Canada Lookup Request / Re: Look-up request for William Makin Smith
« on: Thursday 31 March 11 19:33 BST (UK)  »
Just wanted to apologise for not replying sooner.

Using only my iPhone for Internet at the moment as lines are down here!

Thank you all so much for researching all this info! I spoke with my Dad today, who's just come out of hospital after an operation. He is thrilled to hear the info I've given him, and especially pleased to hear his name was given in his fathers death notice as he was sure his father knew nothing of him.

I'll be able to reply better once my Internet is back, and will be able to input all the info you guys have found into the family tree at ancestry.co.uk

You can only begin to imagine how thankful I am!

Kind regards

Sue

No idea how to thank you all for this amazing information!

My Dad is now 84, and as far as he knows has no living relatives.  Since my Mum died, it's become a bit of a mission for me to try to find someone for him.  I tried many years ago, before things took off on the internet, and got no-where. 

You have given me so much information now to work with!

Hoping I can somehow track down his sisters, and although they may well no longer be around, I guess their children will be and will be able to give him some information on his Dad etc.

Any idea what I do next regards searching in Canada?

I don't know how you do this!  Do you stay up all night?!

It's fantastic!

Thank you so much..... I really hope I can do this for my Dad!  He would so love to know if he has any relatives still living.

Jacquie, that's amazing!

You have found overnight what I've been looking for for years!

Do you know if there were Canadian Census records, or if there's any way I can trace the 2 girls, Sarah and Margaret?

Kind Regards

Sue

Hi,

I am trying to find my Paternal Grandfather.

William Maton Smith, born around 1899

Was married to Agnes Winton Forbes Kent Robertson on 29th April 1921 in Edinburgh Scotland at the age of 22

Agnes returned to Edinburgh in 1927, whilst pregnant with my Father, David Robertson Smith

There are believed to be 2 sisters, both born before 1926 - possibly May or Mary and Cecilia or Cecily or Cathy?

An address given was Alva House, Rural Route No.1, Scarborough, Toronto.

Any help much appreciated.
