Hello, Jim.............I think I corresponded with you in 2005 when you first offered the document you speak of to a descendant of Alexander Brown and Grace Gilmore. It appears that you have still not located a direct descendant . Have you considered donating that document to the Provincial Archives of New Brunswick? I have asked that all of my documents and information that I have compiled be donated there. That way, it will be properly preserved and will be accessable to any family member who wishes to see it. I am a descendant of Grace Gilmore's brother, James Brown Gilmore and his wife Mary E. Flewelling. (through their son Thomas Gilmore/Mary Fox Howe then daughter Margaret Gilmore/Angus MacMillan , then Jean MacMillan/Neal Burden and then me) I have a copy of a Gilmore family history that was published in1983 and I think I tried to obtain a copy of that for you, but could not locate one. In the above book, it says "Alexander Brown was born in 1793 and was a brother of David Brown. His father was Alexander Brown sen. He was married on September 27, 1821 to Grace Gilmore, a sister of his brother's wife and the second daughter of Joseph Gilmore and Margaret Brown." On the page about David Brown , it says "David Brown was born in the year 1791, the son of Alexander and Dorothy Brown. Alexander and Dorothy came to new Brunswick after the American Revolutionary War and received a grant of land on Grand Lake, in the Parish of Canning, Queens County in 1786." There is a picture of David Brown in this book, as well as pictures of Rhoda and Mary Jane Brown, daughters of Alexander and Grace. I do hope you can find someone who will appreciate the document that you have carefully preserved.

Greetings, "The Historica-Dominion Institute says the average age of Canada's 125,000 remaining Second World War veterans is 88 years.

Hi List, Is anyone working on the McBeths of Westfield Parish,Kings Co.? Their daughter, Isabella, drowned Dec 1840 along with a friend Catherine Giggy. They were noted as being " young women". I have found no records for their burial so cannot determine how old they were. Shirley
Shirley, The early records of New Brunswick book by Wood-Holt has the following: Marriage bonds but no related ceremonies recorded in the government Register 'B' for the city and County of Saint John.

Hi, There is a marriage bond in Saint John on 6 Sept. 1832 of Charles Stokes & Brigit Ryon (widow) both of St. Martins. In the Kings County Marriage Register is the marriage of Charles Stoker (Par. of St. Martins) to Bridget Ryan (Par. of St. Martins) - 20 Sept. 1832 - wits.

I sooo wish the 1851 census had survived - especially since Saint John was such an important area for early settlers and immigrants. It would have helped make sense out of all of these marriages that seem to begin and end on the same page. Thanks for checking for Knapton, as well.

Hi List, I am looking for an early presumably Saint John marriage (perhaps Kings Co.) for a Charles Stokes. It would be early 1830s. On one of his children's Massachusett's death records, his wife was shown as Eliza Giggy born Saint John, NB. (and him as well); however, on the death record for his wife, she is recorded as Eliza Knapton Stokes. So who was she?? Children all born Saint John: Annie P. 1838, Charlotte 1846, Thomas J. 1851; Louisa 1852 and Henrietta 1853. Any information would be appreciated... Shirley
