Selma and Allen Coates, Edmonton
Try to help a friend of mine to find descendants of Selma and Allen. 1974 they still were in Edmonton: Canada, Voters Lists, 1935-1980 Name: Allen C Coates and Selma Coates. Location: Edmonton; Strathcona, Alberta Occupation: Radio Tech Electoral District: Edmonton-Strathcona Year: 1974 105 Street, nbr 4735 Source Information: Ancestry.com. Canada, Voters Lists, 1935-1980 [database on-line]. Provo, UT, USA: Ancestry.com Operations, Inc., 2012.
Selma was nee Stohl, her mother Selma Stohl nee Lofstrom was born in 1895 in MN. The latter was in Beatty Sask as of 1916 according to Census. Then she was not married to Fred Stohl yet. It has been told me Fred(Walfred) and Selma had many children. My friend has relationship with Stohl/Lofstrom and plans to travel in BC and California in April 2013, she would like to connect with "living relatives" of course. Thanks in advance.

Re: Selma and Allen Coates, Edmonton
Your friend may like to see this local history book on-line. http://www.ourroots.ca/e/toc.aspx?id=6250 Do a Stohl search in the book and click on the page numbers that show up. Not much but at least some photos of Fred and Selma. Butch (board volunteer)

Re: Selma and Allen Coates, Edmonton
Yes, I was aware of this book, have a copy of it at home. What we (me and my friend) wish is to know more about descendants of Selma Lofstrom and Walfred Stohl - i.e. "living relatives", but how ot get that information? Did everyone remain in Canada? Would be grateful if you can point me in any direction. Regards, Bo (board volunteer, Sweden)

Re: Selma and Allen COATES , Edmonton STOHL
Hi Bo, I just read the Coates bio and it says Allen married Selma Stohl, but remarried to Isabel McLachlan. It also says he moved to B.C. http://www.ourroots.ca/e/toc.aspx?id=1541 The bio starts on page 90, but the info is on page 91. Wonder what happened to Selma?? Butch
