Hi Susan that info is brilliant I'll try to bring those documents up. David's Loan sounds just right and I'll check it out on the census.

Hi Jacqui, by the way I love your 'mornings are futile' logo !! The info is so helpful, 1954 is probably around the last time I saw Nancy and Isobel, there was never any talk that I heard about them having married. Thornhill Road sounds right and I'll check the census.I need to put more time into immigration/emigration records the main effort has been going into finding birth/marriage/death certs so far and there are so many of them !! I sometimes think the women were permanently pregnant.

Im hoping this is received by the right person. I am the daughter of Nancy mc fadden,i regret to say she passed away may 17/14 a few months back. She was residing in Thunder Bay ontario and was recently diagnosed with cancer. Her sister Isobel was the dance instructor and still taught on and off until recently, she goes by Isobel mahar now and lives in victoria bc.  I am one of 3 children   And Isobel never had children. Isobel is in good health and doing well  :)
