Surnames: CAVANAGH-BORDEN-AUGER-O'ROURKE-ROULEAU
Searching for information on the decendents of Mabel Lillian Milford B 1889 and James "Jim" Barr B 1880.

I have additional information on the Barr family but I am particularly interested in information on Mabel Lillian Milford.

Hi Ron,
Sorry I can't be of help - a thought.
Perhaps posting your message to the General Message Board for Alberta:
http://www.tiscali.co.uk/reference/dictionaries/plants/data/...
Your message will be seen at that site - As Well - will be Gatewayed to the Rootsweb Mailing List for Alberta - with many subscribers in Alberta - across Canada and elsewhere - giving you many more people reading your message - giving you a greater chance of success in finding descendents.

Also see the Alberta GenWeb Local History Books - perhaps your will find some family members :

Wishing you much luck with your search.
Cheers, Stella

Stella; When I posted my query, I posted it to all boards so it should show up on a large number of boards including the Alberta board.

I have two Milford families and we can not determin where the Barr family fits in. I had a paper file sent to me regarding the Barr's but it is all just who married who, no locations. The original researcher has passed away so I don't know where she got her information from.

Thanks for the reply, I'll just keep on digging.

Ron

Hi Ron,
Searching some of the other Alberta message boards - including Alberta General Message board - So far.
The only Barr / Milford posting - seems to be here at the Airdrie City message board.
I did search by above - as well by the author of the message - Ron Milford -
Perhaps I am just not searching correctly. Just thought you might be interesed. Cheers, Stella

You can order death papers, however when ordering this you are given 2 options - the Certificate,
or a "Certified Photographic Print of the Registration of Death" which usually gives more information than that fancy Certificate.
