Canada Lookup Request / Re: N.Augusta Ontario?
« on: Sunday 05 February 06 05:37 GMT (UK)  »
John HUMPHRIES was his name.
 Don't know about how her death was registered but her will was made in her legal name at that time- Mary Humphries.  I guess she'd be wary of anything that would have allowed him to dispute things!

The HUMPHRIES family are all in the Blue Chruch cem. and Mary's absence tipped me off that things might be a bit unusual there. Sure was right on that.

Canada Lookup Request / N.Augusta Ontario?
« on: Sunday 05 February 06 04:13 GMT (UK)  »
Is there anyone near N. Augusta Ontario who could look in the cemetery at St Peters Anglican church to see [ photograph?] the grave of Richard GRAHAM died 1861, and Mary GRAHAM died 1869 please?

I'm specially interested in what may be on the headstone as Mary Graham married again after Richard died, and that was such an unsatisfactory marriage- to my greatgrandfather!- that she was buried with husband number one and under his surname, Graham.  She also left husband #2 out of her will- leaving quite decent amounts of $ to other people.

Any help much appreciated.
 thanks

Yorkshire (West Riding) Completed Requests / Re: 1841 census lookup for Halifax, Yorks
« on: Saturday 04 February 06 03:34 GMT (UK)  »
Sandra,

Thank you so much.  That is exactly the very one we have been chasing- the presence of James in 1841 confirms what was found in 1851 by which time he was married annd living elsewhere.  Rachel was  a baker in both census.
 Pity about Sam not being there.  Maybe he was dead by then.
Thank you so much.

Yorkshire (West Riding) Lookup Requests / pre 1841 census for Halifax?
« on: Saturday 04 February 06 03:13 GMT (UK)  »
Has anyone acccess to the CD that I understand has pre 1841 Halifax area  data on it and if so, could a lookup be done for
HARGREAVES, Jonas, Samuel, Jonathan  & Thomas please?
They were in Halifax area, and maybe in Soutowram specifically but that is a guess.

Hope such a request is in order- this is my first posting.
Thanks,
 Charlotte
