a date and a place; then the microfilm with the actual marriage information (ie, parents' names, etc., etc.) would have to be ordered in from the Ontario Archives or LDS. If you are in Ontario, your local library could order it for you. I will get you the microfilm number you need when I next get to the library and have a look at the index.

Dear Listers: In researching my MACDUFFIE/MCPHEE extended family emigration from Islay to the Owen Sound district just before and after 1850, I have found little direct information on the process of changing the language they used from Gaelic to English. Apparently, the 1891 Scotland Census was the first to ask questions on Gaelic usage: over 70% spoke Gaelic and English; 16% Gaelic only, so I assume my family spoke Gaelic while they were in Islay. In Ontario, the 1881 Census asked similar questions, but my question has to do with the earlier period, just after the mid-century. I assume that the change to English took place over time and generations in Canada, as the children were exposed to English in school and the community. I know some churches had Gaelic services. But I would be interested if anyone is aware of systematic/scholarly studies or even anecdotal examples from their own families of the way in which this change took place. There is such information on the experience of immigrants to the US in the 19th c. and I assume it must exist for Canada as well. I find it fascinating that we now attempt to describe in English the lives of those who largely expressed themselves and understood thier own identity and world in Gaelic. Any information and comment would be most welcome. Donald MacPhee [email protected]

Dear Listers: I am working hard at placing my photos on line. I have more than 500 to scan and to place on line. In all there will be 49 cemeteries on line with most of them pioneer. With a job now, my time is not as free as it used to be, however; I am working hard at it and hope that my site will be up and running within the week. Sheila p.s. I will post the correct webpage address at the time it is on line. In all I should have about 1,500 photos online. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----

Good Day I need some information regarding people who are buried in the Rocky Pioneer Cemetary in Bentinck Township. I have the Farmlanes Of Bentinck Book and I have seen the information in it, listing the people who are buried there. I have walked by each gravestone in that cemetary as well. Here is what I want to find out: There have been 1 or 2 clean-ups in the Rocky Pioneer Cemetary in years gone by. I've been told that some broken gravestones are in the Carin that is at the front of the Pioneer Cemetary that reads "In Memory Of The Pioneers 1867-1967", that was done for the Centennial. Obviously people have been buried there since the 1840's and 1850's including many of my McCormick/McCormack relatives. Does any one have a list or know where I can get a list of everyone that is buried there in the Rocky Pioneer Cemetary? The Rocky Presbyterian Church that is there, and was in use as a church until awhile ago, must have recorded who was buried there, and it must have went somewhere. I have phoned the Township Office, and they directed me to the Grey County Archieves Office. No body has a list. The Presbyterian Church in Toronto may have been given names by the Rocky Church, and maybe not. IF A LIST was not sent to Toronto, does anyone have a list? The broken gravestones that are in the carin should be on a list somewhere. There are vacant spots in that cemetary. It appears to me that some graves are probably beside certain gravestones that are standing, but the gravestones are missing. I have found most of my pioneer McCormicks. I knew some of my McCormack relatives, as I have been visiting up there since I was young and I am now 51. I am still looking for a few more pioneer McCormicks. I know where they lived, and have been to their homesteads. If they aren't in the Rocky Pioneer Cemetary, then they are buried on their homesteads.I would like to check a list if possible. Any help would be greatly appreciatied. Sandy

Hi, Thank you to Janice,Gerald, Eva, Sue and Margo for your replies. Thank you for your snippets of information and advice. Since I posted my original message I have managed to work out on the Sullivan Township map where concession 2 C is and as I suspected Charles probably held the freehold of the whole of concession 2 which he appears to have passed to his son John by 1880 (thanks Sue). In the 1881 Census John, wife and 2 young children are enumerated in the next household to Charles. I am almost certain that Charleston was located in 2 G/H (where a grist mill is shown on the township map), judging by the slant of the road and lake edge shown on the village plan I found somewhere on the internet. It was only a small grid iron of roads (5 x 4) and I suspect it may no longer exist. I have trawled the internet but to no avail. I believe the cemetery still exist and is described as "rear of Yonge and Escott Township". I found on the Genweb site a list of transcribed cemeteries but Charleston wasn't on it. I will certainly try the site you suggested Gerald. The info from the History of Grey and the 1851 Census (thanks Sue) shows Charles settled in Sullivan soon after he arrived in New York. I had a response to a message I placed on the Genweb mailing list which gave me the name someone else interested in Charles Critchley. However the address is dead - does anyone know an address or current e-mail address for Debra Dacosta? Thanks again for your help John Irving in Leeds UK
