Hi everyone!
I just wanted to let you all know that I asked my great Aunt (her mother, my  great nana was Gertrude Skelcy) about Gertrudes siblings and her cousins. And she said that she remembers ALL of her aunts and uncles. I guess that Charles and Emma Skelcy had 1 more child. Also it appears that they divorced, or one died, since there was 2 half siblings  to Gertrude as well. She is going to write out all this information and send it via regular mail, since she is in Canada and I am in the states. Plus she is healing from knee surgery.
I cant wait until I can get the information and share it with those of you who are interested in some living Skelcys in Canada.

Warm regards
Jilly

It's OK Carla, Koala is somebody different we're trying to reach. You've made 30+ posts so there should be no problem messaging you.

Take care, Chris

Hi Jilly, thanks for the info.

For the benefit of those not in the know, Jilly is descended from Charles Skelcey, eldest son of David Skelcey of Cubbington (and Rugby) and a brother to the George Skelcey who married Harriet Harrod in Cubbington (the ancestors of all that line including Phil's), and of Helen or Ellen Skelcey who married George Stanley, Carol's Ancestors. So not close relatives of the other Canadian (later American) Skelseys who are (we think) more closely related to me.   

Charles and Emma emigrated to Stratford, Ontario in 1911. Chris

And for the benefit of Koala, who has on reflection slept in Oz through all this sudden activity on the thread, and will wake up to just one email pointing him here:

The message for you is #96!

Sorry. Koala is the Skelcey relative (also from George and Harriet of Cubbington) whom we can't reach because he can no longer receive private messages. I just hope he sees message #96!

Hi this is Koala32,

Messages take a long time to reach Australia!!!

I hope that by sending this I have reassured you that I am alive and well and therefore reading the messages. Sorry I have been "unavailable" for a while but I am back now.

Regards,
