I mentioned to the list a few days ago that Ancestry has mistakenly transcribed some census pages horizontally instead of vertically. I've notified them of the problem numerous times, to no avail. In my experience, the transcription is directly left to right. The names are on the subsequent lines horizontally ie. you'll have Joe Smith (head), Alma Campbell (wife), John Smith (son), Mary Campbell (daughter), Thomas Smith (son), Susan Campbell (daughter) etc. Whenever I run across these mistakes, I make a comment on the page in the hopes that other researchers will be made aware of this. It's apparent that Ancestry has no intention of fixing them.

I am looking for the marriage of Edward Vienneau to Agnes Aube. They can be found having children in the late 1800's. I'm interested as to who her parents were. Thanks Dick Aubé

Hi Carroll, Rose is right - Land Registry is a great place for finding the elusive wives. They oft-times were recorded in the land transactions - which happened quite often in a lot of cases. Also, have you ever ordered this Land Petition where it shows 2 Samuel Mooers - could be an error OR a connection. 1800 York Co: Samuel Mooers, Samuel Mooers, Thomas Owens - under "Thomas Owens" His probate, which can be ordered from the NB Archives, is where I would start.

Yes -- all true. Am trying to piece together all this info... I question the age at death as I have him born abt 1842... but then may not be the same Stanton . Regarding the death of the children 's father --- I am working on the idea he deserted Mary Riordan, she called herself a widow to save face , he found himself a younger Christie in Nova Scotia ,called himself a widower , and stayed in Nova Scotia --- that is my guess & I need to prove it all. That's why the interest in the marriage with Mary Riordan @ the Church of Assumption . If I can prove Joseph who married Riordan was the same Joseph who married Christie -- that would tie up the loose ends. Further when The Diocese archives said they could find NO death record for Joseph in New Brunswick .. it rather makes me think he resided in Nova Scotia with Christie. A wonderful mystery -- fun to work on , but annoying that his parents' name in the Riodan marriage is not noted! Martin was his brother. You did a wonderful job -- and I thank you so much . ----- Original Message ----- From: "S.

Hi List... FINALLY NB archives has had their first update for 2011. Today they added birth records for 1915-1916 :) The info can be located at http://archives.gnb.ca/APPS/GovRecs/VISSE/?culture=en-CA Happy Hunting!

Oh.... well, he wouldn't have been the first to do that. I found one that way as well... they can run but they cannot hide. :>) Good luck in your search!

Hi Carolyn, There was a Joseph Stanton in Cape Breton and with the same death date as you gave of 1929. Nova Scotia Archives www.novascotiagenealogy.com Joseph E. Stanton d. 16 Jan 1929, Marble Mountain, Inverness Co., Cape Breton, Nova Scotia. His birth place is listed as PEI - born 1827 - aged 101, married. Parents' names unk. Buried Lime Hill, Cape Breton, Jan 18, 1929. Informant - John D. McPhie, Lime Hill, CB Overseer of Poor for Dist. 16 This Jos. Stanton & wife Christie are on the 1891, 1901 & 1911 NS, Inverness Co. censuses. Their 1885 marriage is on the Nova Scotia website, above. This Joseph E. Stanton was a Widower at marriage. But in going over the death abstracts for Joseph & Mary's 2 children - it appears that Joseph Stanton, the father, had already died. http://archives.gnb.ca New Brunswick Newspaper Statistics There are other writeups on the children.

Thank you . I will check out the ancestry. Yes , there are a few others. The Mary McCafferty is Mary Riordan. McCafferty was her maiden name . The Riordan name was from her first husband who died. I am not sure of Joseph 's death , but think it was in Marble Mountain, Nova Scotia in 1929 , but have yet to prove it . Joseph was from PEI ... so far have not located a birth / baptism for him there. Both of his children [ Joseph & Margaret] died -- one in 1892 ; the other, 1893.

On 26 August 1866 Joseph STANTON married Mary RIORDAN at the Church of the Assumption in West Saint John . I have searched online NB Archives. Received the marriage date from the Saint John diocese folks. I have tried emailing the church , but email comes back not deliverable. First I looking for the names of his parents . Second a copy of the actual marriage certificate . Also I am wondering if the city has records which would give me the names of the parents of Joseph STANTON . Thanks for any help as to where I go from here. C Billen tbillen@maine.rr.com

Their marriage record is on ancestry.ca - Acadia, Canada, Vital & Church Records (Drouin Collection), 1670-1946 but parents' names were not recorded. There appear to have been a few other Joseph Stantons in Saint John around the mid to late 1880s - who married a Mary Doherty, Mary Quinn & Mary McCafferty - what's the death date of your Joseph and what were the names of his children?

Just in time for Easter there is an update that might interest all. St. George Baptist Church Records-Church Register-1839 transcribed and donated by Doreen Houston. Thanks to Doreen! http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~nbpstgeo/stge4baptistrecords.html Since January of 2010 I have kept all recent obituaries up to date. I have added Mayors of St. George donated by Jason Gaudett and a story(the story was one I copied from a school project by Jeremy Hatt 5M kept at the St. George Historical Museum. I hope it survived the flood but if not I am glad I copied it) and pictures of the St. George=2C NB railroad to the Historical Notes page. Thanks to Jason and Jeremy! http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~nbpstgeo/stge5.htm I have added two new additions to Private Cemeteries. A 'Hosser' gravestone found at the corner of Portage Street in St. George and the Therieault field private cemetery in Back Bay donated by Carla Bennett Venne.

Good morning list, Can anyone tell me how I might get an announcement of a wedding on July 1, 1894 in Fredericton. I am looking for the wedding of Charles A. Fleet to Maggie Wisely Segee. PANB says they were married on Oct. 4, 1894 which is wrong. They have a wedding certificate, signed October 4, 1894. Why would the minister wait almost three months to issue this certificate? Any help would be appreciated. Thank you, Walter Fleet in PA

Hi Walter, Actually, the marriage is dated 16 Oct 1894 http://archives.gnb.ca/APPS/GovRecs/VISSE/141B7.aspx?culture=en-CA&guid=2BCBA5FD-BB9E-4368-87B1-FC8B708B4907 I would think that had there been a marriage writeup it would show on the New Brunswick Newspaper Statistics also found on the NB Archives website - and I couldn't find one for either Flett nor Fleet. The marriage record shows that they were both of the Methodist faith. The Archives has County Guides which include films for various Churches. You can do an inter-library loan or you could contact them to see if they could do a lookup. There are 4 Methodist Churches listed in the York County Guide http://archives.gnb.ca/Documents/CountyGuides/York_en-CA.pdf (Churches are listed at the end of the guides). Their marriage record said that it was the Rev. George Best Payson who had officiated. I tried to find which church Rev. Payson may have been at the time of their marriage but no luck so far. The Methodist Church became part of the United Church of Canada - you could contact their archives to see if they can assist you where the Rev. Payson is concerned. http://www.united-church.ca/local/archives/on Shirley On Tue, Apr 19, 2011 at 4:49 AM, Walter R.

It definitely means native to New Brunswick. I once contacted Ancestry.com about this and they confirmed that they had made a mistake, but that it was too late to change it now! Another issue to be very careful of is that Ancestry has intermingled the 1851 and 1861 censuses on certain pages in the NB censuses. It's helter-skelter and I can't quote exactly which pages and parishes are mixed up, but do your math when referring to those Ancestry transcriptions. One further problem is that some of the census pages have been transcribed horizontally instead of vertically. As a result, Ancestry's quick snapshot of the family members (before you go to the actual census page image) are wrong. You'll have, for example, Joe Smith (head), Alma Campbell (wife), John Smith (son), Mary Campbell (daughter), Thomas Smith (son), Susan Campbell (daughter) etc. Whenever I run across these mistakes, I make a comment on the page in the hopes that other researchers will be made aware of this. It's apparent that Ancestry has no intention of fixing them.

I had the very same question for one family I was researching. When I queried the Canadian Archives this was the answer they sent to me: In reply to your inquiry of 21 June 2010 I wish to advise you that in the 1851 and 1861 census of New Brunswick, for the column Race and Where Born, many entries have the word Native. As you suggested, this refers to the term “native born”, meaning the person was born in the province. It does not mean they were a native Indian (aboriginal). There was no column in those New Brunswick census returns to designate if an individual was aboriginal, so there is no means of knowing if a native born individual was aboriginal. I trust you will find this information helpful.

 I can't agree with you at least regarding my own family.  My Bezansons are frequently  listed as French or German for multiple generations after they arrive here in the Canadian census anyway.  In the U.S census they are listed as to where they are born.  AS I say I can only speak for my family.   Ginny --- On Mon, 4/18/11, R Jorgenson <rpj@shaw.ca> wrote: From: R Jorgenson <rpj@shaw.ca> Subject: Re: [ NB ] 1861 census clarification? To: newbrunswick@rootsweb.com Date: Monday, April 18, 2011, 1:32 PM I believe that while First Nation natives are also born in the area and therefore listed as native on the census, it does not mean that all folks listed as natives on the census are actually First Nation people. They are really referring to two different things. The census is referring to 'native born' residents to distinguish them from immigrants to the area. It is confusing though because the words we use today to refer to our Aboriginal peoples (or First Nation peoples) contains the same word 'native' and used for the same reason. So Native Canadians are likely 'native' to the area but not all folks that are 'native' to the area are Native Canadians. Rosemary -----Original Message----- From: VIRGINIA A.
