Tsumi, a few kind people helped me knock down my "favourite" ancestors' brickwalls.  I'm pleased that aghadowey was able to "start the ball rolling" and that we could help you with yours.  Grin

(I added a note to my previous post: Blenheim is near Caernafon I hope???)
Update: Blenheim was in Ontario, not Wales!  Embarrassed

A....y has Minnie L Stevenson, born 1882, marrying David Samuel McLelland.
Note:  I typed his name incorrect on a previous post and will change it to the proper spelling according to the Homepages site.  Please excuse the error!

The other site shows: McLellan.  I don't know which is the correct spelling: McLellan or McLelland?

McLelland, Minnie
You can view the actual image. ("Split View" near top of page, after you have clicked on her name.)

States she was born in January 1882 in England.
Son, Robert J., born September 1910.

I believe I will stop now, as I've now made two errors.  I'm sure there is more to be found regarding this family.

She was born January 25,1882, this is from the official birth certificate.but she probably said England with her spending most of her young life there,certainly from around three or four years old,according to electoral rolls for her Mother and Father in Liverpool.

Goodness, it's been a busy hour or so since I've been offline Shocked

To clarify one point:
http://homepages.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~maryc/oxfblenh.htm
June 1, 1910
David Samuel McLennan [update: name is McLellan], age 21, Blenheim, and Minnie Stevenson.  Minnie, born Blenheim, Wales, daughter of James Palmer and Hannah Tenance.
[I hope Blenheim is near Caernafon?]
'Blenheim' is the bride's residence in Ontario (groom also residing at Blenheim) and 'Wales' is her birthplace.

Found them in 1911 census- Blenheim Township, Princeton Village, Oxford North, Ontario (Baptist):
David Mc Lelland, born June 1880 Ontario, mason
wife Minnie Mc Lelland, born Jan.1882 England, to Canada 1902
son Robert J. Mc Lelland, born Sept.1910 Ontario

Amelia McLelland (Palmer), buried Princeton (Pioneer Section) Blenheim.

There may be more McClelland's, not taking the time to look (don't want to include anymore typing errors).  Grin

Lisa- just about to post the headstone links but you've beaten me to it. Looks like there's no doubt as headstone gives her name as Amelia Palmer!

Many thanks to you for starting us off on this puzzle!   Grin

I wish we could find Minnie's first child.  I do have to stop looking around now, as I have to get some things done.  Thank you again for finding Minnie.

Good thing you reminded me, Lisa- found William Stevenson (Amelia's son) in 1911 census with grandmother Susan but didn't want to post it until I knew we'd found Amelia.

1911 Census- Woodstock, Oxford North, Ontario (www.automatedgenealogy.com)
William Elstone, wife Susan Elstone, stepson James Stevenson, stepdau. Ethel B. Stevenson, grandson William R. Stevenson.

I wanted to let everyone know that I moved this thread from the US board, as the folks involved wound up being in Canada.  Just so there's no confusion as to why a long thread suddenly popped up here.   Smiley
