Hi Ruth of Redwater, AB: My grandmother, Florence Maud PETERS (b. 1897) was also from England, came to Canada in 1920's from London. Father was Henry Joseph PETERS and mother was Hannah SMITH, may have had a sister "Edie". All of Kensington/Paddington area. Do you have any connection or have you heard from anyone that may be connected? Thanks VERY much for any lead.

I also am researching the Peters in N.B. The Peters I am pursuing came to Canada from England in or about 1830. They settled in Kent County N.B. They were Henry Peters and his wife Mary (Standing) There were a number of children from this marriage. One in particular a son, Henry Peters, who married Rowena Atkinson. Rowenas nephew, Horatio Atkinson also married Rachel Peters. No confirmation but I do believe she is also a child of Henry and Mary. Differing family info has me confused and nothing to verify yet. Horatio and Rachel were my gr gr grandparents. The Marsh name intrigues me. A brother to Horatio above, Robert Atkinson, married an Eleanor Marsh "Nellie" Warman. I don't know her parentage but the name Marsh is of note. Unfortunately, I lost my harddrive a few weeks ago and have to rely on an outdated copy of my database and don't have all the info I had before. If you think any of this jives with your family then let me now and I can make up some reports or a ged file for you.
