"Our Roots" "Nos Racines" LINK

This is a fascinating website of digitized books that are readable and searchable.  Many contain photos and maps.

There are local histories, biographies, and many interviews with people who came to Canada to make new
lives for their families.

Welcome, Peter.

That is an amazing website, isn't it?

In what part of Canada did you find them, or which book?

A local history called, Between the Fences: Usborn Township 1842-1992. The supplementary editon in 1995 contained the family photo. I am trying an inter-library loan to get a copy of the 1992 editon. I am hoping it will have a write up on my mothers side of the family.

The Google Books web site is interesting as well. I have them both marked as favourites.
