I really hope you can help me. I’m trying to find any information bout my great great grandparents. My great great grandmothers name is Phoebe Oakley born 1859 not sure when she passed away but I do know she was 22 years of age, and my great great grandfather born 1853 again not sure when he passed away but I do know he was 28 years of age. If you have any information that you could share with me that would be great as I’m trying to put my family history together and it’s hard with missing information

Hello, I’m working on a heritage evaluation of the pony truss bridge that carries Black River Road over Black River at Victoria Falls in the Queen Elizabeth II Wildlands Provincial Park. I’m wondering if you have any information at all on this bridge, as it falls on the Dalton side of the (former) Dalton-Digby township boarder. With the bridges remote location and restrictions on access to archival materials during this pandemic it’s been difficult to gather background information on it. Any information or historical photos that you might have and are willing to pass along would be greatly appreciated! Or suggestions on who I might contact to gain more information on the bridge. Please let me know if you would like more information from me or would like to discuss further. I appreciate any help you can provide

I am trying to do genealogy on my family and I have traced my Cameron relatives back to your town of Ramara, Ontario. I’m stuck on my 3rd Great Grandfather, Hugh Cameron (abt 1793 – 10 July 1875) born in Scotland. Hugh Cameron shows up on the 1851, 1861 and 1871 census’ as living in Mara & Rama. I found a burial document that shows he was buried in Beaverton, Durham, Ontario in Union Cemetery. (can’t find this cemetery anywhere) Even if I do find the cemetery, I’m not sure if it will provide his full date of birth or specific birth place, but that is my goal.
It is with profound regret that we chronicle the demise on Sunday, November 2. 1924,
