If you have anymore info or pictures to share that would be greatly appreciated. There was a book with my grandmother as a toddler, her siblings, and parents in it. As well as baseball pics of her. If you know the name of the book so I can get one. Thank you.

Tracy,
I'm interested in knowing how and who you are related to within the Ashley family and am VERY interested in asking about this book you mentioned in your post.

Hi Kem,
I am the oldest daughter of 3 of Mark Ashley, who is the youngest son of Elva Evans and Ken Ashley. I seen this book as a child. It is a history book of some kind with details of the original pioneers/farmers in Grand Prairie, Alberta. I do not know the name of it but I would like to know it, buy it, and read it. Keep it for my child.
How are you related to the Ashley family?

I'm not directly related through direct blood lines but my Great grandmother was Lillian HIE who married Elon AUSTIN. Lillian was the eldest of 17 children and her youngest sister, Milred "Mille" Hie married Wilfred Joseph Ashley (s/o Elijah & Julia COOK Ashley). They had 5 children, the eldest named Earl Elijah Ashley. Earl has 3 youngest sisters and a younger brother.
I have a self published book I researched and compiled of the entire HIE family and most of their spouses & children (descendants), going through many, many generation (both forward & backwards) . I worked almost 6 years on the research for this book which contains many references and hundreds of photos. This family originally was from various areas of Ontario who were originally from England then, as the generations grew, migrated to various areas of Canada & some in the United States.
I am in close contact with my cousin, Earl who is still alive and is most interested in helping me & possibly you, uncover more about the Ashley family. Earl and his children are VERY excited about your contacting me and we all would be most grateful if you (or any one else for that matter) would be interested in helping us fill in more details of the Ashley family line.
How is your grandparents connected to this line?? Who are their parents, etc?
You might consider contacting me through my regular email address at ptownpest at aol.com
Look forward to hearing back from you in near future. Kem
