How do I trace my family in Canada
« on: Monday 08 March 21 18:37 GMT (UK) »
Greetings Nice People - I hope you are all keeping safe

     I am trying to trace family in Canada that went out around 1903 and stayed. I know my
     great Uncle Edward Davies married out there and raised a family but I can't find records
      in the same way I can using  Free BMD in the UK - Is there any source like BMD in Canada?
         He married a lady named Tydvill Jane Jenkins in  Simcoe, Ontario on the 7th of May 1906.
        I know of some children and grandchildren but its all a bit vague.
     Edward is my first effort at trying to find someone outside of Wales       

                                   Thanks for any help - take care - Keith       

 P.S. Sorry for my mistake regarding Janet Ferguson. Hopefully I have corrected myself
       Thank you for the two other bits of advice.
Davies, Hollis, Rogers, Looker, Elias,
