Canada / Canadian Birth Certificate 1919
« on: Sunday 24 January 10 18:32 GMT (UK) »
Hi everyoneCan anybody enlighten me re applying for a birth certificate from the UK for a Canadian ancestor (grandfather) of my daughter in law born in Windsor, Ontario. I have the short form birth cert but need the long form one to find exact details. My daughter in laws mother lives in Cape Town, South Africa so correspondence except by email is difficult.

Canada Lookup Requests Completed / Edward Hunt passenger list Feb 1918 COMPLETED
« on: Sunday 24 January 10 18:28 GMT (UK) »
Hi everyone
Having a problem confirming a sailing to Halifax, Nova Scotia from Liverpool England. I have an Edward Henry Hunt sailing on 2nd Feb 1918 on board SS Olympic he was in the CEF returning home for discharge in March 1918 having been wounded in WW1 France. He married his wife Florence Ethel Netherclift in Aug 1917 and had a son Harold Edward on 27th Dec 1917. I believe they all sailed together on this ship but have tried searching Ancestry and got confusing results, ie and Harold Edwart Hunt (which is probably the one), Florence Ethel Hunt (probably the right one as only one listed) and Edward Hunt. I just need to know if they all sailed on the same boat. They destination was Toronto and then on to Windsor.
Thanks

Hi Lodger
Many thanks for the burial info as the first two are indeed my direct line siblings. Did not know that Mary Frame married a William Brown and had a child. The age of the child seems odd as Mary died in 1900 whereas the child aged 11 died 1912 which would mean the child was born after Mary died!
Interesting to note that you have McKechnie in Argyll. I have a Samuel Mckechnie born 1836 in Argyll, Scotland a farmer who died in 1881 at South Hirst Farm, Shotts, Lanarkshire. He married a Janet Watson and later Sarah McInnes (McInnis). His parents were James Mckechnie a ships carpetner (died before 1862) and Margaret Johnston (died before 1862).

Hi AJMAC
Just checked my info again. My great grandfather John Frame born 1830 at Parkhead in Hamilton married a Margaret Glen Dunn born 1851 Cambuslang. He died 1903 at Brow Farm, Newmains, Cambusnethan, and she died 1901 at same place. This was JF second wife who had 10 chidlren as first wife just after giving birth to the last of 6 children. I know for definite his son John Frame (my grandfather) was born 1895 at the farm, all the rest seem to have been born in Hamilton or Shotts prior to that. JF born 1830 was a corn feeder previous to farming. Have not found out any more history of where they were apart from the census info and details from relatives. JF born 1895 was a dairy retailer and he met my grandmother Margaret McKechnie Forsyth born 1900 at Batton Farm (or Easter Batton Farm), Harthill (which I think is not far away from Brow Farm. Also Stanebent farm comes into it somewhere as my mother used to visit relatives on these farms. My grandmother was also a dairy retailer and she met my grandfather in the centre of Shotts when they were delivering on the milk rounds. Parkhead dairy was at 93 Low Waters Road Hamilton where my mother was born. It was designed by another of my ancestor line. If you manage to find any more info I would be very interested.
Hope this helps a bit.

Hi Toot Toot
When setting up the software for your router you use a cable to get it to work. When you access the internal web page you can disable the broadcast ID of the router which stops people snooping around for it. Also you can generate a sequence of numbers in one of the pages and assign that unique code to each computer on your network by entering it on each computer and the router. This means that only those with that number are authorised to use the router.
Cheers
