Find Ancestors

my point regarding Emile Chinal is that if William in Kansas was a brother then his grandson is listed in the telephone directory and it would be an easy matter to contact him and enquire about the family :-)

edit I have also now given Beverley contact information for the other grandchild and for another descendant of William in a different state

hello Beverley is this a brother from the record at FIBIS ?

just wondering in case a son might have gone by that surname

I would just say it is no more likely that he would have gone to Canada than to the US, it was very unusual for there to be French immigration to Quebec after the Conquest ( 1769 ), and in any event they seem to have been anglicised

actually there are several children ... from familysearch.org

Thanks a lot, Lorraine.
I have William as a possible brother for Emile, though their parents were born out East, not in England: father Eugene in India and mother Catherine in Burma.
I'm very grateful to you for taking he trouble to look this up for me.

hi Lorraine, on page 11 Steven asked about getting full WWI records from Canada

you're familiar with the CEF webpage where attestation papers may be viewed

http://www.collectionscanada.gc.ca/databases/cef/001042-100.01-e.php

clicking Search Help on the left of that page goes to

http://www.collectionscanada.gc.ca/databases/cef/001042-130-e.html?PHPSESSID=shj33glsi84knefm6s85h9nbu0

and there is a link to 'How to order a copy of a complete service file'

since Steven won't likely see this now perhaps you would let him know ?

Hello Lorraine,
I am hoping to find some information about the arrival and whereabouts of my uncle who emigrated to Canada. His name was Frank (Francis) Heselton (many variations of spelling the surname). Uncle Frank was known for his lack of interest in writing and spelling.
He was born in 1886 at Ingleton, Yorkshire, U.K. I do not know when he emigrated to Canada, except that it was in the early nineteen hundreds. I do know that he eventually became a share-farmer at Medicine Hat, Alberta and that his share partner wrote to the family in U.K. in 1950 to tell them that he had died. I will be very grateful for any information you may be able to find for me. Thank you.
Kathleen

Dear Lorraine
I wonder if you would kindly look for Emile Gaston Burridge CHINAL
arriving in Canada some time after 1920.
He was born in India in 1879, son of Eugene Adolph Chinal (of French origin) and Catherine Burridge. I know he was in Agra in 1920 because he married my great grandmother then. After that he totally disappeared. My g-grandma returned to England some time around 1930 and never mentioned him! Presumably the marriage was a disaster.
I've heard that one of his brothers emigrated to the US or Canada, I think given their French origin, Canada is more likely, and possibly he went with him.
Unfortunately his surname can be found spelt in several different ways including Chanel, Chinell and Chanell.
I have no idea if he would have sailed to England and then on to Canada or gone via a different route.
It's a difficult one but your help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Beverley

Hi Lorraine Please could you help. My grandmother left
England in about 1922 .to go to Canada to look for a man
to marry.She married a Harry Marquis Lee and lived and
stayed in Toronto. Her name was Kathleen Lilian Hicks.
Could you find out if Harry fought in the WW2 in England.
Perhaps passenger lists.Could this be done?
Regards Chico.

Hi Lorraine

I am looking for some help in finding info on one of my family members who moved to the USA, this is what I know:

George William Milnes born 1871 ASHTON-UNDER-LYNE Lancashire England

Died age 40 (08/03/1911) in New Bedford, USA.

The death info is on a grave in our family plot, so I would like to know if this can be confirmed?

Any other info that is available would be great.

Many Thanks in advance

Jane

I know quite unusual I thought to add that to his passenger list, not sure if its 54years ago or aged 54.

maybe you search online for newspapers articles where he was living to see if there are any references to an accident
