Still searching for birth of Ambrose George DeWolf - son of Agnes Cain (Kane or Caine) and William or Wilby (Will B) DeWolf. on or about 20 August 1892. Probably a home birth but hopefully recorded somewhere.

Looking for info re: my g.g. grandmother, first name unknown but she was the wife of John Cain. She may be the "Wife of John Cain" who was buried in the Emanuel United Church Cemetery. I am searching for her first name, d.o.b., d.o.d., names of children. etc. Wondering why she & her husband weren't buried in the same cemetery/city. Many thanks!

All of the names arrived in mid-nineteenth century to Morrison Township, and Sparrow Lake area - Stantons came when it was Muskoka, then Simcoe County. Canning from Ireland, the others from England.

Would like to know about and the history of the carlton family.

Looking for a George and Mary Ann Compton, born in Lincolnshire, England in 1821 and 1823. Emigrated to Muskoka area about 1873 with three sons, Henry, George and David. Found them on 1881 Census but no-where else. Thank you.

I am wondering if there is any info on who CORBMAN’s POINT on FRANKLIN ISLAND a is named after....my maiden name is CORBMAN and I am the very last of the family in Canada. I did not know of this point/Franklin Island, so am very curious....I do know that Arthur Barrett CORBMAN & family lived in the area until about 1907 when the emigrated to the United States....I think he was a farmer but don’t where he may have had property. Any info greatly appreciated. Many thanks, Doris

I'm looking for information on Grace Yvonne Eniza Couture, born in Burk's Falls, Parry Sound, in January 1901. Her father was Samuel Joseph Couture and her mother was probably Josephine O'Brien (but may also have been Margaretee McKay or Mary Ann Nichols. Her father died in 1916 and the next record I find of her was when she married Robert Burns MacMillan in Ontario in 1928. He died just months later and then she married George Crane Loomis in Chicago a year later. They then moved to Lombard, IL, USA in 1936 and adopted a son who then died a year later and it seems she had some kind of nervous breakdown. By 1940, she and George Loomis were no longer living together and I lose all trace of her. I'd really like to fill in some of the holes of her life story (between 1916 and 1928 and then after 1939).
