Thanks Janice m
lots of great info
i have been trying for ages to find Theodosia all the times i have tried elsewhere came up with nothing, i have details of her new husband and children. The only piece missing now is theodosia`s death dates.
She is buried in Moousejaw {1970`s i think?}acording to a relie but no one has been able to find that either.
Many thanks to you for your time and finding my missing link. :) :)

Have looked through some cemetery listings, but she doesn't show yet...
So her married name was Theodosia Johns, correct, as you say you have the information?
More indexing going on at all times, so it may still show one day...
I did find two Theodosia, ( not yours) one in Bienfait & one in MooseJaw, so not an uncommon name. ;D

Hi j.j. thanks for having a look.
theodosia adams[cooper] married 1918 estevan
daniel john b.1886 wales died 1944 estevan
Have been told by relative Theodosia was buried in Moosejaw not sure how far apart Moosejaw is to Estevan , could it be she was buried with daniel in estevan and not moosejaw.
A lot of people have tried to find her records but no one has found her. I am now wandering had she married a third time also??
-
Have you written to the cemetery in which he is known to be interred? J.J.
-
Hi j.j , I have sent an e-mail to the cemetary i believe he is in,i hope it is the correct person. Dates are not same but close.
I have been relying on the info past to me,i may have to double check all the info i have.
I know Theodosia`s details up untill her first husband died are correct it`s after he died things go pearshaped :)
-
j.j. can you send details of the Theodosia you found in moousejaw or send a link please.

Hi! Not all cemeteries are online, though.... I guess you could check ages with this information....but without a marriage to trace down?

Thanks J.J. i am going to try anything to try and find her. She is giving me a head ache.

Here is another link for the cemeteries. Don't trust the search though. It doesn't show all of the Adams listed.

Theodosia John, nee Galway, was my grandmother Mary Galway's younger sister. As far as I know she was married only twice.
So I have been trying to track down her memorial/grave in Moose Jaw to no avail. Theodosia's first husband Samuel Adams served in the 4th Canadian Light Infantry and was killed by a shell at the battle of the Somme on 8th October 1916.
