I did not find a birth registration for her. The above items are the only information I found on her but both give the same birth dates.
Births are only released to 1913 but they may have been late registering it or maybe not at all.

Re: Joly / Guerin Query

sandyjboo1 — 2013-02-26 12:57:53Z

This is a Registration of Birth from the Archives of Ontario
and is on line at Ancestry.ca. Births available from 1869-1913 and Marriages from 1801-1928.

The marriages for 1929-30 are now available to the public and 1931 will be later this year when indexing has been completed.

These records can be accessed through Intra-Library loan or at Family History Centres. Eventually they'll find their way to Ancestry.ca.

Dear SandyJboo1 - Thank you very much for the image you so kindly sent to me. It very clearly shows that Lola Guerin was born June 2 1913. This looks like a primary document and it clearly identifies both parents. Can you tell e what this document is referred to in "the genealogy business"? Thanks again - this is really awesome.

tim1smith1 — 2013-02-25 20:16:48Z

Thank you very much for the material you provided. The date of birth is helpful for sure. It looks like the priest did get the parents name wrong. Interesting that she was going to New York at 16 to work as a servant / maid - I didn't know that but it makes sense. Byng Inlet was a town that depended on industry related to natural resources and its hay-day was ending around the time Lola would have been 16. As I try to track down the date of marriage do you think that microfiche of the Sudbury star a good place to begin? I wonder if there is a database of marriages in the Sudbury area? A database that could be searched?

I am looking for the date of birth and date of marriage for my grandmother who grew up in Sudbury. Her maiden name was Lola Guerin and she was born in Byng Inlet. She was married to Rolland Joly in Sudbury in or around 1930. She lived in Sudbury until her early adult years after which she and her family relocated to Little Current on Manitoulin Island. She had three daughters (Jacqueline, Judy, Francis) and one son (Jack / Jean-Paul). She had a sister who lived all her life in Copper Cliff - married name Johnstone.

I don't have any siblings other than the note that maybe Frank's father was Samuel. there are several Loiselle's in Sudbury that are NOT descendants of Louis Loisel ... so hard to sort things out.

Hi, Research doing great but I have been working on my mothers family tree...I am sorry but I don't have Francis Loiselle nor Marie Louise Trottier in my tree. But if you give me more info like the date of birth an area where they come from...siblings names, I can hopefully help to find more info...Have a great day!!!

Hi bunnykelly!

Although not closely related by any means, I thought I would still post, as I am working on the same lines as you. I realize this is an old posting and perhaps the notification wont make it to you.

My connection is

James Condie and his first wife Isabella Drysdale,
their son Isaac Condie m: Margaret McLaren.
Isaac and Margarets son Herbert Gates Condie married to
Flora Jessie Johnston

Flora Jessie Johnston is a daughter of Samuel Johnston and Margaret "Maggie" Holt.

Samuel Johnston is a brother to my 2nd great grandmother, Rebecca Jane Holden (nee Johnston), both children of Robert P. Johnston and Rebecca Wilson.

Always happy to share information.

Hawthorne / Condie

bunnykelly — 2013-02-11 14:12:43Z

Archie HAWTHORNE and Hetty CONDIE were married in Mattawa, Ont in 1891. They lived in various locations in the Sudbury area, including Blezard, Markstay and Sudbury.

Archibald Cameron (son of Patrick HAWTHORNE and Selena DOWNEY, of Goulbourne Twp, Carleton Co, Ont) was a labourer and construction worker. Hetty (daughter of James CONDIE and Ann BROWN, of Beachburg, Ont) particularly enjoyed roaming the barren Sudbury hills picking blueberries!

Their children were: George (m Hattie Redden), Alexander, Edna (m John Lyle and ? Paul), Thomas, Herbert, Berthilda (m Julius Gillis) and her twin, my mother, Ruby (m Ultan Kelly).

I am seeking any 'lost' cousins out there!

Re: Alice (née Roy) Menard's disappearance

gaffer28 — 2013-01-18 15:39:13Z

Hi, I'm Andre Marcotte (nee Ross) and I found your post on ancestry.ca, indicating your mother was Alice's sister.

My mother, Claudette Menard, was Alice's daughter. I would be interested in what information you can shed on Alice's disappearance.

All I've been told, by my adoptive parents, is that the Menard kids were put up for foster care after Alice disappeared and when Laurent went to jail. The police also unearthed the yard to try to locate her.

I hope you can provide more information.

Thanks for your time.

Re: Noelville, Ontario - birth/marraige/death registers

michele_eh — 2013-01-15 21:59:57Z

I only have access to the St. David parish registers and there is no indication of native status published in them. You might try looking up her family information in the online census databases. From what I could find out she was baptised at L'Orignal, Prescott, Ontario, but again, no indication of native status. If you are trying to get solid evidence of native ancestry for registration purposes, you may have to apply for her long form birth registration.

Hi David, thanks for your message, I'm very grateful. Funnily enough I discovered the same information from your brother via email earlier this year! He found some photos of George (Wally) which he posted to my Mum (one with your grandmother Dorothy who looked a lovely lady). Mum was very happy to make contact with her father's step family and to discover that he had gone on to make a happy life back in Canada. Thank you once again for taking the time to reply. Kind regards, Tracy (your step second cousin - I think!)

I realize this response is over a year late, but I thought I would reply anyway. I'm Wesley's youngest son.

My father kept his biological fathers name (Shambrook). Of the 3 boys, my dad is the only surviving child (79 years old).

When I was young, i spent most of my first summers at their house in sudbury.

I talked with my dad, but his memory is very limited in general, so he wasn't a lot of help. He did give me a photo album that of his family with notes in it, but I couldnt find any references to siblings or Wally (I didnt realize his name was George, we called him Grandpa Wally)

Re: Joseph Elmer Cecil Dubroy

satch42179 — 2012-11-17 20:23:03Z

His death registration should have names of parents on it.
Also you should be able to figure out approximately when he got married by birth of first child. His marriage registration would have parents on it.
Also he is the right age to have been in WW2. You can get those records from the government.

Here is one site for registrations.
