Re: WILLIAM ROBERT SMITH (1797-1869)

I've been told (scolded) a number of times by old genealogists that there is no supporting material that shows William Robert Smith's father's middle name was "Hart". I must admit I've never found any, so I've removed it from my tree. One genealogist also said that William Robert Smith pro...

Re: JOHN INKSTER (1799-1874)

Re: JOSEPH MONKMAN JR (1836-1910) - Canadian Agent

What are the sources that say Joseph Monkman 1810-1899 was the Canadian Agent in 1870 Rebellion? The Manitoba Historical Society has listed this Joseph Monkman (1836-1910) as a Memorable Manitoban for his involvement in the 1870 Rebellion, not his father Joseph Monkman 1810-1899. I suspect it is far...
