John: Try looking up Gallant names in the phone book - www.canada411.com - using Halfax and Ketch Harbour, Nova Scotia. The people living nearest to your ancestors would have phone numbers starting with 475-, 477-, 479-, or 868-. There are not many, so try calling a few (NS time is ONE HOUR LATER than US Eastern time). Why not post this same message on the NS site - www.nsonline.com/forums/forum1.cgi - they have lots of good Q's and A's. I think there are already postings about GALLANT families there which you might want to read. Other NS info sources are: - http://www.nsarm.ednet.ns.ca/ - Public Archives of Nova Scotia - Halifax - Fax: (902) 424-0628 GOVT NS (VITAL STATISTICS) - www.gov.ns.ca/bacs/vstat/ - Births/Deaths “Genealogical Research in Nova Scotia” by Terrance Punch - ISBN 1-55109-235-2 The Genealogical Association of Nova Scotia (GANS) - Leland Harvie, newsletter editor - 902-443-9107, Halifax - 1,500 members - www.chebucto.ns.ca/Recreation/GANS/index.html - the main “chebucto” menu has LINKS to many interesting sites. And Prince Edward Island, "home of Gallants": Prince Edward Island (PEI) Register Guest Book (Dave Hunter): Sandra Hume - PEI - ash.family@pei.sympatico.ca - Kathy Mackinnon (March 18, 1999) - PEI - kmackinnon@auracom.com - And of course the bigger sites, such as: MORMON CHURCH (Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints) - http://www.familysearch.org/ - Family Search Internet Genealogy Service - (you will need lots of patience to access this, and then you may only get 15 minutes to look around ! Wealth of knowledge will be worth it ! 400-600 MILLION names going back to year 1500 !) - http://www.genealogy.com/genealogy/links/index.html - directory of genealogy sites on the Internet, featuring 71,829 categorized and cross-indexed links with full descriptions, brought to you by genealogy.com and Helm's Genealogy Toolbox. 13,804 new links since 4/28/99.
