Andrew

I do hope that my personal message will explain much.

I forgot to mention that I do have access to ancestry.com. Census images are wonderful... but, you are giving me so much more information with detailed pictures, etc...

Do you have a lost ancestor in Saskatchewan?  I'd love to help. :)

You're finding some good stuff here Andrew, Nice one!!!

Donna, you can find some Mossop information here

http://www.jillcoulthard.com/mossop_summary_html_feb2005.html

Looks like your Pattinsons and my Pattersons married into the same family,
My Andrew Patterson married Frances Mossop from  St Bees

Thank you for the link, Jim. How exciting!

Research flood gates seem to have been unleashed for me! My great-great grandfather, William Pattinson, came from St. Bees. I wish I had more time to explore, but I must be patient until harvest is done.

Happy day,
Donna

All

I hope I have been of help whilst off work, I have all the details of the requests I have and if I come across any more information, I'll post it on

It has filled in some of my time as well

I have been back working for a living for a week, I am totally shattered (not used to getting up)

Andrew,
Thank you very much for the photos of the Kerr headstones. I'll have to look closely to see if they are related to my Kerr's. Hope the new job is going well.
Best wishes,

You've been such a huge help, Andrew. Thanks ever so much!

I won't know where to start on all the information that you have found for me when harvest is over. That's an exciting feeling! :)

Happy day
