Muriel, I can testify that I have found many relatives using Automated Genealogy and transcribed a large portion of the 1901 Ontario section of the census and some of the 1911. It does work! Anyone who is looking for relatives in Canada should start there. I find it very fun to transcribe the images on that website. It's the ultimate way to repay those involved in getting the 1911 census released. Christie Alexandria, VA ----- Original Message ----- From: "Muriel M.
