Hi, My dad's uncle Stanley wrote Niles Corner for birthplace when he crossed the border to the US in 1924. He was born in 1905. I don't have a birth certificate, and I can't find the family in the 1901 census so I have no idea if it's in Canada or the US. His parents married in Ontario in 1896 and they're in the 1911 census. They're names are Stephen Clark and Margaret Villneff. thanks, Sheri

Hi Pamela: It is such an unusual surname, and the three I sent to you were not related... well at least they did not have the same parents. Perhaps you might want to contact the following who are the only ones listed for all of Canada on Canada411. Trestrail, Dale & Barbara 110 Claremont Lane Amherstburg, ON N9V 2Y8 (519) 736-9994 Trestrail, E 235 Etree Way Mississauga, ON (905) 271-5354 Trestrail, I 3 Jubilee Cres North York, ON M9M 1L4 (416) 749-5335 Trestrail, R 112 Delaware Ave Toronto, ON M6H 2T1 (416) 539-0464 Trestrail, S 7 Ruthven Cres Alliston, ON L9R 0A5 (705) 435-3206 ..... I wish I could find some people to send pics to. My children show little interest, my siblings are trying to dispose of theirs as well. All those "Kodak moments" are looking for a warehouse! At present I am dividing up over 100 years of photos so my family each get plenty and then some to all of the nieces and nephews... who will say "ummmm, gee... thanks ? " Cheers!

Hi Pamela: That surname does not appear in the Canada Census of 1881, 1901 or 1911, however the following info might help your searches. These two deaths are registered in Ontario within Ancestry's range of 1869-1932: Mary Anderson Trestrail born abt 1870 - Topeka, KS died 27 Dec 1927 York Susan Trestrail born abt 1894 USA, died 15 Mar 1931 York These three marriages are registered in Ontario within Ancestry's range of 1857-1922 : Burdick Anderson Trestrail born abt 1891 - Kansas City, m. 20 Jun 1921 to Marie Margaret Gibson - York Richard Trestrail born abt 1892 - Cornwall England m. 16 Aug 1916 to Bessie Elizabeth Langlois - Essex William Joseph Trestrail born abt 1888 - Iron Mountain, Michigan m. 1 Jul 1913 to Myrttle Floyd Benedict - Sudbury None of the above marriages would have borne children within the Ancestry.ca's range of 1869-1907.

Anyone researching the Trestrail Family of Toronto, please contact me. Cheers Pamela Daly

If you have any cemetery or any other references I would appreciate a lookup. Anything will help. I am looking for the resting place for Huge and Bridget Curley. The only place I have proof of them is in 1851 Chinquacousy Census, Peel Co., ONtario. They were living with their son THomas and daughter in law Susanna Everson Curley. I believe that they were catholic. I have additional notes below. Any help is extremly appreciated. Thanks deb RAOGK Volunteer for Monroe Co., MI I have Huge/Hue/Hugh Curley b. about 1794 in Taum, Galway, Ireland. His wife was Bridget b. about 1802 also in the Taum area. Their son Thomas H. Curley was born in 1827 in Ireland. I am not sure when they came to Canada but I suspect it was by 1832. I can't be sure about this. Thomas married in Canada to Susanna Everson in about 1849. The 1851 Chinquacousy Census, Peel Co., Ontario shows Thomas and Susanna have Thomas's parents, Huge and Bridget living with them. I have been trying for years to find out what ever happened to Thomas's parents Hugh and Bridget Curley. I am looking for their place of death, burial, anything. Thomas and his father Hugh were both stone masons (bricklayers). Eventualy Thomas moved down to Michigan to do some brick work and liked it so much that He and his wife moved down to Michigan. Thomas died in 1877. Will gladly share any info with others in this line. Thanks, debbie Additional notes from my Genealogy program: Thomas H. /Curley/ Thomas Curley was born in Ireland and came to Canada and married there. Thomas and wife Susanna moved to Michigan about 1853 or 1854. Records show that Thomas and Susanna were living in Chinquacousy Township, Ontario, Canada in 1851. Later records show that Thomas and Susanna were living in Paisly, Bruce Co., Ontario in 1865 when they signed papers to quit-claim Susanna interest in the estate of her father. (info from Carl Everson) The 1851 Chinquacousy Census, District 4 page 199 shows that Thomas and Susanna also have Thomas's parents in the house, Bridget and Hugh. There is also a boy named Francis Matdam (or Madden) born in Ireland that is only 10 years old living with them. I have no idea who this boy is. It also shows that Thomas and his father are both masons, and that they all live in a frame house that is 1 1/2 stories. Thomas came over to Mi. with Robert Fitch. He was a mason and helped build the Catholic Church in Emmett, MI. After living in the Emmett area to work on the church , he decided to move to Emmett and built a house 4 1/8 miles east of Marlette. Thomas is buried in McLeish Cemetery in Marlette, MI. (Section 21), Decker Rd. South of walker Rd and the cemetery is owned ***********

Marg in Sunny Thank you very much. I just can't put my hand on my copy. Peggy Large UE "I'd rather die while I'm living than live while I'm dead" thanks to Jimmy Buffett!

If anyone has the resource and time I have a copy of the death registration of Christine Hedley (wife of Thomas) in Hamilton 17 July 1924. I can't find it and just need to know the name you listed for her mother. Much appreciated. Peggy Large UE "I'd rather die while I'm living than live while I'm dead" thanks to Jimmy Buffett!

That might depend on her religion. If she were Catholic it is likely that her Church would have arranged for the burial and she could have been buried at St. Michael's or Mount Hope - more likely the latter.

Re old listings: My father has been dead for 29 years. We still get mail addressees to him. Even though no listings of him show up on any current records. LOL My business has "& Son" in it's name. Now that my nephew is working with us part time I'm just waiting for somebody to say to him "Oh you must be the Son". He's the great-grand son! Then when I say we started out in 62, I have to explain that means 1862 not 1962. Some people still use very old databases even in this age. Fortunately I work with very old things to begin with (church pipe organs) so most people clue in rather quickly that I really am 151 years old. My creaky knees give my age away. Nelson

Sadly, they are not.

No problem Glen, good luck. Many women never changed their telephones listings (and other utilities) from their husbands names as that could only be be changed with a change of billing and that was classified as a change of responsibility and at one time was charged for. The majority just left things as it was. Jackie Jackie Glen Johnson wrote: >Thanks, that was merely intended as a caution. I have all my dates from >then.

Are the gravestones for Mount Pleasant Cemetery online? Niagara Falls has 4 cemeteries online - a super resource http://www.niagarafalls.ca/city_hall/departments/parks_recreation_and_culture/cemetery/genealogy/index.asp Have fun GAIL

Glen et al, Telephone Books and City Directories are 2 different (re)sources. The City Directory should list the survivor eg Smith, Jane (wid George) r 156 Street (may give occupation if working) There also maybe other Smith's living at the same address? Send a separate request for that given & surname. Hope this helps GAIL

I've been seriously researching various branches of my family for some years now. I've tried to help folks, and also asked for help - like you do, but I am absolutely stunned at the responses I've had from this list in a matter of hours. Today, I've downloaded yet another fantastic email from Robin, this one is a photo of Jane and Sidney Biggs' gravestone in Mount Pleasant cemetery. Jane died before Sidney - all the dates are there... amazing. May I publicly thank Robin for this true 'hands across the ocean', plus Doreen for her super suggestions and look ups, and Gail and Glen for their contributions earlier today. I'm not usually stuck for words, but you are all super - Thank You! Many, many thanks, Ruth in Brum - where it has stopped raining so the dogs could go out, but it will be back.... P.S. Finished the last Harry Potter a wee while ago - it's brilliant.
