I am seeking information on Herbert Chalker. Estimated birth: 1863. Originally from Greene, Chenango, New York, United States. On the Canadian 1891 census, Herbert is listed as 28 years old, living in Ontario, in the district of Muskoka and Parry Sound, in the sun-district of Lount and Machar and Laurier. His daughter Edith Mae Chalker (who was born and married in Canada) is my great, great grandmother. Thank you in advance for your time!
