Maybe your family is connected. He was born April 14, 1834 in Yorkshire England. He married Hannah Julianna Isabella Buckendahl, went by Julie or Julianna, January 07, 1856. They had eight children together, she had others from a previous marriage. George born July 30, 1856 John born June 15, 1858 Mary born February 10, 1859 Benjamin Grainger born May 16, 1861 Albert Grainger born May 07, 1863 Alfred born January 04, 1865 Hannah Grainger born January 23, 1868 Julia Isabelle Grainger born September 10, 1870 Alfred died as a child and Benjamin and Alfred both moved to Sakatchewan. As far as I know John had three daughters. George stayed in Ontario and had a daughter and two sons. Their names were George Alexander born August 30, 1891 and Arthur Ernest born November 25, 1897. Hope this helps Darla
