Hello,

I am researching my family roots in Quebec.
As usual I run out of info from time to time and needs to seek assistance

My 5th great grandfather on my mother's side was Henry Urquhart who came to Canada from Scotland with his Wife Jane Watt around 1842.

They came to Montreal and spent the rest of there lives living on Prince St.
I know they had 3 children Alexander, Euphemia and J. (John or James but not sure yet). After that it is a little vague. If anyone knows of any connections, please let me know

Thank you

I'm still not sure how this site works, but I am looking for records of a Simon Healey who lived in London, Ontario in the late 1800's. Specifically his Irish ancestory. Also, not sure how he spelledhis name - Simon or Simeon, ...: Healey or Healy

Hi Maggie;
Here's an alternative way to possibly find someone willing to take some pictures.
There is a Saskatchewan Geocaching group at http://www.saskcachers.com/news.php , if you click on the contact me link and fill out the forum asking if the Admin could forward your request to his members. I am not a member of this group, but I did have some success on another geocaching site for a lady on another genealogy site.
Geotagging is becoming popular with photographers and genealogists to mark gravesite pictures, so contacting someone who geocaches is, to me, a natural progression. You might have to wait until the snow is gone.
Good luck in your search.

Maggie, check out www.raogk.org (Random Acts of Genealogical Kindness) and see if there is anyone in that area to help you with your pictures.

I am searching for information on James Thompson. He imigrated from Ireland with his brother, to Canada. Where they separated and lost track of one another. James married some time in the late 1840's or early 50's to Dinah, I believe her maiden name may have been Byron. They were both born in the early 1820's. Their first child was William, born in 1853, Ontario, probably in Elizabethtown, Brockville. I believe James died prior to the 1881 census. I have located them in the 1871 census, before that not having much luck. Would like to find the links back to Ireland.
