I recently came upon a obituary for Alexander Lyons in my families possession and thought it might be of interest.

Alexander Lyons

Born at Mapleton, Mr. Lyons , had lived all his life in the district. Until his illness, he had been an engineer at the Manitoba Rolling Mills for about 30 years, Previous to that he was a fireman, and later an engineer on government dredges on Lake Winnipeg.

Lianne – You simply click your mouse on the links in the narrative (underlined in red), particularly this one:
FORUM FOR DISCUSSING THE FAMILY OF ALEXANDER LYONS
Then you post your comments just as you did here. When you do reply there, we’d love to know more about yourself and your parents. Where do they fit into the lineage?
Is KUPCHIK your maiden name or your married name?
