Beth, Noticed that you have a Benoni. I've heard that name was used for a son if his father died shortly after his birth which can be a helpful clue sometimes. Had always wondered about mine as it sounded Italian to me. My Perry's that were born in VT had originally been Pare (with the french accent on E) coming down from Quebec and given English spelling by Census taker I guess. Mine contunued down to Mass. and later generations never knew of the French origin. So I guess our Perry's went in opposite directions.

Hi all, I've been hunting for info on an Quebec ancestor from the Lennoxville area named James Kerr that enlisted in the civil war. I don't know his regiment but I found one listing on ancestry.com in the pension records, images online that might be his. It gives application and certificate numbers and I am hoping there is a way to track those? What it says: Kerr, James; Widow Kerr, Catharine M. Under Service it says: D. 5 Marine Inf. Date of filing: 1879 Dec 10 application number 325.182 and certificate number of 233.467 Date: 1886? Widow applied # 351.879, certificate # 265.322; under state from which filed it says CANADA. Any idea where I would go to pull those application and certificate numbers?

I am looking for descendants of Matthew COX born in Ireland about 1825. His children were: John, born 1854 in PQ Canada Matthew, born 1856 in PQ Canada Terrence, born 1858 in PQ Canada Rosie, born 1861 in PQ Canada James, born 1863 in PQ Canada Ann Marie, born 1865 in PQ Canada Philip Henry, born 1874 in PQ Canada This family is listed in the 1881 Canada census as being Catholic.

Jackie, Thanks so much for posting the website. I am sure that this is the Isabel Morrill that is mentioned in many letters I have from my ggg-aunt, Mary Lee Morrill who lived in Stanstead to her brother who lived in NY. Isabel lived in Mary's home in the 1840's and was helping her with the children. She was most likely a cousin to Mary's husband, Benjamin Thrasher Morrill. It was fun to see what she looked like and also to read the history about her later in life!! Thanks again Susan Brown

http://web.idirect.com/~rburnet/index.html Listers, sorry I don't know why the links ran together like that. I copied them on separate lines. Oh well, I'll try again, with only the main link. The agent's genealogical index is interesting. Just click the province of interest to start, but check every province. Apparently railway workers and agents often travelled around the country working different stations. I started with Quebec, but was interested to see POPEs and MACAULAYs in other provinces. I found no MATHESONs, but I think this site offers some possibilities with a-mail links and page links to some of the people listed. Sharon

My grandfather and uncles, MATHESON FAMILY,from Lac Megantic worked almost exclusively on the railroads in Quebec during the 1920's through 1940's. My uncle Norman,Donald, or Jack, ( I'm not sure which one) was killed in a railway accident. Another uncle lost his leg in the same or possibly a different accident. Railway Canada and the Archives both have some interesting info, but I want to find the names of what railroad companies were in the townships during those times, and I wonder how or if employment and accident records are available. My search so far indicates that the railways were a prime employer of Scots, out of the Scotstown area, and that accident and death were frequent occurrences. Any info or suggestions will be appreciated? I wonder if there was an association of some sort, possibly with a newsletter to members. Thanks, Sharon Matheson

Hi, does anyone out there know a place called Island Brook in Quebec. Thanks. Susi

The 1825 & 1831 censuses can be 'improved' by the following equations [which were developed by Jay Mack Holbrook in his 15 page 1976 demographic study of Ascott's 1825 census results. He has over 20 equations that he used to check the data.] The key fact is that females under 14 [f<14] are counted twice because they are also included in the children under 6 [c<6] and children 6 to 13 [c 6-13] categories. These children categories include both sexes, unidentified. Males under 14: [m<14] = [[c<6] + [c 6-13]] - [f<14] Males under 18: [m<18] = [total in family] - [sum of all male and female age categories] Males 14 to 17: [m 14-17] = [m<18] - [m<14] Females under 18: [f<18] = [sum of the 3 children categories under 17] - [m<18] Females 14 to 17: [f 14 - 17] = [f<18] - [f<14] One basic accuracy check is to compare the family total to the sum of all categories, omitting the [f<14] figure. When loading census data into a spreadsheet with the above equations, I sometimes come up with a negative figure in a calculated category, which indicates a recording error by someone. Have fun, Mat. P.S. I have submitted Jay Holbrook's scanned data sheets to Pam Wood Waugh for inclusion in her site, but she is having a problem formatting the scanned .doc. If anyone wants the 1825 Ascot data, I will send it on request. It is a 23KB Word .doc of 4 pages. Both Jay and I have cleaned up the data somewhat. I spotted some name errors. I have copies of the very poor microfilm images.

Hi Bonny: According to the book "Census Returns 1666-1891" published by Public Archives Canada (Now the National Archives) in 1987 these are their film numbers for censuses for Durham (counties in brackets): Durham [Buckinghamshire] 1825 C-717 Durham [Drummond] 1831 C-723 1851 C-1120 - Personal census missing 1861 C-1278 (Personal) 1861 C-1279 (Agricultural) 1871 C-10084 Durham [Drummond & Arthabaska] 1891 T-6393 Durham South [Drummond] 1871 C-11084 Durham South [Drummond & Arthabaska] 1881 C-13197 1891 T-6393 Hope this helps, Susan > Date: Sun, 10 Dec 2000 22:09:51 -0700 > From: "Bonnie Robillard" <barny@telusplanet.net> > To: QC-ETANGLO-L@rootsweb.com > Subject: [QC-ETANGLO] Durham 1825 Census > > My Thomas Martin of Shipton was not in the Shipton Census of 1825, > but he > married prior to that Census and probably moved on to his wife > Sarah's > Durham by then.

The Stewart Clan Magazine was made up of monthly pamphlets edited and published between 1922-1970 by a George T Edson of Olathe Kansas containing information on the various Stewart clans. These were organised into TOMES, A - J with each tomes holding 5 years worth of issues. I am looking for information contained in A163 which is in TOME A, Vol IV, No 4 Oct 1925 - re Claud Stewart VT 1790s/Scot 1711 Anyone able to look this up for me? Much appreciated Janice Lodge

My Thomas Martin of Shipton was not in the Shipton Census of 1825, but he married prior to that Census and probably moved on to his wife Sarah's Durham by then. They were members of St. George's Church in Drummondville where they were married, but I think the Cummings family lived in Kirkdale. Was there an 1825 Census for Durham? What other Census's were there? Thanks. Bonny
