Where is Dodgeville, Saskatchewan?

4867175 — 28 May 2008 12:11:20 GMT

Could someone please let me know where Dodgeville, Saskatchewan is located and also which larger town/city is it near? I am trying to track down the burial location of my great great grandmother who may have been living in Dodgeville when she died circa 1912. If anyone reading this is familiar with cemeteries in the area of Dodgeville, if you could please give me a suggestion or two of the names of cemeteries to try, I'd really appreciate it!

Dewdrop, Saskatchewan in 1912: What county/township?

Encanto59 — 17 Sep 2008 12:13:14 GMT

Today I was extracting information from a US Civil War Pension file, andI found the soldier/veteran (Oscar M. Morse) in a place called Dewdrop, Saskatchewan in 1912. In what county is/was Dewdrop located? I found him in the Homestead Search Index where he was in SE Part of Section 9, Twp. 10, Range 1, W3 Meridian. He may have also been in SW section 10, Twp. 10, Range 1, Meridian W3. Is there a good county/twp. map online? I may have finally found his middle name, if this is the same person with adjoining homestead parcels(?) in this township/county,.

Looking to make TWIGGER family connections in the Assiniboia area

couchresearch — 16 Aug 2008 7:12:18 GMT

Hi there,

Am looking to make new family connections with Twigger relations in the Roche Percee, Bienfait, Coalfields, Estevan, Assiniboia, Saskatchewan, Canada area.

John Twigger Sr., my grgrgrandfather, b. 1840 Foleshill, Warwickshire, England had married Jane Mary Cashmore b. 1842, Foleshill, Warwickshire, England and began a family.

In 1870, the Twigger family immigrated from England to Findley Township, Mercer County, Pennsylvania, USA, where more children were born, before the Twigger family, in 1880, immigrated to Alice and Fraser Township, Renfrew North County, Ontario, Canada.

The Twigger family grew even larger with the addition of several children, when suddenly, at the age of 48 years, Jane Mary (Cashmore) Twigger passed away in 1890.

John Twigger Sr., suddenly a widower at age 51, had left to Lethbridge, Alberta, then further to Bienfait, Saskatchewan were he married his second wife, Bella, 42 years of age and had two children named John Jr.and Charles.

Around this period of time, the Twigger family lived in Roche Percee, Bienfait, Coalfields, Estevan, Assiniboia.

I believe John Twigger Sr. and his second wife, Bella, likely died in the area and were likely buried in the Bienfait area between 1911-25(?).

John Jr. Twigger b. June 9, 1896, d. January 10, 1973 is buried at Bienfait Civic Cemetery.

Charles Twigger, b. April 9, 1901 d. unknown.

Soldier who died in ww1 and had baby with Kentish woman 1917

beverleyjaynestewart — 16 Apr 2008 2:37:50 GMT

My Grandfather died in the Somme, possibly in the advance against Courcelette and Regina Trench. He met my Grandmother in Shorncliffe in Kent, while training there. she found out she was pregnant just before he left for the front and he promised to marry her when he returned. whilst away he wrote to his family and told them of the baby and his intention to marry, but never returned. After the war his family contacted my Grandmother and asked her to go to Canada to live but she wouldn't leave her extended family. She refused to tell my mother the name of her father and swore all her sisters to secrecy. We feel she was scared of losing my mother to her Canadian family. Sadly this secret was kept until everyone who could have told us had died. My only hope is to find a family in Canada who has a similar story, of a relative who had a child in England but died in battle. My Mother was born 15th May 1917 and my Grandmothers name was Annie Relf.

They had 9 children, Lillian, George, Kenneth, Clarence, Laura, Elizabeth, Walter, Robert, Leroy. The younges three were born in Saskatchewan.

The WW1 Attestation Papers for George Henry & Kenneth Grant Knight gave their address as Dunblane P.O. Sask.

Where would I look for Burials and Wills?

Looking for information on EMMA ROBERTS b. London, England, in 1887 and her sister, ALICE ROBERTS b. 1889 London, England. They were sent to Canada from a London orphanage sometime around late 1890's.

ALICE married JAMES G. R. YOUNG in Feb 14 1911 @ Drummond Court, Lanark County, Ontario. He was a farmer and his parents were ADAM & MARGARET YOUNG of Drummond County.

I think James YOUNG had some connection with the town of Osler, Saskatchewan.

EMMA was one of the witnesses at the wedding and her residence is shown as Carleton Place. The other witness was John Walbeh or Walker of Drummond.

Can anybody advise please.

Family of Stepon Zoakipny

stinger11 — 27 Feb 2007 3:43:32 GMT

I am looking into my grandmothers family background. Her maiden name was Catherine Zaokipnyj. She was one of three children who came from Zalucze, Ukraine. I have found a few references for the Zoakipny name where they have come to Canada from villages close to Zalucze. Althought the surnames are slightly different in spelling, they are close enough to possibly be related. There was a Stepon Zoakipny who died on May 7th, 1952 in Moose Jaw. He was survived by his widow, a daughter, and 3 sons. I would like to make contact with members of his family to discuss the possibility of there being a distant family connection.

Margery was married and other children from that marriage. So meet this oil worker and had an affair. My husband was taken away from the Thompson home 7 days after he was born because of the fact stated under oth that her lawful husband is not the father of this infant, and the mother is therefore unwilling to car for the child.

biolung — 13 Jan 2007 5:25:25 GMT

Hi Irene
Are you still willing to do look-ups? If so I would really appreciate the following. I am looking for information as to when Capt. Charles Smith died. He was born Dec 3, 1839 in Toronto and lived in the Caledon area of Peel County until sometime in the late 1800's-probably after 1890 when he and some of his family moved west. He was in the militia and was awarded a medal for fighting the Fenians which was sent to him in 1901 in Moose Jaw. He had a number of children, some of whom are buried in the Moose Jaw Cemetery but he doesn't appear in the list of burials on-line. He died sometime after 1926 as he is mentionned as living in Moose Jaw in a newspaper article on his older sister that year. His wife was Mary Ann Erskinewho apparently died before 1901. Have been unable to find where he is buried or when he died. Any information would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Is there a local central burial authority record office or are there only privately owned cemeteries that keep their own records. I would appreciate any suggestions.
