Pinehill Cem Lambton Co ONT. lookup please
« on: Monday 03 April 06 10:48 BST (UK) »
 Is there someone who can lookup the transcription for
George A. P. HUMPHRIES in Pinehill Cemetery, Lambton County, Bosanquet Twp, Ontario    Ref. LB-987-2 ?

This reference is on OCFA site and may be for the George Albert Percy Humphries for whom I have been searching for years.
If someone has the book of transcriptions  for Pinehill Cem. and could help me in this I'd be most grateful.
Thank you,
Charlotte

Karen,
Thank you for that info.  Is it from the Pinehill Cem records?
If not, could you please tell me the source of the info?  That might give me some other leads. 

What you sent  mystifies me a bit- the age is correct but the occupation doesn't fit..  Also the OCFA database had the name as George A.P. HUMPHRIES which fits my man precisely. 

Another question if I may, do you hasve on your resources a John Charles Wesley HUMPHRIES b 1845 and who I think died after 1901? He is the father of the George Albert Percy.

Thanks again for your help.
Charlotte

Hi Charlotte,

It's from the Ontario Death Registrations.

You could email the Lambton County site who has the OCA information and see what it says

http://www.sarnia.com/groups/ogs/lambton_page.html

There seem to be a few Humphries buried in that cemetery.

Thanks for the source info.  It is indeed my George  Albert Percy Humphries.
You say there are quite a few Humphries in Pinehill Cem .  Is there by chance his father, John Charles Wesley Humphries?

Sarnia is quite a distance from Ottawa where I had them placed, by George's  baptism record in 1868 so I am very grateful to you for locating George in Sarnia.    His Humphries grandparents generation are buried in the Blue Church Cem. nr Brockville- I have them all taped!
Thanks again for all your help,
charlotte
