I know that there birthyears don't seem to jive but this is all I've got.I will persue the 1861 Census in Canada and will relay the info to you.Thank you and open that bulging file cabinet wide.Hopefully it has our little secret hidden in it.So far I've searched Ancestry.com and came up a blank and I've got to get back and search the LDS as it's been a long time since I looked in that spot.Dave Ellingham at
