Hi Elizabeth,

There is lots of information for you to collate and verify, Canada can be very restrictive because of privacy laws, especially as we try to come forward. A link to what is available for Newfoundland and Labrador

Hello Fluffy1234. My name is Gary Roberts, living near Montreal, Quebec. My father is Ward A. Roberts, brother of Adelbert (Delbert) Roberts. My dad received a visit to Montreal from Delbert back in 1986 and they traveled up to their hometown St. Paul's River, Bonne Espérance Québec. I remember my Uncle Delbert quite fondly. My dad and Delbert were always together in their youth. Dad, Ward, is presently 99 years old and still going about.  The whole family, Roberts, from St.Paul's River and here in Montreal often wondered about Uncle Delbert's children and how they are getting along. You can contact me through this site...I just registered after viewing your search for your husband links with his family.... it's pretty interesting and wonderful...

[FLUFFY1234]

Hi Gary,
What a great surprise to have finally (for us) to have made contact with a direct relative.
So my name is Elizabeth and I have been researching my husbands Canadian family for some years now.
My husband Norman known as Richard is the youngest of Adelbert’s sons.
Adelbert was know as Bob

John is the eldest born in 1948 and married with 3 daughters and 3 grandchildren. John and his wife live in England.
Irving  born 1949 married with 1 son and 2 stepchildren a numerous grandchildren. Irving known as Bob lives in Spain along with his wife.
And finally Richard born 1953 we have 1 son and 2 grandchildren.

Although I have been working on the family tree we don’t really know much about Adelbert’s siblings.
I have Donald 1911-1993 married Lillian Forder both died in California USA.
Ena 1913
Harold 1916
Then your dad Arnott Ward 1920.
 I was unable to find any marriages for the above (including your dad).
So if you are able to fill me in on any family details we would be very great full.

Mathew Thomas and Lily Maud were their parents

My email address is ^(*) it may be better to chat on there as there are many many questions I have to ask, regarding Bob (Adelbert).
I hope to hear from you soon
Kind regards
Elizabeth and Richard.
