Canada Lookup Request / Re: Frederick Charles Bearman

Thanks J.J.
I understand my Aunt stumbled across the thread from 2006 after doing a Google search of my Grandfather's name this past weekend. She was quite excited as were my parents and the excitement continues to build with this new found connection to Suzanne and new information about our past.
I'm new to genealogy but I keep thinking what an incredible tool the internet is for this. What we accomplished in a couple of days would have likely taken years (or not been possible) before the web.
Thanks for the link to the passenger lists. This is so interesting.

Hi Suzanne,
Wow is right. That is without a doubt my Grandfather so it looks very likely that we are related.
I spoke with my Mom and Dad this evening over the phone and they're quite excited about this (Dad had never seen this photo before so that was strange for him). They're going to get the family history organized along with some photos and we're anxious to share all this with you. Dad knew that there were 9 in the family but it's likely there could have been one more we weren't aware of. Ted Bearman lived not far from here in Assiniboia, Sk. Ted was married to Mabel and his son, Ron (Dad's cousin), still lives in Moose Jaw which is only 45 minutes from Regina. Ron had 2 other brothers, Doug & Bert.
We didn't know anything about Eva Wilson so this was a real surprise. Grandpa married Margaret Nicol on June 25, 1925 in Medicine Hat, Alberta. I remember Grandpa well but I was only 9 or so when he died. Dad's always said that Grandpa never talked much about his family in England and would just say that he'd lost track of them after the war. We're certainly very interested in finding out more about this.
I've attached the one photo of Grandpa I have stored on my computer. This was taken at Mom & Dad's wedding in 1960. You'll be able to pick Frederick Charles out second from the left. At the left is Jim Aberdeen, Dad's best man who was referenced in a Sask Archives photo earlier in this thread along with Dad (they were doing a sing-along on a train car). To the right of Grandpa is his daughter (my Aunt) Shirley, and to her right my Dad, Frederick Ross. The fellow on the far right is another family friend.
I'll compile more information Suzanne along with photos and we'll talk to you soon.

Hi Siouxzie,
My name is William Frederick (Bill) Bearman. I currently live in Regina, Saskatchewan. My father is Frederick Ross Bearman (also of Regina) and his father was Frederick Charles Bearman, originally of London. My Dad also has a sister Shirley Bearman (now Blackburn) who resides in Saskatoon, Sask.
Grandpa did fight in Europe in World War 1 and upon his return to Canada married Margaret Nicol (originally from Glasgow, Scotland) and worked for the railroad in Swift Current, Saskatchewan. Grandpa passed away around 1970.
I'd love to share more details but want to get my facts and dates straight so I'll need my Dad's help with that. Post me back and we can go from there.
I'm totally new to this so appreciate your patience. Look forward to hearing from you.
Bill
