HI Bill, Thank you for the story, they are the things that make genealogy so interesting. Let me tell the story of another watch. A few years ago I discovered the address of my great Uncle's daughter in Andover, MA. She is now 93. Three or four times a year I would visit and still do. On about the third visit she told me the story of my grandfather's brother Uncle Eddie. He died in his 40's but what an interesting life Edward Mercier had. He became blind when in his 20's or 30's the result of sylphilis I'm told. He was before antibiotics remember. Handsome debonair man he was he went on with life and worked in the Broom factory that the blind had for income for the blind. Remember the brooms they took around door to door and sold? Anyway she pulls out a writs watch whcih she says she supposeds isn't worth much but wondered if I could get it repaired. I told her I knew a man in Candia who did repairs and brought it home. It wasa beautiful watch which he had given to the kind woman who took him into her home and let him board there. Her daughter took the watch when she died and so my great Uncle George asked her could he have it, she sold it to him. I just hung around and came from his estate to his daughters till I was shown the piece and asked did I think it could be repaired. The watch repairman said it was a 17 jewel watch and white gold with an intricate design. He cleaned it and it ran fine. The jewels were rubies and emeralds, very tiny but he took the back off and showed me each one. I never knew what they meant when they said 15 jewel watch and that there were really jewels. He told me that he had to ask a friend to clean it because he no longer had the tools to do it. I forgot to mention he was very french and had retired to live in Candia near his children and did mostly clocks, coo-coo clocks. Anyway I paid to have it repaired and returned it with great longing for ownership because again it is a part of the family and I no had the story. When I gave her the watch I was thinking how I could have been a theif and taken it and never gone back but she had trusted me and the happiness she had made me feel good. She started talking about how she and Uncle Eddie were republicans in Massachusetts when it wasn't a very big party. How she became the secretaruy and he ran for the Senate and nearly won. So for a simple kindness I gained a beautiful relative friend and store of historical stories about the family lost to each other through their mother's death in 1894.

It could have gone through many hands since 1920. I just inherited two watches one of which is a man's gold retirement watch. This I know was my great uncle's who died in 1935. His wife had already died and they had no children. He gave it to his sister, my grandmother. When she died it went to my aunt. when she died it went to my cousin. She just died and I inherited it. I took it to a jeweler to see what I could find out about it. It seems it is not gold but rather gold filled and he told me most of those retirement watches were gold filled and are now not worth much on the market. Also it was pretty much beyond repair, I could have it cleaned but it would probably not work very well again. I am keeping it because it has sentimental value to me and I have it in a little glass case on my bureau. The other watch I inherited was a womens gold pocket watch that was my aunt's. The jeweler said that this one was real gold and in good working order (just needs a cleaning). He put a retail value on it at about $1500. We will do this and someone in the family will get it to wear on a chain. Problem is who. Your watch might have also had a circuitous life. Let us hope that it hasn't been thrown away by someone who said what am I doing holding on to this old thing or someone who pawned it for a few bucks. Good luck to you in your search as I know it holds much sentimental value to you.

Please can some one try to help me. I have traced a George L JOHNSON with wife Roxanna ______ to 1850. Roxanna was born in French Canada. In 1850 at the age of 38 she is married and living in Black Brook Clinton CO NY It appears on the map it is very near Canada. If I were seeking in French Canada would Quebec be the correct place? Is there a history web or genealogy page for this area? Were would a person find a marriage reocord about 1833. First daughter Lucinda Johnson born in Canada in 1834. I never have searched any area in Canada so I need all the tibs you want to send. Thank you so much. My great grandpa from England served on the Canadian Engineer Expeditionary Force in 1917.

I have received several messages by those receiving the letter from the Information Commissioner's office regarding his legal action on our behalf. Those contacting me wish to know what is involved should they seek to be a party to the Application of the Information Commissioner. I have contacted the General Counsel, Daniel Brunet, and received the following information from him. The form letter that accompanied the letter sent by Mr. Brunet is to satisfy a legal requirement that complainants be notified of the Application for review, and for them to be given the opportunity to participate in the Application should they so choose. The form should be completed and returned ASAP. Anyone wishing to be a party to the Application would be doing so as an 'intervenor' to the action and as such would be required to put forth their own submissions, testimony and arguments, and to provide their own legal counsel. Essentially, all testimony, submissions and arguments would be done in writing, and by affidavit etc. There would however, be a hearing at which final oral arguments etc. would be heard. The hearing would be open to the public and Mr. Brunet stated he would advise us in advance as to when it would take place. The hearing will be held in Ottawa. Those taking part in the Application would do so at their own expense. That would include transportation, accomodation, food and the cost of any legal counsel. In the end run, the cost to anyone wishing to participate as a party to the Application could be considerable. You could not expect reimbursement by the government for any part of expenses incurred. Mr. Brunet indicated that the 'Litigation' folder on the Information Commissioner's website, mentioned in my earlier post, should be online by sometime next week. Information on the progress of the Application by the Information Commissioner will be available there. My thanks to all who have contacted Mr. Brunet themselves and provided information they received from him. Happy Hunting. Gordon A.

Hi all I know this is a Quebec list but I've seen a few marriages shown for New Brunswick so I'm hoping someone can help me. I'm looking for the marriage of Andrew Cameron & Elizabeth McPhee said to have taken place in Miramichi/Newcastle in 1864. Most likely Catholic. Andrew Cameron was born in Quebec according to the 1871 census(he died before the 1881) so if anyone has a spare Andrew that they don't know where he went to, let me know. Thanks. Gina Smith

The pertinent sections of that letter state: "I write this letter to inform you that on November 9, 2004 the Information Commissioner of Canada filed an application for review under the Federal Court Rules. This application, filed in the Federal Court as T-1996-04, relates to the refusal by the head of Statistics Canada (the Minister of Industry) to disclose the records you requested unde the Access to Information Act." "On November 29, 2004, the Federal Court directed that this notice of application be amended to include the matter of the refusal to disclose the 1911 census records to 95 other individuals who had complained to the Information Commissioner of Canada between July 7, 2003 and October 5, 2004." It is expected that the other 95 complainants will be receiving similar letters although as I write this I have not yet received my own. The letter also advises that complainants may appear as a party in the case but anyone choosing to do so would be required to pay their own expenses. A form letter was included for complainants to advise whether or not they wished to participate in the Application. Those receiving such letters should complete and return them as soon as possible. The letter also indicates that on the website of the Information Commissioner (www.infocom.gc.ca) there will soon be a folder added entitled "Litigation" which will contain information concerning the various stages of the proceeding, including the Information Commissioner's representations and affidavit and documentary evidence.

Dear Fellow Researchers: This evening I received the message quoted verbatum my signature below, from a gentleman in Belgium who has undertaken a very noble task as explained thoroughly in his message. Because I had not heard of his worthy project on any of the Mailing Lists I administer or subscribe to I asked him if he wanted me to announce his project to several mailing lists across Canada. Johan responded saying that yes he would like the word to be passed......but he added one caveat. He is currently backlogged with requests from other commonwealth countries and a delay should be expected. His is a very generous offer and I am sure most researchers would agree, his efforts are very commendable. Please direct all queries to Johan at his address at the bottom of his message below.

If you have any relative who fought in my country during the WW1, I would be glad the locate him and sent you a picture of his headstone. This is free of charge.( For searches and pictures in France ask for details). The only thing I would like in return is his picture. Why? If the picture is of good quality then I plastify it and place it next to the headstone.

Hi Harriet; This doesn't provide you with the answer to your question. But it might help. From the 1870 census in the Town of Essex, Chittenden County, Vermont, page 56b, series M593, roll 1618, part 1, I have : Joseph Cady, 23, male, white, farm labor, value of personal holdings $175., born in Canada, cannot read or write; Almire Cady, 21, female, white, keeping house, born in Vermont; Esther Cady, 2, female, white, born in Vermont; Franki Cady, 1/12, male, white, born in Vermont. This Joseph was not a RR engineer, but he probably went to work for the RR later on. The Cady/Lemay wedding was not listed in the Vermont Vital statistics reels that we have in Montreal. But, I should say that before about 1875, the information compiled was hit ot miss at best. Many bmd's were not recorded in any central point. Frank

Hello Juliet I dont seem to be in luck to find your Clara Poinsonneault birth in Trois-Rivieres. I have gone through all available baptism repertoires in the region Trois-Rivières, Cap de la Madeleine Pointe du Lac Champlain Batiscan and on the south shore for St-Grégoire and St-Célestin. The earliest Pinsonneault - and or Poinsonneault- birth is in any of these repertoires 1896. So there was no established Pinsonneault family in the area prior to such date. Now if you are really convinced that the baptism took place in Trois-Rivières, what are your sources. and pls let me know so I could try again. Des.
