Hi jj,

Yes, I am back !!!  Those Inchs and Runnalls are hiding again.  I have had more notes given to me and more loose ends to tie up.

Thanks for all your help once again.  It is bedtime here , but I will be up early to check all your links tomorrow.

Thanks again.

Why is this another family not on the 1851?!! How frustrating!

It looks as though some "Wheeler's" lived in the Pickering and Ajax area. Here is a site that mentions some in later years.

Here are more Wheeler's in 1891

Blimey

I wake up and find all of this !!!

Thank you so much Janice and JJ,

I have taken q very qucik look down through, but had to stop and thank you.

I have contact with Kenneth b, he is a 'cousin', in OZ., through the Inch line.  His ggg grandfather ( Paul Inch ) and ny gggg grandmother ( Philippa Inch ) were brother and sister. ( there were 12 children in total ........yes 12 Inchs !!!!!!)

I have 14 pages of the descendency of his line, but only 18 lines on the descendency of the Silas Inch ( another of the 12 ) descendency, hence the postings.....I am trying to find with your generous help, more about Silas and his family, in Canada.  Philippa is one of his daughters, the Wheeler children, his grandchildren.

I am going to visit the links and search for them now.

A very big thank you, I really appreciate your help and cannot thank you enough.

Only free for a little while longer....Left hot link gives info....right one to the image...You'll need to use some of the info to find the second part of the image....( note that what they call page number is in brackets to take you to personal information, and you need to look at the next number for the detailed census info)

In answer to your question.
The mayor is the leader in most Canadian towns and cities. Some provinces still use the title of "Reeve" for the elected leader of a village, township or a rural municipality. They hold the same type of position as that of "Mayor".

There is a "D. Wheeler" who is involved with Regional Council for Durham Region in the town of Georgina. As Georgina is not that far from Uxbridge, you may want to get in touch with this person to see if they can shed any light on your family. (I would hurry though, the election is on Monday November 13th.)

This may not have anything to do with your family, but I through it in here just in case.
