Re: Mostowy, Selkirk, MB to AB
have not yet traced the brothers or found any obits or vital stats deaths for any of them or Eudokia or Anton, the information about Mary being from Selkirk was just received in the past few days. And yes, I have searched before and found the Mary in 1912 but her birth was registered in 1912 for Shell River, daughter of Thomas Mostowy and Kathrina Zeleny - my sister in law is chasing that lead down, as she had written to someone quite a few years back and was told at the time that that particular Mary died July 7, 1968 but no other info about her. The document we received was a little blurry, but I believe where the answer was Winnipeg, the question was birthplace (of Mary)
was your family (in 1916 census on manitoba street) related to the Mostowy family in the same house #

Re: Mostowy, Selkirk, MB to AB
I am not related to this family. Manitoba Ave, as well as nearby streets, was home to many Russian/Ukrainian immigrants.
The last records of this family show up in the 1945 voters list. Do you know for sure the names of her brothers?
Attached is a Winnipeg Tribune article from 15 December 1949
Calling the Selkirk library, to get Tony's obit for December 1949, may be helpful.
Also contact the Saint Clement Cemetery to see if they have any other family members and any names attached to the burial record.

Re: Mostowy, Selkirk, MB to AB
thank you for the information, I do not know anything for sure except that Mary was born in 1914 probably Winnipeg, but later lived in Selkirk - on the hunt for any relatives of hers to confirm anything about her, at that age, can only assume she has passed, and given the times, she may never have told anyone she had a baby girl she gave up for adoption.

Re: Mostowy, Selkirk, MB to AB
my mother in law already did that - only document she received was her actual birth certificate, which is where I got the tiny bit of information about Mary from
will keep digging for obits and stuff, but can only access online due to how far away I am from physical records
