I am seeking details and information on the family of JOHN REED LONG, who was residing in Lacombe during the 1930's.

JOHN REED LONG was the son of Morley Long & Hattie Reid, of Brandon Manitoba. He was born in 1906 in Brandon, Manitoba and only had one other brother, namely Morley Cameron Long.

Any information about this family would be greatly appreciated.

With thanks,
Kevin.

Hi:

Thanks for the Manitoba vital stats supplied. They were all for the family except the marriage posting of Harriet Long & Wm. John Davis as she never remarried following the death of her husband.

The source used to have determined the residence of John Reed Long was the 1933 obit of his mother, Harriet Long which had been published in the Brandon newspaper. This had stated that he was living in Lacombe, Alberta. His brother, Morley Cameron Long was residing in Carnduff at the time of his mother's death as well.

Thanks again for your interest and assistance.

Regards,
Kevin.
