Bernard Moriez lookup request

[J.J.]

Phooey, wanted to save you some time and looked for an email address...
Found this fellow, but he doesn't have anything online...
Interesting, though as he makes bows for archery, and his product seems to be very popular...

Welcome to rootschat..It would be nice if we could go back into Nova Scotia and find this family. 

I know I looked through all the censuses back then, but will put what I found today ...although it means nothing right now, so will cross it through unless it turns out to be something valid..Still can't find a trace of Bernard, was he born another name?
( deleted as found the birth reg for Bernard, next posting)

[J.J.]

Oh I see his birth is now listed that is great...as Morriez, Bernard Joseph b. 1889 Thorburn, Pictou  ...did you find the father Charles Joseph Morriez born Belgium and a miner on census, then? Mother listed as Marie Bernardine Morriez...  This was a late registration, 1926, Charles died by then,  plus a sister to Marie...Marie Theresa Gerard gave the information so another clue

Aunt Theresa Marie Gerard death also in B.C. stated her last name was Daye ( Baptist Daye and Finella Vandermissen )
She was also born in Belgium so that might be why no marriage for Charles and ?  https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/FL5H-J3K

More in B.C. Adele Daye born Begium married Leopold Lefas in 1894 https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/JDZK-R4L
John Baptiste Daye & Philomene Vandermissens
also a death & marriage for Oscar Joseph Daye, same parents  https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/FLGG-H5K
https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/JDZL-B7X

The Day family immigrated circa 1887 Fillomene,  & Morris Day a nephew in house of another Marie married to a Bulange/s in 1911

 ( Morris's father was Prosper Daye https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/JDZ8-2Z1)
Oscar says imm 1890 http://www.automatedgenealogy.com/census11/SplitView.jsp?id=60313
Adele says 1890 http://www.automatedgenealogy.com/census11/SplitView.jsp?id=60309
a couple more Daye that may belong as info may be miss-trancribed
https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/JDZ2-4D7  &  https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/JDZ2-7QN
see now Ladysmith was where Adele lived as well...
I can find information in B.C. but not in Nova Scotia

[J.J.]

So here is Bernard 1901, with mother as Daye...Marie says she's a widow...two  more daughters born B.C.
http://www.automatedgenealogy.com/census/ViewFrame.jsp?id=60927&highlight=18

ackkk...so has she just gone back to her maiden name then? I',m so confused!!!  But perhaps the family was in transit after his birth so it was never registered? also 1891 I just don't see them...
But was that Mary getting married for a second time in reply above? to Frank Ottan

[J.J.]

yes it was her marriage just found them in Alberta 1906  as Hatten/Hotten and children Danyc
Frank  Head  age 31 born Belgium
 Mary Wife  age 42 born Belgium
Bernard    step son age 18 born N.S.
Adel    step daughter  born age 16 born N.S.
Prosper    stepson  12 Alberta  http://people.ucalgary.ca/~dsucha/miners.html
Alex stepson  10 Alberta
August  stepson 8 Alberta

ahh, so Charles may have died in Alberta? But where are Mary & Alice born B.C.  Now more confusing...
~~~~~~~~
Back to calling herself Daye as a widow in 1911 http://www.automatedgenealogy.com/census11/SplitView.jsp?id=11149

Seems August belonged to Prosper Day & Marie Dubouis...
https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/JDDW-77X
and Alex https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/JDD7-LMD

Was this an aunt looking after Bernard, then? I don't think both couples had a Bernard born Nova Scotia as I can even find one...

[J.J.]

and a wrench to throw into the works, is a Della Cameron child of Prosper  Daye, Mary Dubois born in Nova Scotia
https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/F3Q7-MB4 so Adele from the census...

added  ww1 signup for  Bernard Day born Nova Scotia  http://data2.archives.ca/cef/gpc002/283559a.gif

So there were 2 of them? still where is one when we find the other?  Can anyone else clear this up?

Sorry going back to marriage information he was Moriez in 1911....so that is a cousin born similar dates

So Need to find Mary with Alice & Mary to see if they belong to Mary Morriez or the other aunt also Mary/Marie Theresa daye Gerard??? I couldn't find anything for Gerard, though...
~~~~~~~~~`
Here are some of Barnard Gerard and Theresa's children ...one also born around the same time in Nova Scotia

Here is Marie Boulanger swearing to the late registration for Joseph Benjamin Gerard
 https://novascotiagenealogy.com/ItemView.aspx?ImageFile=1904-68400433&Event=birth&ID=156487

so makes it confusing, three sisters all Marie just as with Quebec searches...See now that Mary is daughter Boulanger, and Alice as regard must have been an error on census...So the elusive Bernard Morriez remains elusive...

Saw Arthur was born in U.S. so here they are in 1910 and Bernard is with them with Mary & Alice Regard and Morris day  says he is a stepson.....ack...
https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/MGJJ-FGC But this is the correct mother....I can only find one Amand Regard, born Belgium, but was quite a young fellow ....... She is quite inventive with her birth age  Wonder if she married all these men, and did she use her maiden name?

Mary Thresa Regard Apr. 5 1894 Northfield, British Columbia
https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/JDZY-4VC
Alice Regard  Jun 6 1898  Northfield, British Columbia, Canada
https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/JDZL-9RH
Parents Amond/Amand Regard  & Mary Bernadine Daye

Death of brother Arthur Philip Boulanger
