Could anybody suggest a spelling of the French-Canadian name currently pronounced "Jambo"? The two earliest spellings I have seen in the mid 1800s are Jeanbarre (church marriage record) and JohmBore (census).
My ancestor Mary Ann Jambo (have also seen Jambeau) married David Rushlow in 1873 in Trenton, but I cannot pinpoint where Mary Ann came from in Canada.

trischhall — 1 Jul 2008 3:07:45 GMT

Looking for any descendants of these two brothers, or information about them. Are the 1861 and 1871 Canadian census online anywhere?

John, 33, shoemaker
Susan, 34
Amelia, 10
John, 8
George J, 7, went by Joseph and Joe
Sarah E, 6
Stanley, 3
Margaret, 2

John Scott and Susan Chartrand married at Coteau-du-Lac, St Ignace parish, moved to Whitby where several children were born. Son Joe Scott moved to Simcoe area and married Lucinda Davis. He later moved to Michigan. We have information on this line we will share.

The children of Charles and Mary seem to have mostly remained in the Whitby area. Online Canadian records give Charles Scott, d. March 1885; Jerome Scott d. Jan 1917 and burial in Union Cemetery, with parents given as Charles Scott and Mary, and wife as Elizabeth Bates; Mary Ellen Scott age 30, parents Charles and Mary, married Edward Frost, age 26, in 1873 at Whitby; Frances Ann Scott, d/o Charles and Mary Scott, m. William Marshall at Whitby in 1873.

Does any of this sounds familiar? Would also consider research for hire on this family.

arobison1 — 9 May 2002 9:49:04 GMT

Hello,

I was wondering if you could help me with my Robison ancestors.

My great-grandfather was Albert Robison. He was born around 1873. He was married to Emma Chelles. I do not know the year they were married.

My grandfather was Alexander Angus Roy Robison. He was born June 3, 1906, in Cobourg Ontario. He had sisters and brothers, but I do not know their names. He was married to Bessie Garrow. They had 5 children, all of them were born in Owen Sound, Ontario.

Any information would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Amy Robison

Looking for the family of Nerta Bennett wife of George Miller b. 1887 daughter of Charles Otis Bennett. Nerta died
in 1970, and is buried in the Claremont Union Cemetery. She lived for a brief time in Grand Rapids, Michigan (c1911-1915)and was a friend of my late grandmother Elizabeth (VanDam) Pfarrer.

Charles Otis Bennett had three daughters one married a Frank A. Spence, one married a Clifford E. Soden and Nerta married George Miller. all are buried in Claremont Union Cemetery. Thank you, Diane

Children of Artemas Wesley HILTS & Elma Beatrice HENDERSON

rozamod — 2 Sep 2007 6:09:09 GMT

Artemas Wesley Hilts (1885-1934) was married Elma Beatrice Henderson (1890-1982) in 1911. I have been able to locate two of their sons, twin boys, John and William, both born in 1912, John died in 1912 and William died in 1916 both in the Pickering Twp.

According to Artemas's obituary, he died in 1934 in Oshawa and when he died it says he is survived by his widow, one daughter and one son, both at home. But there is no mention of the names of these two children.

It is the two surviving children in 1934 that I am interested in. Would anyone know the names of the son and daughter who survived Artemas when he died?

Pringle & Co. Whitby Twp. Whitby Ontarion

perancilio1 — 25 Jan 2005 9:17:36 GMT

I am looking for any information on Pringle & Co. such as who was the owner of the company. According to the 1880 Beldon's Atlats they were Merchant Tailors of Scottish descent. I have a brickwall ancestor who is also a Scottish Pringle and I am hoping to make a connection. My ancestor is William E. Pringle born March 2, 1833. According to all of the census records he reports his place of birth as Scotland. I have no record of him until July 1863 when he married Sarah Jane Williamson in Port Huron Michigan USA. Sarah Jane's family were farmers in Bosanquet Twp., Lambton County. By 1871 the couple and their first four childrent were living in Sarnia Lambton County where William was a tailor with his own business. That is why I am hoping there might be some connection. I would appreciate any leads or information. Thank you in advance for any assistance.

dogslife16 — 23 May 2007 5:10:45 GMT

I cannot find any information on my mother. She was injured in 1966 and I can only remember bits and pieces of her childhood stories. Her Father's name was supposed to be Michael. She had a sister Mary (who married a man Harry Burley and resided with their son ((Robert) and daughter in Niagra Falls, Canada), a brother John and brother Peter. She mentioned living in Sudbury Ontario. I have her social security card and Immigration Green Card w/registration number. She used to say she was Austrian and Ukranian, but was a citizen of Canada until an amnesty in the US granted her "legal" status. I have searched Canadian crossings, Mexican crossings (my father was Mexican and I can easily find his info), Austrian ship logs, census for both US and Canada. Her parents supposedly died when she was very young and was taken by a neighbor. She mentions the Prospect Hotel in Sudbury, but it appears to no longer exists.

Any assistance you can give in pointing me to the right direction would be greatly appreciated.

William Ivory, Born 4/05/1905, Coolatrindle, Nr Ballygarrett, Co Wexford, Ireland. Went to Canada

majbke — 1 Apr 2007 5:16:19 GMT

I'm searching for relatives of my great uncle, William Ivory, from Coolatrindle, Ballygarrett, Co Wexford, Ireland. I believe he went to Canada, married a French lady and has two sons who still live in Canada (don't know which part but Toronto and Ontario have been mentioned.) I've been told that one of them went back to Ireland a few years ago to discover his roots, but I don't think there's anything left, apart from an uncle in Tipperary.

My grandmother, Mary Ivory, was William's sister. There were two other siblings, Thomas and Patrick Ivory, but I don't know what became of them. My granny Ivory married Patrick Burke from Ballinavounia in 1923 and died in 1927 aged 25. My dad Patrick Burke and his siblings Tom and Cath were brought up by his Ivory grandparents (William and Mary nee Byrne)near Ballygarrett.

I would love to hear from anyone who may know what became of my great uncle William's family or his decendants.
