yes indeed that is him as Irvine area was called Assiniboia at that time. I have some details re his death from a book on Irvine (New Beginnings) but cannot locate where he might be buried. Gottfried Meier (Meiyer - Maier) B Sept 25 1959 in Russia. Married Christine Voegele 1884. She remarried after he died but we do not know to whom. Have found burial for many other ancestors. have checked Sask Cemeteries project without luck.

Hi Always best to enter the Surname of Inerest in Capital Letters on the Subject line, followed by the given name
Posting any further information eg time frame/ location -etc that might help others help you.

According to messages posted - it appears that your research is in the Province of Saskatchewan.

You might want to post your message to the General Message Board for Saskatchewn or -the Message board for the ara - where the family lived / died.

Though the Cemeteries Project is excellent - it is far from complete -
