Connections to Lake and Strickland families. Cousin Daisy Strickland moved to Trenton, NS. Any information appreciated.

Not sure if there is a connection,but... My G-Grandmother Mary Purchase askey of Lamaline,NF had a relative(?) and I have a phop of a tombstone in Lamaline cemetery for Albert Purchase died Nov.5th, 1923 aged 70 years. Another tombstone is for Thomas W. Purchase 1890-1972. Not sure of their relation.

I am trying to piece together the Purchase family from your
clues. Was Daisy the daughter of Amelia Ann Purchase
and Samuel Cox Strickland? Amelia was the sister of
the drowned Albert Purchase. There is a Daisy Strickland
listed in the 1921 census of Fortune, NF born Jan. 1898.
She is listed along with a sister Mela born Dec 1905, but no
parents are listed (perhaps they had died by 1921?).
