on the Canada Birth Records, there is a record for my great, great uncle: Leo John McGrady.

I am very excited with this find, I now know his mother's (my great great grandmother's) maiden name.

The record lists the place of marriage for Leo's parents as somewhere in England. This is the first time I have traced ancestry in the British isles recent enough to find information in census records. It looks something like Whiteleams. It states the place of marriage is also located in the county of York, possibly meaning Yorkshire?

Please visit http://img140.imageshack.us/img140/1429/albertjp3.jpg to see the picture of the place name in this document.

When you are there, simply jump onto one of the close up page views and go to page 553. Can you identify where Leo's parents had their wedding?

I have found the census records out of Canada much more useful than the American ones I am accustomed to. The censuses have exact birth dates, religion, and more.

Thank you
