Thank you

Canada Lookup Request / James Newton Henning
« on: Thursday 13 October 16 01:52 BST (UK)  »
Hello,

Looking for information on Dr J N H born 1930's Cumberland, BC. Wife's name was Diane, sister Jean Gibson "Helen" Henning. J was a pathologist in Barrie, Mississauga & Orillia. I can't seem to find an obituary or an other information besides a voters list for 1974 and an address from 2001. Any help would be much appreciated.

I think the fellow that died in Colorado is actually Harold John Robertson. I think I will concentrate my efforts in Cumberland, BC, Canada.

Thank you

Hello,

I could use some help in verifying the death of John Robertson.

John Robertson was born 25 Jun 1859 in Old Monkland, Lanark, Scotland. He lived in Cumberland, BC Canada during the late 1800's working as a miner. I was told that he died on 19 Feb 1906 in Maitland, Huerfano, Colorado, USA. I cannot seem to find any documents to back up this fact.

Thank you very much.

Canada / Re: Laverne Leonard b.1917 Ontario

Claire & RunKitty, your titles of rootschat "Aristocrats" are well deserved. :)  I can not thank you enough for the help you have provided. You have just made a certain somebody (the fellow who's family I have been researching) very happy. I have been conducting my own family studies for a number of years and the experts on rootschat  have helped me climb over that "brick wall" many times. The pieces of the Laverne Leonard mystery have just fallen into place.

Thank you again.  ;D

Canada / Laverne Leonard b.1917 Ontario
« on: Friday 24 October 14 01:35 BST (UK)  »
Hello,

I could kindly use some help with information regarding Laverne Leonard b.1917 Ontario. The 1921 census records
show Laverne (spelt Laburne) living with his mother Florence Ross Leonard (nee Hoskin) b.1895 Ontario, and his younger sister
Doris Leonard b.1919 Ontario.
 The head of household were the parents of Florence, William H & Susannah Hoskin. I believe Laverne was a WWII veteran,
and was married three times, one in British Columbia to Dorothy Murdoch (deceased) around 1954 & twice in Ontario. I cannot seem to find
 a marriage record for Laverne's mother Florence. The family are from Perth, Ontario. I did find some voters records for a Laverne Leonard
 living in Timmons, Ontario 1957,a Mrs Laverne Leonard & a James Leonard living in Fort William 1963 & again in 1974 James (firefighter)
& Mrs Laverne Leonard (secretary).
 William H Hoskin died on June 26 1928 in Mitchell,Perth County,Ontario & Susannah Hoskin died on Dec 13 1932 also in Mitchell. It
would be nice to know where & when Laverne passed away and any children would be a bonus.

Thank you very much.

Hello JDC,

Thank you for your kind reply. I really appreciate the information you have provided to me.
 I will take your advice and contact the archive departments that you have recommended to me.
This search was a bit harder than I though it would be, but I will pursue this further.

Regards,

Canada / Yvan "John" Lesenko - Ukraine to Canada
« on: Sunday 17 August 14 20:21 BST (UK)  »
Hello,

I could really use some assistance tracking down any immigration and travel records for
Yvan "John" Lesenko. He was born in the Ukraine (Russia) 1918 and emigrated to Newfoundland Canada app.1951.
 He is listed on the Canadian voters list living in Longueuil, Québec in 1963 as "Yvan Leasenko" and again in 1965 as   "Yvan Lessenko". Lots of spelling variation happening here.
 I will continue searching.

Thank you for your time.

Dublin / Re: Catherine Mckeane/Mckean/McKane born in Dublin 1862

Hello Tara,


 As you are aware of the surname spelling variance regarding Mary Kilford/Guilfoyle, I came across
a copy of Griffiths Valuation for Maryborough. I was surprised at the number of Guilfoyle inhabitants  during this time period 1847-1864. Do you think there is a chance that Mary is related? My search of Kilford's came up empty?

Thank you

p.s
I am having a pint of Kilkenny watching a rerun of Brendan O'Carroll on the the Graham Norton Show. I know this has nothing to do with ancestry but I had to throw that in. :)
