I am the Granddaughter of Henry and Caroline. They were both born in Ont and both died in Vanc, BC. My mother, Caroline Hazel Finch was the last of their seven children all born in Ponoka, Alberta between 1893 and 1908. I would be very interested to hear from anybody who may have information on this line of Finch's.
