Crook(s) of Peggy's Cove/Halifax

karione1220 — 19 Aug 2008 2:26:34 GMT

I am looking for information on my ggg grandfather Isaac Crook (b 1824, d 1870) m. Maria Canton, and my gg grandfather Robert Crook(b 9/20/1854 St. Johns, d.10/13/1921 in Somerville Massachusetts) m. Elizabeth Rafuse

I was told by my grandmother that Isaac was a Sea Captain, and that he was once given the key to the city of Halifax (though she has no idea why). She also mentioned that we have relatives that still live in the Peggy's Cove area of Nova Scotia.

Which brings me to William Crooks - Does anyone have any information on the family referenced here? "Elizabeth BUBBIKOFFER (b 26 Jul 1791, chr 12 Apr 1782-abt 1812), m abt 1812 William Crooks. (Same PANS source, p 111 or 118.) Harris Publicover says she married William Crooks and lived for a time at Blandford, later moving to Peggys Cove where their descendants still live (in 1954.)

Any information would be greatly appreciated.

Mary Napier of Halifax

douglasbrown_1 — 10 Aug 2008 6:15:43 GMT

Can anyone help with any info on this young lady. She was born in Halifax in about 1863.
On the 15th July 1882 she married John Brown (b 1858 Southwick, Durham, England)a soldier, in Halifax (Book 1817 Page 127 No. 159). Her parents were shown as Geo (rge?) a fisherman & Harriett.
The problem I have is that I can't find any mention of her or her parents other than the marriage entry. Nothing in the 1881 census or anywhere else.
Also, if anyone has any info on which British military units were in Halifax at that time that would be a bonus.
Thanks,
Douglas,

British Regiments posted in Halifax

sheilatanner33 — 10 Aug 2008 6:08:29 GMT

If Mr John Cordes could get in touch with me Re: British Regiments in Halifax, I would greatly appreciate it. I am trying to find out where my gggrandfather came from in England. His name was Joseph Planet ( or that's the name he used when he married Catherine Miller.) Did find a marriage bond for a Joseph Planet and Catherine Hilbert?/Hibbert, widow,married Jan 16, 1863, around the time frame I'm looking for, maybe Catherine was married before.Joseph married under a false name and later admitted he was already married with a family in England, and his name was Joseph Davis.

They had a son George b: Aug 13, 1864 and Catherine gave him the Davis name. Found Katherine Planet Davis, d: Oct 1,1921, my gggrandmother.

We have been trying since 2000 for info on him but not knowing where in England he came from it's hard.I did go to the site you memtioned in a previous emial reply and narrowed it done some but thought there might be some records of marriage of British troops somewhere in Halifax.

Hope to hear from you soon,
Thanks in advance, Sheila

HOLLAND Thomas ca 1825, farmer in Halifax Nova Scotia 1876

eehoop — 24 May 2008 3:09:27 GMT

Thomas HOLLAND probably born ca 1825 was a farmer according to his daughter Mary's marriage record. Mary HOLLAND born ca 1854 in Nova Scotia was my GGmother. She married an Irish soldier, Patrick MURRAY in 1876 in Halifax; she was living at Windsor Junction at the time of her marriage. She then travelled with him to Bermuda where he was next stationed then back to Ireland where they had 11 children, 6 of whom survived. I believe Mary had a sister Anne who travelled to Ireland [Cavan] at some time - she acted as sponsor for one of Patrick & Mary's children in Killeshandra in 1885.

Do any of these names sound familiar to anyone? Can anyone give me clues as to where to find out any further information about Thomas - who he married, his other children etc? A Thomas HOLLAND appears in a 1871 directory as living in Bears Cove, but no occupation is given; I cannot tell if it is the same Thomas.

Many thanks to all who can help.

1879 Death Record - Waverly, NS - Joseph Thompson

jedh1 — 21 May 2008 9:09:19 GMT

Good day,

Please respond on board, as that is the only means by which I shall see an answer.

I'm looking for instructions on how to obtain a full death record for a Joseph (L?) Thompson, who died in Waverly on 11-Nov-1879. He was likely a resident at the Masonic Home there, at that time. In 1881, his widow and family resided at "Truro Road", Halfiax County, but he'd been in the home for awhile prior to his death, based on some correlating information recently received.

As this date doesn't fit into the available records at www. novascotiagenealogy.com for their death records, I was wonderin if, perhaps, there would be a more "local" approach to obtaining his full death record? My need for this record is to confirm years of research on just who his parents might have been. Though I have them listed in my database as "fairly certain", CERTAIN would be much more desired.

Again, I don't necessarily need someone who can tell me what I already know, in respect to date and location, but I do need to know if there is any way a full death record for Joseph might be available, might be in existence, somewhere locally in Waverly, or thereabouts.

Many Thanks!

Locating death record/cemetery

Joan — 1 Apr 2005 5:14:16 GMT

Looking for ideas re: searching for death record or cemetery, for William Roberts, Halifax City. Died in 1890's or 1900. Was Roman Catholic; lived on Grafton St; may have belonged to St. Mary's parish (all his kids baptized there).
Any ideas about which cemetery he might be buried in?

Thanks !

Smith/Gravelle and Smith/Leblanc

tentin12 — 9 May 2008 11:40:47 GMT

I am looking for information on these people. I have deadended on them both. This is the information I have on them.
Lizzie (Elizabeth) Smith DOB: about 1875, she is the daughter of Michael Smith and Angelle Gravelle.

Hattie (Harriet) Smith DOB about 1875, she is the daughter of Vital (Vical) Smith and Angeline Leblanc.

They arrived in RI where they are married. I have the marriage records in 1890 and 1898.

Lizzie is either 12 or 14 years old when she arrieves in RI. Her parents are not found in any RI death or census records. Hattie's parents are not found in any death or census records either.

Hattie states she is born in Halifax NS, on one record she gives her birthdate as Aug 1876. She states her parents are English and French.

Lizzie and Hattie both use their nicknames on their marriage records. Later, they are found to use Elizabeth and Harriet.

I did not find any information on the archive website. What should I do next? Would making a request to the Archive help?
BTW, family lore states that Lizzie was Indian. Is Mikmaq a possibility? And how would I find that information? Thanks, Theresa

Looking for info on 2 separate James Pottle's

Irene_Petten — 2 Apr 2008 10:28:59 GMT

The first James George Pottle born Nov.1873 born on Labrador.He moved to Clarkes Beach around 1888 with his mom Sarah & siblings when their dad passed away. He was 15yrs old when his mom moved so he may have stayed on Labrador but not sure,he is the son of John & Sarah Pottle. The other James Pottle I am looking for info about lived in Hr.Grace,CBN,NL in 1921 he was married to Jessie (Seymour) both born in and around 1852, the trouble is I can't find him before 1921 or after 1921 census. The reason I am looking for him is that he would travel from Hr.grace to Clarkes Beach to visit my greatgrand mother Sarah Pottle and her children. So if any one know of either of these pottle gentlemen I would love to hear from you. The first one was my Great Uncle. I can be reached here or directly at irenepetten@hotmail.com

Gilbert Marius Albertsen Stein from Norway

Torill_Aasegg — 25 Aug 2006 12:19:39 GMT

Hi!

I've got a problem I hope some of you can help me to solve.

I’m looking for one of my greatgrandmother’s brothers. His name was Gilbert Marius Albertsen Stein, borned in 1896. He left Norway 21th of July 1927 on board the ship Bergenfjord. He left the ship in Halifax on Nova Scotia, Canada. From that point I don’t know anything about him. His parents was Albert Kristian Gabrielsen Storskardet Stein (1859-1934) from Roan, and Johanne Jensdatter Storvoll (1862-1946) from Stein in Steinsdalen. Bouth Roan and Steinsdalen is in Sør-Trøndelag.

All informations are interessting to me. I'll keep my fingers crossed.

William Byers and Helen Paterson

ve3eur — 26 Mar 2008 12:02:40 GMT

I'm looking for any information on my g-g-g-grandparents, William Byers and Helen Paterson, who emigrated from Ruthwell, Dumfriesshire, Scotland to PEI in 1821 and later moved to New York City via Halifax before returning to Canada in the 1840s.

To set the time frame, I know that one of William's and Helen's children, Jane (Jennie) Byers was born in Halifax in 1837 in between her next older brother, James, who was born in PEI in 1834 and another brother William was born in New York in 1840. Another twist to the story is that Helen's father, Charles Paterson, died in Saint John, NB on 2 January 1848. There is a possibility that there were other relatives living in New Brunswick or Nova Scotia at the time.

I have no idea why or for how long the family was in Halifax nor why they left. Any information that would help solve this mystery would be greatly appreciated.

TIA.

Warrens in Halifax

kygans_rrossb — 24 Mar 2008 4:59:38 GMT

Hello -

I have a James W. Warren. We presume the W. is William, because his son is James William Warren. James W. Warren was born in Halifax, Nova Scotia, in 1814 or 1815. He married Mary Hobson in 1839 in Philadelphia, PA, had 6 children, and died in a horrific train accident Oct. 5, 1852, age 37. I do not know when he came over from Nova Scoita, just that it must have been before 1839.

Their children were

Clara
James W. Jr. (died at age 5)
Thomas C.
Henry L.
Benjamin Franklin
James William (my line)

I know this is not much, but if you have any information, I would appreciate it.

Need lookup or info on James Jackson born prior to 1815 in Nova Scotia

chloechampion — 19 Mar 2008 6:07:00 GMT

James Jackson was born in Canada prior to 1815 and married Hannah nee Bezanson who was born in Chester County Nova Scotia. It seems he was possibly close to the Bezanson's in Lunenburg because his father in law John William Bezanson died in James' home in 1868.

They had at least one son named James J. Jackson born Feb 10, 1848 married Elizabeth nee Halloran 07 Oct 1868 in Halifax. James J. Jackson died in 1901 from pulmonary tuberculosis.

Any info would be very much appreciated! The Jackson family were Irish or Scotch Irish I believe and James may have been the first to arrive in Canada ...

Any help would be so much appreciated!

Elizabeth Halloran born Nova Scotia 1850 - looking for info on parents, siblings, etc

chloechampion — 19 Mar 2008 6:16:58 GMT

Elizabeth Halloran was born on Oct 13th 1850 in Nova Scotia I believe in Halifax - parents names are possibly father Morris or Maurice Halloran from Ireland and mother Elizabeth (not sure of maiden name).

Elizabeth married James J. Jackson and was widowed in 1901. Elizabeth "Eliza" Jackson nee Halloran died on Dec 6th 1917 as a result of the Halifax Explosion in Richmond and lost almost all of her children and grandchildren. She is believed to be of Irish parentage at least on her paternal side.

The book Too Many To Mourn goes in great detail about my ancestors. I am one of the few remaining of this line and would love any information.
