    1. [NS-L] shiplist from NS
    2. Christy

    3. Hello, I have a copy of a ship list my ancestor is on going from Horton Nova Scotia to Boston on the Albatros. The year is about 1860. It says the country they belong to is NS and where they intend to inhabit is U.S. Does that mean for sure they were going there to live or still could just be a visit does anyone know? Thanks, Christy /listinfo/nsroots

    3. Hi Bob, No *what*? Are you responding to: "Does that mean for sure they were going there to live" or to "Does that mean ... could just be a visit" Or perhaps you mean that no, nobody knows, which is perhaps the most likely answer.

    1. [NS-L] Emma Louise CUNNINGHAM

    3. In 1926 Miss EmmaLouise Cunningham - born 1867 to William, a tailor, and Annie - returned to her native Nova Scotia after 20 years in Picton, Ontario. She had been a member of the Tennyson Club there for 15 years, and was its secretary for the last 10 years. Unfortunately, when she left she took her minute book with her. One year later her sister, Mrs. Margaret Silver, provided the information required for her death certificate. Her only known occupation was as deacon at the Picton Methodist church. Perhaps she didn't need a job, as her father became a clothing manufacturer. Now we are writing a history of the Club ? it was founded in 1902 ? but of course there is a yawning gap in the records. We would dearly love to have that minute book back. If anyone knows anything AT ALL about this lady or the book (even that it was destroyed), PLEASE contact John Moore at 613-393-5771 or [email protected] or 489 Island Road, RR1, Picton, Ontario K0K 2T0. Regards, John Moore
