Hullo List, I am searching for William Edgar who migrated from Maybole, Ayrshire, Scotland abt 1862, to Ontario being on the 1871 Federal Census of 1871 (Ontario Index) age 22. which says he was a Stray: but other information is the same as ArchiviaNet - Index to the 1871 Census of Ontario, hopefully he is my ancestor. If I knew who he was staying with at the time I would have a better chance to locate him. Could you please tell me when the next census' were available. Many tks.

The Auld Hoose [Image] O, the auld hoose, the auld hoose, What tho' the rooms were wee, O, kind hearts were dwelling there, And bairnies fu' o' glee. And wild rose and the jassamine Still hang upon the wa Hoo mony cherished memories Do they sweet flow'rs reca'. O, the auld Laird, the auld Laird Sae canty, kind and crouse. Hoo mony did he welcome there, His ain wee dear auld hoose. And the leddy, too, sae genty, There shelter'd Scotland's heir, An' clipt a lock wi' her ain han' Frae his long yellow hair. The mavis still doth sweetly sing, The bluebells sweetly blaw. The bonnie Earn's clear winding still, But the auld hoose is awa'. The auld hoose, the auld hoose Deserted tho' ye be, There ne'er can be a new hoose, Will seem sae fair to me. Still flourishing the auld pear tree The bairnies liked to see. And oh, hoo often did they spier When ripe they a' wad be? The voices sweet, the wee bit feet Aye rinnin' here and there. The merry shouts oh, whiles we greet To think we'll hear nae mair. Carolina Oliphant, (Lady Nairne), 1766-1845

Actually..... it would have to be this guy.... he was listed as a carpenter in the 1871 census too. The 1871 census lists this same guy as born in Scotland. Half of my relatives are listed as born in ON when they were actually born in Quebec, Scotland and Ireland so the Ontario birth would just have been a mistake.

Sorry it's taken so long but here are a few McPhail surnames listed in the Thurso Cemetery, Lochaber, Ottawa Co, Quebec. Sarah E. McPhail died Feb 21, 1864 3 months, 8 days daughter of M and E McPail Samual David McPhail died Feb 11 1902 aged 35 years, 8 mon., 2 days. Mathew McPhail died Mar 31, 1911 aged 89 years, 11 months. 17 days his wife Eleanor Faringer died Apr 9, 1920 aged 87 years, 4 mons, 28 days James Edward McPhail born June 19, 1877 died July 13, 1877 The only record I've noticed with the McPhail name so far is the one that was originally posted.

Watts' Sent: Friday, January 31, 2003 12:55 PM Subject: RE: Improvement to 1906 access. Mr. Watts We are currently working toward improving the Census of the Northwest Provinces, 1906 website. Included in our upcoming enhancements are the addition of the Index maps from the Electoral Atlas for the provinces of the Northwest Territories (Sask. and Manitoba) and Alberta. These Index maps will be manipulated to include important meridians and district number. A legend including district numbers and district names will also appear on the maps. Another project currently being undertaken is the addition of a Postal Address field in our 1906 database. This field will allow researcher access by a geographic locator (i.e. in most cases the name of a town). These additions will be available in phase II of the 1906 Census project which is scheduled to be completed in April 2003. I trust these improvements will greatly improve accessibility to the Census records.

Watts [mailto:gordon_watts@telus.net] Envoyé : 30 janvier, 2003 17:27 À : Gabrielle Blais Objet : Improvement to 1906 access. Hi Gabrielle. I would like to pass on to you something that I would think could improve the access to the 1906 Census records. My suggestion is based on some limited personal experience once the receipt of email resulting from last Fridays announcement died down, and on comments I have received, and seen on various mail lists, from those having difficulty in finding their way around the website. For those familiar to the range and township arrangement, or those living in the districts and sub-districts in which they seek information, the existing electoral maps are useful and relatively easy to understand. I particularly like the fact that putting the cursor over a number in the district map brings up a description box. For those who are researching from afar, without knowledge of the area things are somewhat more difficult. What is lacking for the 1906 web pages, and something that I personally would find useful and desireable, is a Provincial map showing a pictorial layout of the districts. It need not be fancy or detailed, just something to show the relative positions of the Districts within the Province. The existing Provincial links could access the Provincial map, and a link provided within each District on the Provincial map could connect to the current District and Sub-district maps. The lack of such a map, and the lack of knowledge on my part regarding the layout of the Districts within the Province of Saskatchewan caused me to use the better part of an hour to find where Weyburn might be found in the Census records. The name of the District does not always give a clue as to the relative location of the District within the Province, and in fact can be misleading. For example, in Saskatchewan, you (or I, at least) would expect East Assiniboia and West Assiniboia districts to be adjacent. This is not the case, however, as they are separated by the Qu'Appelle District. The current descriptive text descriptions are useful, but not particularly user friendly, and the website would be vastly improved (in my opinion) by the addition of the provincial maps suggested. There is one other thing you might be able to help me with. I use 17" monitor on my computer with a higher resolution than the standard VGA or SVGA resolutions. As such, images coming in are somewhat smaller than I would like. I have discovered how to increase the frame size of the Mr. Sid viewer and I set the custom parameters for that such that I can get an image that is close to full screen. The problem is that for every image that I wish to view, I must go through the routine of changing the frame size all over again. Do you know if there is any way that I can set my custom frame size as a default so that it remains the size I want without having to set it up for each and every image that I download for viewing. Anything you might suggest would be appreciated. Take care. Gordon

Greetings All. Since the release of the 1906 Census of the Northwest Provinces on 26 January many people have been having problems navigating the Census pages. From the messages I see posted to the various mail lists, and those sent to me directly, it is obvious to me that many people anxious to find their relatives are diving straight into the database without first reading the Introduction, or the information provided on the opening page of the Census Districts and Maps. I strongly suggest everyone seeking their ancestors in the 1906 Census read the information on those pages and you will likely find many of your questions answered before you ask them. The descriptions of the various sub-districts are useful, but are not particularly user friendly. I have contacted the people in charge of the 1906 Census, suggesting some things that would improve the navigation of the 1906 Census. I have received a response to my suggestions and I will copy my letter, and the response received, in another posting. Until then I copy here a number of tips to help you navigate the Census pages. To begin with, as has been stated many times, the 1906 Census of the Northwest Provinces was a Census of the Provinces of Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba ONLY. Those seeking information information in other provinces will have to refer to the online 1901 Census, or wait for the 1911 National Census of Canada. We expect that the 1911 should be available by the end of 2003. The District and sub-district descriptions make reference to Township and Range numbers. This is fine for those familiar with these designations, more particularly those who live in the areas described, but is difficult for those researching from afar. Garth Ulrich, Canada Census Committee for Saskatchewan suggests that a place to start your search is to first find the township and range numbers of a post office for the town of interest, or one that is nearby. To do this, access the ArchiviaNet website for "Post Offices and Postmasters" at the following URL: http://www.archives.ca/02/020109_e.html Click "Search the Database" and input such information as you have available and click "Submit Query". For example, for a search of my own I input "Fairmount" in the "Office Name:" window, and "Saskatchewan" in the "Province" window. On clicking "Submit Query", a new page opened with one postal station listed. If there is no postal station for the place selected, you will get either a page stating nothing was found for your query, or a listing of several postal stations near the area sought. Click on the icon to the left of the postal station of interest. In the case of my own search, there was only one option provided. At the bottom of the page listing the postmasters is a section for "Additional Information". Here you will find the location description. For my search it showed "Sec. 22, Twp. 28, R.24, W3". The section number can be ignore as it plays no part in navigating the Census pages. Return to the Search page for the 1906 Census at: http://www.archives.ca/02/02015302_e.html Click on "Census Districts and Maps", then on the link for the Province of interest. On the resultant page scroll down the page seeking to match the desciption found for the postal station. To speed your search, look for the township, range, and meridian information in reverse order, i.e. in the case of my search W3 indicates that the location is West of the Third Meridian. The W3 was the easiest part of the description to find. In my search for Saskatchewan I found the sub-district description "Townships 19 to 34 inclusive in ranges 21 to 28 inclusive, and fractional Townships 19 to 34 in range 29, all west of the 3rd M". To the left of this description was the "sub-district" number "13". Scrolling up to the top of the section I found the "District" number and name of "12 - Assiniboia West". I now had the information needed to input on the Census search page, i.e. Province: Saskatchewan District Name: Assiniboia West Distric Number: 12 Sub-district Number: 13 Submitting my query with these parameters I came up with three pages of names for this Census. This was the area of my grandparents homestead. Their names did not appear on these Census pages so I now know that they did not come here until sometime after the Census of 1906 was taken. Now I must wait until the release of the 1911 Census to find them there. Some additional information. I found it useful to have a roadmap handy to find the relative position of the place I sought in the Province. There are seven major Meridians defined, the first (or principal or prime) meridian was established on the international border, near Emerson, Manitoba, at longitude 97° 27' 28'' W (of Greenwich). Meridians number east to west at consistent intervals. A location description that includes "W3M" or "W3" indicates that it is west of the third meridian. Ranges number east to west, referenced from the first meridian to the east, i.e. Range 24 is the 24th range west of the refenced meridian. Townships are 36 square miles in size and number south to north from the Canada - US border. Townships are square with sides of 6 miles in length so it is possible from the range and township numbers to estimate relative distances from the referencing meridian and the 49th Parallel. Improvements to make searching the Census pages easier are on the way, but in the meantime I hope the suggestions here will help researchers. Happy Hunting. Gordon A.

Greetings All. I have received from Gabrielle Blais of the National Archives the following list of libraries and archives to which microfilm of the 1906 Census of the Northwest Provinces have been sent. A number of other institutions have ordered films but as they have gone through a third party supplier they are unknown at this time. Happy Hunting. Gordon A.

This may not be the reason you were unable to access some of the records you mention in your e-mail, but I understand from a friend who is a webmaster there are problems in reading java script with one of the popular browsers.
