Hi Susan, You have posted your query to the Message Board for Vancouver Island. Did Annie or family live in this area?

STURGIS does not appear to be a very common name.
There are other STURGIS names shown. perhaps also family connected.

Stella-
Thank you SO much for the leads. I knew George Henry Sturgis was my mother's brother but am now going to do more searching re: the other 2 Sturgis males who died in Chilliwack area. They may also be brothers.

found this on line but un able to view picture but this is the write up that went with it.

The four persons in this photo are George Henry Sturgis (1870-1918) along with his son and namesake. On the left is his wife, Annie Kelly, while on the right is the only pictorial representation we have of Lisa Denholm who was the half sister of George Henry. They both had the same mother - Barbara Kipp

same tree, other pictures comments

Category: Portrait
Photo Date: 1922-24
Photo Location: presumably Chilliwack B.C.
Description: With Annie, it is assumed, are daughter Ellen in the middle and George Henry Sturgis Jr.'s wife, Helen Louise Waugaman


George Henry Sturgis (who was, of course, half brother of James Theodore Sturgis (1872-1951))

George Henry Sturgis JR
Named after his father (1869-1918), he was born in 1902 and eventually left British Columbia to marry and to live in Bellingham, Washington, USA and died in 1986.


Portrait
Photo Date: 1905?
Photo Location: Chilliwack, British Columbia
Description: A later uncropped version of this photo gives the name of the other members of this unlikely looking baseball team. One of them, right front, was a Kipp. In fact, George Henry undoubtedly followed in the footsteps of the Kipps, several of whom moved westwards and were pioneers in Chilliwack.



Category: Portrait
Photo Date: About 1929
Photo Location: Washington USA
Description: The child on the left is Hazel Sturgis who was the daughter of George Henry Sturgis Jr., who in turn was the son of my great-uncle. The other two young ones are cousins Leo and Charolet.



Category: Portrait
Photo Date: 1920?
Photo Location: British Columbia
Description: I am awaiting confirmation that this photo is indeed of John Scott. His mother was Annie Kelly and he was obviously from her first marriage. In BC she married my great Uncle, George Henry Sturgis.
