During a review of the Dawe surnames transcribed from the records in the Coley's Point Anglican cemetery I noted the following words opposite site#237 quote: " Hemell R.N.R. son of Edmund and the late Jane Hemell of Sandwich Bay Labrador Aug. 29, 1914 25 years 'who answered the call to duty and was striken with brain fever and died at Coley's Point" Site #237 is located between #236, Dawe, Malcom A, Mar. 2, 1916 26 years 6 months Robert Dawe also his father Aug 11,1932 age 83 years and Dawe Rebecca Laura also his mother Sept. 17,1895 83? years.....and...site#238 which records 5 members of the Barrett family 1852-1936. Questions: #1. noting the words 'who answered the call to duty', I wonder if the R.N.R. refers to 'Royal Newfoundland Regiment' rather than personal initials ? #2. What is the present day name for where was than named Sandwich Bay, Labrador? #3. What does the SEARY book say about the surname Hemell? ===== "Life is for sharing, naked we enter, naked we leave" __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Protect your identity with Yahoo!
