Montraul?? completed with Thanks
« on: Monday 23 March 09 17:17 GMT (UK) »
Hi,
     Has anyone heard or know of a village in Ontario called Montraul?

 I am looking into my cousins line for her and she is adamant that her grandfather was from there and not Montreal.   I am out of ideas as far  as searching goes as all I get back is montreal.

Hmm, I havn't  ???  Does your cousin know what part of Ontario this village was located in?

There is  Montreal Rive which is north of Sault Ste. Marie Ontario

There's quite a few "M" towns missing from that list.

There appears to be a Montreuil Lake, Ontario, Canada.

Could that be it?

Was your cousin's grandfather born before 1909? If so if you give us his name there might be a birth registration listed which will help identify the location.
