Film - The Coady Family of St. John's

Surnames: COADY
Hello,

I recently found a reference to a documentary film in an early issue of the Newfoundland Ancestor magazine. Vol.2, Issue 3, p.6 (1986) recounted the events of the Annual General Meeting of the Newfoundland and Labrador Genealogical Society, on April 22, 1986 at the University Library.

In the summary of proceedings of the Annual General Meeting:
["... there was a film presentation of the documentary entitled "The Coady Family of St. John's".
Unfortunately because of the poor sound quality, all of the film could not be shown."]

Does anyone know anything about this movie, who produced it, or where I could find a copy?

Thank you,

I'm going to answer my own question here and point to the Memorial University DELTS Video Collection, pre-1994 (http://collections.mun.ca/cdm/landingpage/collection/extensi...) which seems to have a great collection of old MUN videos of historical and potentially genealogical value.

I think that maybe the Coady video I was looking for is this one called "I can mind the time ... : with Tom and William Coady (blacksmiths): (http://collections.mun.ca/cdm/singleitem/collection/extensio...)

Good luck to others who may want to look for anything related to their surnames.
