Hi everyone,
I seem to be having trouble logging in and I am going to Newfoundland in three weeks and am hoping to get some assistance from the people on this list. My family and I are going to be in the Windsor-Grandfalls area and in the Mary’s town region and want to be able to do some research while there visiting a few remaining family members.
I would appreciate any assistance that can be offered and would love direct emails back to me at
edelong@rogers.com as I seem to have trouble with the list serve. Below is what I know about my ancestors, I would really like to follow the Barry line back further to know where we originated from but have reached a road block…..I have searched the free internet sites that I found but with little success.
My Grandma is Francis Barry born May 3 1928 in GrandFalls, Newfoundland and died October 24, 1967 in Exeter, Ontario
married to Stanley Preszcator
She was born to Nicholas Barry born 25 Nov 1899 in JeandeBaie, Newfoundland; died Nov 1993 and her mother was Donella Veronica Goodyear born 8 Feb 1911 in PetiteForte Newfoundland died 22 Feb 1998
Nicholas Barry was born to Richard Barry born abt. 1870 in JeandeBaie and died 3 May 1956 in JeandeBaie he was married to Francis Withers born abt 1875 in Rock Harbour died 22 Jul 1928
Any information/direction/advice is very appreciated. I am planning to send a request to the family members who have email (asking my aunt if there are any people with email) to ask that they begin to complete their family information so that I can add it to the one I am doing in Family Tree Maker – I just got the program so not sure yet if there is a way for me to share it with them via email – if someone knows please tell me.
Again, I really appreciate any help and am very open to all advice as I just decided to do this since my family decided to go and visit the locations where our family lived before. It is exciting as there are my dad, his wife; me and my husband; three of my aunts and some of their children…..can’t wait to see what it is like in Newfoundland.
Sincerely,
Beth De Long
