Hello Dick Chandler I once visited Salmon Arm while on a 6 weeks coach tour to all the National parks (myself and 2 friends (all of us RN's). What a wonderful sight looking down the ravine and seeing those concrete pools built (I think) to help the salmon jump up the river??? That was 25 years ago. Anyway , on to talking about Blacksmiths in the family. I am going to add your Blacksmith Robert Chandler to my new Blacksmiths Index. http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~blacksmiths This merely an index of blacksmiths and where they were born and/or worked. I have included just one close family member for cross reference purposes, usually a wife but sometimes a parent or child. Not all the spelling mistakes are mine - many census entries are wrong but I don't like to change the original. Regards Ann in Australia explorer@smartchat.net.au
