Yes, I did find him and his family and at this point, it looks as though Augustinian VAN SNICK that married Florian GANY in Belgium is his sister.

I am doing some research for a descendant that I met a month ago that lives in Ontario and just wanted to try every avenue!

Thanks for this - I might not have already had it :o)

Had you noticed that there were also these other VAN SNICKS in the same area, born around the same time period in Belgium ... in Joggins area?

1] Joseph VAN SNICK abt 1878 marr Marie [nee ROUSSEAU] widow REANT

2] John Baptist VAN SNICK born Aug 10 1881 marr Rosalie Collette VERECKEN [I have 6 children for them at present].

3] August VAN SNICK abt 1888 marr Leonie DE BODT 1918 in River Hebert and his parents were listed as Peter/Mary = Pierre/Marie.

4] Augustinian VAN SNICK born Jun 1889 marr Florian GANY / GAN / GANT abt 1906 and I have 3 children for them with the first 2 born in Belgium before they arrived in 1909 and the 3rd born in Joggins.

This has been challening but loads of fun!
