Mathew1847 and Anna Holmes1871 both born in England,Anna died here in 1912 in Corbin,B.c.But don't know if she came alone or when she came.Tom Ball 1890 and Selina Lockett 1891 came too but don't know when, but both died here and are buried in Cumberland,B.C.My grandma Emma Annie Ball was born in 1918 in Michel B.C. so they were here by then,sadley she passed away this morning.Mathew and Anna were gypsys according to the census,they were called hawkers and tinkerers or out right gypsys on some,there place of residence was a caravan.Don't even know if they came to Canada for sure.Hard to find info on Michel,B.C.
