I would love to see a photo of Pheobe (I understand from something I read that she was known as Tilly - I will have to scour my notes to see if I can find the reference) with her children. It will be interesting to see whether or not there is a family resemblence in the children with any of our side of the tree. I will send you my email address via a private message.

Do you have any details of Samuel Baytor SEYMOUR's death and place of burial. He has been very elusive and I have not been able to locate either of these pieces of information, although it is some time since I last did a search.

At long last I have found a reference to Phoebe's death.
This is the entry in The Lethbridge Herald dated 27th July 1921

"Mother and Daughter Drowned.
Regina July 23. Mrs R M Seymour and her daughter, two and a half years old, were drowned at Lac Pelletier, in the Cadillac district, south of Swift Current, on Saturday night. Both bodies have been recovered"

Now to find out their place of burial.
Regards
Nell
