Hi Kate,

My name is Shari Diamond. I am a grand daughter of Olive Gibbons. My mother is the 'Bambi' you mentioned in an earlier post. Her name is actually Nannette:) I sent you a private message but based on the above information, I think I have to post a couple of times before you would get that. I would love to share anything I can about your Canadian family if you are still interested. I have a couple of old photos I can pass on to you. It was funny to read of the baby in the photo. I think it must be me. I was born October, 1966. I think My cousin Deb is a few years older, so it wouldn't have likely been her.  Would love to hear from you:)  take care.

Shari

Hi Kim,

I am looking for ancestrykim...would that be you?  I am Olive Gibbons Hissa's grandaughter Shari.  My mother is "Bambi" who's real name is Nannette.  My grandfather Martin passed away when my mom was a little girl.  My Nana, Olive, who I have to say, I love and adored more than any other, was an Orphan in England - Croydon.  She was sent to Canada (I thought at 16 but your post would indicate 15).  My aunitie Barb died of lung cancer about 10 years ago and my Uncle Bill - Wiliiam Stevenson - still lives in London Ontario.  My Nana, Olive, actually had 4 children not 3...Martin, Barbara, Dianne and Nannette (Bambi) my mom.  Please email me at * if I have the correct person.  I am 45 years old.  I  know my Nana (Olive) had three sisters and brother who disappeared in WW1 or 11?  One of my Nana's sister's was named Rose. I do hope to hear from you.  How exciting!  BTW...I live in Winnipeg Canada and have 3 daughters of my own.  I always thought it interesting that I was one of three girls, my mom was one of three girls, my Nana was one of three girls and I have 3 girls myself...and if there was a fourth...it was always a boy:)

Sincerely,
Shari^(*)
