Find Ancestors

oh my goodness..Thank you mgv,..you have gone to a lot of trouble. I apologise for not replying sooner, for some reason gr is not notifying me when someone responds to my watched posts and as I had it marked as answered I didn't think to look at it again.. I have already obtained quite a lot of the info you have given me, as in census etc..but I hadn't looked for land grants or anything like that but I will go through the links you have given.. Thank you again, very much appreciated..

Each Township Range combination identifies a 6m x 6m township block.
You can check http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dominion_Land_Survey to see how the 36 sections are numbered within a township block.

Once you know this, and the values for Calder & Macnutt, you can look these villages up at http://maps.google.com/ then just count of the sections or quarter sections to navigate to the land they got patent on, and see what's there today.

Look up William Kelso at:
http://www.collectionscanada.gc.ca/databases/western-land-grants/001007-100.01-e.php
He got title (letters patent) to 2 quarter sections, but the later one was cancelled (maybe he still had the one on S16SW).
Jakob Daum also got letters patent on S24NW T23 R32 on 22/2/1899.

Yes Margee, I found that the other day..it was very nicely worded.

There's a lovely long obituary here for Florence:

I have use ancestry uk as well, but its not the world wide subscription...I might try and go for the whole thing when it comes up for renewal.

Thanks again for your help Dee :-)

I use Ancestry.co.uk. I have full membership and found it on there. If you don't subscribe you could take out a 14 day free trial. They want your card details but if you cancel before the 14 days are up it will cost you nothing.

Yes Margee he was born in Manitoba and Theresa Daum was his mother.. I've been giving the vitalstats website quite a workout for the past few days, I've found quite a bit of information there for my friend..
I've also looked at the 1911 canadian census, however neither Charles or his parents are on there.

Thank you Margee. That is definately them...My friend is going to be sooooo excited when she learns all this...

BatMansDaughter. I;m pretty sure the family with Permilla as wife is not connected to my friends family. We know Charles Kelso married a Florence Henry, they married in Montana in 1828. Charles Kelso was a butcher or meat cutter.

Thank you for your help.
