    3. In the latest on-line edition of the National Genealogical Society............. "He explained to them that history was like an old house at night. With all the lamps lit. And the ancestors whispering inside. 'To understand history ... we have to go inside and listen to what they're saying. And look at the books and pictures on the wall. And smell the smells.'" - Arundhati Roy, The God of Small Things (New York: Random House, 1997), p. 51. Pam

    2. Lynne Kemp
    3. Hi Kevin: I have tried a couple of times to find more information for you about your family. I can't seem to find anything on them for births, marriages, or deaths. Do you have them on any census? Do you know if they were born and married in Ontario? Regards, Lynne Kemp. _________________________________________________________________ Are you ready for Windows Live Messenger Beta 8.5 ?

Box 892, Barrie, Ontario L4M 4Y6 Phone (705) 435-3071 E-mail: touchthesky5@rogers.com Website: www.simcoebogs.com I am writing this up on Halloween day so Happy Halloween to everyone. Watch out for the children. We are looking forward to hearing Janice Nickerson from Upper Canada Genealogy speak to us this coming Saturday, November 3rd at 2 p.m. at the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints at 79 Ferris Lane (east of Bayfield Street, south of Cundles Road) in Barrie. Her topic will be “Putting Flesh on the Bones of your Upper Canada Ancestors”. Please join us. Remember our December 1st meeting is the time that we put aside each year to “Show and Tell”. Sort through your research and find an interesting tidbit that you would like to share with us. There will be cold drinks, Christmas goodies and door prizes. Please mark it on your calendar. “Who Do You Think You Are?” airs every Thursday night on CBC at 7:30 p.m. Friends of the Archives of Ontario have planned a couple of tours. On Saturday, November 10th at 12:30 p.m., there will be tour of the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health followed by the film “The Madness of King George”. On Tuesday, November 20th at 1 p.m., there is a tour of the Toronto District School Boards' Sesquicentennial Museum and Archive. For further information on these tours, go to the website friendsofthearchives@yahoo.ca Information has just been received that the United Church Archives (Toronto) will be moving from Victoria University at the University of Toronto to the United Church of Canada’s General Council Offices at 3250 Bloor St. West, Toronto. It was uncertain for a while where this valuable information would end up, as it was getting too expensive to keep at the university. We have been assured that the information will be moved and stored according to the strictest archival standards. Good new indeed. The test and the use of man’s education is that he finds pleasure in the exercise of his mind. --------- Jacques Barzun I hope to see you Saturday. Linda Mitchell Chair, Simcoe County branch of OGS

    3. Two of the messages come to me so here is a tip. Do NOT send the message as an attachment -- many people do not open these because they are afraid what might be in the attachment. Just a tip Muriel ----- Original Message ----- From: JAMES BALLANTYNE To: ENG-CORNWALL-ST-COLUMB-MAJOR@rootsweb.com ; can-ont-carleton@rootsweb.com ; can-ont-simcoe@rootsweb.com Sent: Monday, October 29, 2007 4:46 PM Subject: Johanna Lovering info It's been a while since I've had the opportuniy to post to these sites but recent events have provided me with data Lovering researchers may be interested in. I have ordered and received Johanna's birth certificate (25th April, 1839) which lists William lovering and Mary Lanxon as her parents. As well I have obtained a photograph, taken around 1900 of Johanna and her children. Anyone interested in a scan is welcome to it keeping in mind it is currently being reproduced so I'll send it as soon as I get it back. Jim

Hello Listers, I am desperately searching for any kind of information you can provide me on the following two individuals. Arthur John J Insley and Ethel Beatrice (Webb) Insley. According to the ONTARIO GENEALOGICAL SOCIETY Ontario Cemetery Ancestor Search found that this URL http://ogs.andornot.com/CemeteryIndex.htm. Arthur and Ethel are buried in Coldwater Cemetery, Simcoe County, Medonte Township. Can anyone provide me with birth dates, death dates and obits for the following two individual's. Arthur JJ is my great grandfather and great grandmother that I never got to meet. It could be possible my grandfather is buried there to. His name is Arthur Insley born Apr 1912. Arthur's Jr had a daughter who is my mom ...Jean Insley Sorley Culp that later got adopted by my other grandfather. This means a lot to my brother and I because we never knew my mom was adopted until 6 weeks ago. Thanking you in advance.

    1. [CAN-ONT-SIMCOE] Census Searches Not "Part of our work"
    2. muriel m davidson
    3. To all:- Whether a new or long-time subscriber, we do not do searches of the online census - 1901 and 1911. However, I am able to send suggestions how to search -- it is very simple and all is online. My thought about the recent names is that it was a marriage but we are not yet fortunate to have censii records online other than 1901 and 1911 -- but we are working on 1852 with others to follow. Shoulf anyone have any suggestions, please forward to me -- muriel_davidson@sympatico.ca Muriel M. Davidson, Co-Chair, Canada Census Committee Brampton, ON
