Both he and Marie lived in Buckingham, Que. at the time of their marriage. She was born in Pembroke ON. They later settled in Blind River, ON

Could use some help with a brick wall. I am trying to find information about the parents of Louisa Sworth. Married to William Thompson in 1879. Their marriage cert shows her parents as John and Meria Sworth. The 1881 census indicates that she was born in Elizabethtown, ON., with a ethnic origin as German. I have seen the last name spelt as Swarth, however the majority of documents show it as Sworth. I have not been able to find anything on her parents. There is a John and Mary Swarth in 1880 USA census. Any ideas or leads would be appreciated.

Have researched my family - Achin/Achim - in Quebec. Anyone interested in the results?

The Nov/Dec 2010 issue of FAMILY CHRONICLE has articles on the Library & Archives Canada in Ottawa, Kirk Sessions of the Church of Scotland, Researching your Ancestors’ Houses, Dissertations & Theses as Genealogical Sources, and analyzing conflicting data to name a few.

Is there anyone in the Montreal area who would be available to do an obituary look up for me in the archives of the Montreal Gazette?

I found it here:

Great resource for "New Brunswick vital statistics from newspapers".

Concerning death of John Benner:
http://books.google.com/books?ei=g2-oTLzGMYOBlAe17qCdDQ&ct=resu...
New Brunswick vital statistics from newspapers, Volumes 26-28
"d. Dunsinane Mill, Sussex, Sunday 20th inst., John Benner, age 50, formerly of Dennisville, Maine." [Note: Probably Denneysville, Washington Co, Maine]

This was a "snippet view" therefore I could not read to find out Month and Year of death.

Might someone have access to "New Brunswick vital statistics from newspapers, Volumes 26-28" that would share with me the month and year of his death.

Ps
Is anyone farmiliar with "Dunsinane Mill" (A town? A workplace?)

Wow! Michelle....Thank yoy soooo much!
Seeing the Sears name there is very meaningful....you have no idea. I'm hopeing that it turns out that Margaret is Elizabeth Benner's mother. The others listed are probably Elizabeth's children. Again, I thank you very much.
Kind regards, Roz Edson
