Confirming name and burial in Jasper Cemetary.

pstevenson118 — 19 Jun 2008 6:48:25 GMT

Last August I visited Jasper and spent time in the Museum and Cemetery. My mother (Patricia Stevenson) told me growing up in Jasper had a baby brother who died very young and was buried in the Jasper Cemetery. In the directory at the entrance to the cemetery was a listing of a Robert Stevenson. There3 was no headstone at the burial site. We would like to purchase and install one sometime in the near future. It would be helpful to get the full name out of the directory as I seem to have misplaced the middle name. Thank you for your time Pat

I'm trying to locate someone who may have known or is related to Ole Pearson and his two children, Stella May and James Carl. I know they lived in Jasper around 1924. Ole was American and I believe he married an English lady during WW1. They had a daughter Stella born in England (1918) and then a son, James born in Edmonton (1923).

CEMETERY WITHIN JASPER NATIONAL PARK, JASPER, ALBERTA, CANADA

Norma Jean MacDonald — 27 Aug 2004 10:47:54 GMT

I am starting the search for a relative of my family from PRINCE EDWARD ISLAND, FRANK MACDONALD, who was buried in a cemetery in JASPER NATIONAL PARK, back in the 1950's or thereabouts. The living family has a picture of the grave but have never visited the gravesite itself.

I would like to find the name of the actual cemetery so I could order a transcript of same, or if someone might have some info on the listings in this area.

There is reportedly also a newspaper story that FRANK went with or married a minister's daughter from Jasper so maybe someone might have come across this as well.

Any and all help much appreciated, and maybe someone needs info from PEI which I can reciprocate with.

I am looking for any information I can find about the cemetary at Pocahontas, Alberta. A relative was buried there around 1917 and, although everyone agrees that information exists about the cemetary, I cannot find anyone that has that information.

The problem comes from the fact that at the time the town was in a municipality, now it is part of Jasper Park and each camp (municipal and Parks Department) has been telling me that the other has the information.

I am looking for the legal description of the gravesite of Dora JAMES

Mt. Shuey & Shuey Pass

John Shuey — 15 Dec 1998 12:00:00 GMT

The Shuey Family in the United States originated with the immigration of Daniel Schuy and his family to Philadelphia in 1732, Schuy/Shuey being derived from Juy, a Huguenot family that fled France in the 1690s.

I have recently heard of a Mt. Shuey and a Shuey Pass in the Jasper area. Can anyone tell me their history, or the origin of their names?

Thank you.

Dora Doyle and her family immigrated to Canada in 1924 from Ireland. Her father tried farming in the Edmonton area but later moved to Jasper where he and Dora's brother Jim were employed by the Jasper Park Lodge Golf Course. Dora and her mother stayed in Edmonton where she received her schooling. Dora later moved to Peace River where she became the first school teacher in the district, teaching grades 1 to 8. In the late 1930s Dora moved back to Jasper and was a teacher at Jasper Elementary school until her retirement in 1969.
