ACKUS, ARMSTRONG, BOWLES & BARNSLEY in Stirling, Ontario
« on: Friday 11 November 05 13:49 GMT (UK) »
When my uncle made his will in 1956, he left legacies to Mrs June Ackus, Mrs Gladys Armstrong, Amy Bowles and Pamela Barnsley - all in Stirling Ontario.

I would like to find out whether these are family members.

Can anyone suggest how I might find out who these people are?

Stirling is a very small town in eastern Ontario. I'd write to the local library and tell them the details and ask if they can help. They should have phone books, they might even know someone still in Stirling who's related.

Stirling Public Library
43 West Front Street
Stirling, Ontario
(613) 395-2837

Since it's such a small town, why not check current phone books online and see ifthere are any families still living there with those surnames?

Thanks for the suggestions.

I've tried the online phone books - but no success.
