Opinion wanted
« on: Friday 21 September 07 22:18 BST (UK) »
This is bugging me big time...anyone who has Ancestry.Ca and feels like rendering an opinion...go to the Drouin Collection (Quebec vital records); Montreal; Congregational Pointe St Charles; 1914. Have a look at Page 5 (of 23), which is Folio five, and then turn over to Page 6, which is Folio six...and tell me if you think THERE IS A PAGE MISSING!!! Sorry, sorry...I'm just a leetle bit overworked about this Grin

The entries go from the tenth day of April to the third day of May. Not a big deal unless you know that a possible great-grandmother died on the 17th of April...and this is the church that buried her husband the year before. I can't find her in any of the other church registers.

The way Folio 6 starts is very strange, a few lines down the page and no capital letter...but the entry itself seems to be complete.

So, I solicit your opinions, surmises and wild guesses...anything at all Grin

Cheers,
China

I don't have access to Ancestry.ca, but apparently you're not the only one that has noticed this.
