Now I remember, I went through the film of missed registrations etc. I know you have been through all the transcripts for the area. You are probably right about the double blow and forgetting to register the death. Any inquest I have seen have been reported by the coroner.

The family was in town for the buriel of Samuel's grandson, Thomas Dalton Collins, but he took ill and went to the doctors, unfortunately, he never came back to them. There should have been a paper trail IMHO, as there was an inquest done regarding his death. Have not been able to find a death annoucenment or registration, my thought is the family had a double blow and just had to much grief to deal with putting another ad in the paper. The family had moved from Innisfil abt 1872-3 to Oro. Have no problems finding the rest of his family (sons and daughters) but Samuel and his wife, Margaret nee Reynolds are giving me the slip :) Regards, Chris N ----- Original Message ----- From: "Heather Bertram" <aaron@bmts.com> To: "'Chris N'" <crslvstd@csolve.net> Sent: Friday, August 10, 2007 12:03 PM Subject: RE: [CAN-ONT-SIMCOE] Samuel Corbett > Hi Chris > > Just wondering where in Simcoe Co Samuel Sr was "living", if it were > close to a county line, he may be registered in another county. > > Heather ------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to CAN-ONT-SIMCOE-request@rootsweb.com with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message

Checked...rechecked every possible spelling variation I could think of...nothing yet. One of these days it will pop out at me. Between the Corbetts and hubby's Vasseur side, they are keeping me busy with dead ends. Thanks for all your help Heather, I do appreciate it!! Regards, Chris N P.S. They were at Cons 6 Lot 25/26 and in 1876 Samuel Corbett was at Cons 6 E1/2 19.
