Franklin Family, R.M. of Rockwood 1890's to present

Posted: 26 Feb 2013 8:00PM GMT
Classification: Query
Surnames: Franklin, Foulds
I am searching for any descendents of Thomas Franklin (b. abt 1813, England, d. 4 Sep 1895 in Rockwood) and his wife Mary Foulds, (b. 11 Apr 1830, St. John's, MB; d. abt 1867, MB)

It is known that several of his son Jacob's (b. Feb 1863 at St. James, d. 26 Dec 1909 in Rockwood) children remained in the general area of Rockwood. Jacob was married to Mary Ann Jane Taylor (b. 3 Jun 1868 at St. Andrews, m. 4 Jul 1892, Rockwood, death unknown).

Their children were: NOTE: all born in Stony Mountain

Herbert Thomas Franklin, b. 15 May 1893, d. 18 March 1954
Howard Francis Franklin, b. 28 Nov 1894
Ida Caroline Franklin, b. 26 Jun 1897
Joseph John Franklin, b. 14 Jul 1899
William Benjamin Franklin, b. 30 Mar 1901
George C. Franklin, b. abt 1905 (nothing more is known of him)
Marvel Frances Franklin, b. 18 Aug 1907

All of the children, except for George C. married and had families (I have a fair amount of data on them).

I descend from Mary Foulds, through her 1st marriage. I would very much like to correspond with any descendents of these Franklin's. I am more than willing to share the genealogical information I have collected on the family.

I thank you for posting, but this is all information that I already had.

I am very specifically looking for any descendants of this family. I wish to add to my genealogical data, and also share the data I have on their ancestral lines.
