Hello Cosmac,
Wee update: I have written to Manitoba Genealogical Society today. I got a reply from them a few hours later.
The gentleman there found the same record as you did from the indexes. He said it will take up to 3 months to process an order!
That probably is why the fee is so cheap?
He would not assist me any further unless I take up on a genealogical research for CAD$75 on the family. I explained to him that the family had left Manitoba to be with their son/brother in SASK after the father passed on.
I asked if I could look up on their cemeteries transcription. They have transcriptions on most cemeteries including Sanford. Or to purchase it, 26 pages long, for about CAD$7.50. I am awaiting for them to reply.
I did tell them that it is a bit rude to push $75 fee on me without asking few questions. It is nice if all the family is still in Manitoba but not in my case.
I am waiting for other society to contact me.
Hopefully, we will get a confirmation somehow. I think it is very likely George died in Sanford despite his incorrect age on that record. The gentleman there said the registration will tell us an exact date of his death despite it being indexed for 1906. In other words, it is not always the case it is in the same year.
Let's hope but 3 months' wait. I feel bad for both of you and me. I should have faxed if I had known that it will be 3 months' wait.
Kind regards,
Tees
PS I am waiting for a Thompson descendant to e-mail me the book where she got her information about her great-grandmother. Will share any information with you as a thank-you for all the help given me.
