I am interested in sharing information with you and your wife, as she and I have common ancestors: a railroad engineer for the Northern Pacific (who died in Detroit in 1910) Charles E. POUNDS (born Columbus, Ohio) and his London-Ontario born wife, Margaret CARR.

Recently, at the FGS convention in Birmingham, Alabama, I received some assistance in finding more about Maggie Carr's elusive parents: William CARR (a British soldier who came to Newfoundland in the 1840s) and Margaret HOLLAND (or O'Holleran) - Irish-born (but where?) - I now have eleven military documents that prove where William was born.

I am also in Facebook under this email address: Microfish7@aol.com

Thank you,

Al Dawson
