Hello? Anyone alive out there? <grin> I just got the following query and since I dont have anything on Canadian Estes, I'm forwarding it here in case someone else might. bound to be of the northern line. Email me any responses and I'll pass 'em on to Elinor. Cheers, David. Forwarded email: What a lot of work has gone into this research. However, I didn't find much on the Estes name in Canada and since this was my grandmother's maiden name (Leafa Estes), I am particularly interested. The only information I have is that she was the daughter of John Estes (b. 1813) and Hannah Walker (b.1816). Any suggestions on where to go from here? Thanks a lot Elinor Tait -- ... under de-construction ('till I find something I wanna put here) DC2.D A+++! L^ Pfwl Bfl Fo R+++! Ac+ J-- S++ Fr+++!
