Sorry but no Larry; 

Agnes was my first cousin, twice removed, so I've not yet researched her paternal line.  Her father (Ernest William Sturgeon) was born in Darlington, Co.Durham, married in Winnipeg and died in Vancouver......that's all the info I have.

No I don't have it, thank you. I was looking at this line just a few hours ago trying to write an item for my local family history society journal; based on her mother.....'Flighty Flo'.

Thanks again.  :-*
