SOMERFELDT. I can place my grandmother, Otille Somerfeldt, in the Fenwood area in the summer of 1912. However I do not know why she was there unless visiting relatives??
I am looking for Otille'
parents - Mike and ???, and siblings, Alfred, Julia and Augusta. I believe
Julia married a LOEWEN, and Augusta married a KRUGER/KRIEGER. These two married
sisters lived in Michigan between 1920 and 1936. Otille married my grandfather
Henry Schuetz, farming in
Neidpath, Sask. I would appreciate information on the Sommerfeldt family
origins and
Otille's parents, siblings, and whereabouts of their descendants.
Thanks for any help.

I'm looking for information
on my gggrandparents, Adam and Phoebe Mick. Adam was listed as living in the Whitewood
area on the 1891 census. I believe that he and possibly Phoebe may be buried in
one of the Whitewood cemeteries - either NW7-16-2-W2 or SE24-17-2-W2. Adam may
have died during the 1890's - he's not on the 1901 census. Any information
would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

In 1904, Henry Charles
Barnett, his wife Elizabeth Ann and his children, came to live in Grenfell. They
came over from England. It is believed that Henry had a job with the town of
Grenfell. My husbands' grandfather, George William Barnett was one of Henry's
sons. We're trying to put together a family tree and was wondering if you would
have any suggestions of how to research more about Henry. If he did work for
Grenfell, would there be any records? Maybe there would be records of the birth
of some of the children that were born in Grenfell. They had 7 in all. We're
not sure if 3 or 4 of them were born before arriving in Canada. One daughter,
Patricia, married Gibb Tomlinson (not sure of the spelling)
and they lived in Grenfell. Any information you could supply would be most
welcome.
Thanks in advance. Carolyn Barnett

I have a photocopy of the
death page from my grandfather's Bible in which he wrote that my grandmother
and also his 2nd wife are buried in Stockholm, Canada. There is no indication
of which cemetery it was, but I would suspect a Lutheren one as the family was
Swedish and lived in the Excel District. His brother(s) may also be buried in
the same cemetery as one lived in Stockholm at the time of his death. Are there
any cemetery indexes available for Stockholm or any other way I might ascertain
where they are buried? Also I would like to ascertain when the brother who
lived in Stockholm died as I do not have that information but have heard a
story that there seemed to be some mystery surrounding his death. Would you
know if there is or was a newspaper in Stockholm or a death index available for
the area?
