Margaret Howe of Donald, Dysart Twp., Haliburton Co., Ont.

judy6600 — 31 Aug 2001 1:50:25 GMT

I am looking for information on my Great Grandmother's sister, Mrs. MARGARET HOWE who was resident in Donald, Ontario in February, 1956. She would have been quite an age at that time as her sister MARY ANN MOLLOY/MALLOY died on that date in Toronto, age 93. Margaret's maiden name could have been BRYANT or FOSTER. I would really like the name of her husband as well as her date of death and obituary (sometime after Feb. 1956) in hopes of pinning down her marriage cert.

I can be reached by email at johnb@pdcweb.net or at Box 639, Elora, Ontario, N0B 1S0.

any family history please

peanut97 — 2 Jul 2001 6:47:01 GMT

I have recently found my biological father& family(an experience which one can sum up as a cross between the Oprah show & Jerry Springer :)& with heartfelt gratitude to Haliburton residents Nancy Stinson as well as Murray McGuire-no relation though:)). However my new family can not offer any history on the names listed which I am anxious to acquire. The Maguires named are my paternal great grandparents and I am particularly interested at this time in my grgrandfather ancestory(His mother was believed to have been from area of Curve Lake(but not certain) and of native descent. I have no info about her husband(my grgrgrandfather). John Maguire was a stationary enigineer employed at the Haliburton mill(now the lumberyard)for most of his working life while Florence(nee Sherman) was actively involved in the Baptist, Pentecostal and Salvation Army groups. It is known that the family home upon their death was given to one of these churchs and a new home built on it which is today the minister's residence. Any info about John and Florence's(she was from Kinmount) ancestory would be wonderful. As for the name Stevens(Garnet, his relationship to me is that of paternal grandfather(I am the eldest daughter of his son Bruce -his mother is Leona). It is known that he died many years back and suffice it to say that his descendants (he married Lori Davies or Davis? with whom he had a son and daughter)who are my aunt( I believe she has died) and uncle are not aware of me(nor was Garnet). I would also appreciate any info about this family and their ancestory. I can be reached via email at peanut97@home.com I am also available by phone if desired-simply email me with the necessary info and I will get in touch at my expense(I reside in Alberta). I look forward to hearing from someone in the know :) Thanks Kim

In 1931 the obituary for Anna it states that sons Alec, Levi and Robert Jr. all lived in Haliburton. I cannot find Inglesby Cemetery on the Ontario Cemetery Finding Aid. Would SKS be willing to do a headstone transcription for both of these persons (and, if I dare ask or hope, a photo of the headstone, if one exists).

Looking for ancestors in & around Trenton, ON

elizabethsaxham — 17 Oct 2005 2:36:21 GMT

Having just returned from Trenton, ON where I found an obituary for my g. uncle Frederick Ernest HIND, who died there in 1932, I am now anxious to trace the 5 daughters, 1 son and a brother who were recorded in the obituary of a local Trenton newspaper.

4 of the daughters were identified by their married names so I have no way of knowing who each daughter married.

1 daughter Mrs Carl Sweet lived & died in Trenton. The other 5 children lived in Maywood, ILL. - their names being:-Mrs Henry Nolen, Mrs Clyde Jacks, Mrs Ray Holm & Miss Annetta Hind & 1 son Allan Hind. His brother's name was Percy Hind who lived in Rochester (NY?).

Living in England I have not done any research in Canada or the USA. Can anybody give me some advise about how I can locate any of hese relatives and their descendants?

Any information and help would be very much appreciated.

Thanks. Elizabeth

Elizabeth Butterworth — 11 Nov 2005 8:09:03 GMT

Hi Eileen,
Many, many thanks for the information you have given me - certainly most of the names match the details I have, so I am a bit closer to finding them all.

Having only done research 'back in time' I am now at a loss about my next step - I suppose it would be best to post messages under the various surnames.

Once again thank you for your help,
Elizabeth

SMITH/SMYTH, John A. & Margret ??? Stanhope in 1881

smyttie66 — 25 Oct 2006 4:45:34 GMT

I am searching for the maiden name of the wife of John Abraham SMITH/SMYTH. On the 1881 census of Stanhope John appears and is married, but Margaret's name is given as JONES as well as the two childen, Hannah G. & Mary Ann.
In 1871, they are in Whitchurch living beside his father James, but Margaret is listed as SMITH.
The on IGI I found a birth for Margaret Sophia thie third daughter, who incidentally died before the 1881 census was taken, stating that the mother was Margaret FAULKNER, but this has been shot down by the FAULKNER family historian.

I received the transcripts of the tombstone for John and the girls, but Margaret was not with them, at least not on the stone.

John was my 1st cousin -3x removed. His family originated in Whitchurch and the correct spelling is SMYTH.

Can anyone shed any light ont his family for me?
