Hello everyone in beautiful Newfoudland
My name is Colleen Kane and I live in beautiful British Columbia,however, I grew up in Cape Breton.
My husband and I have a trip planned for Cape Breton in Aug. it's a surprise 80th birthday for my mother. My mother was adopted by Laura cosgrove and her husband Harold Murray. Laura's father was Nicholas Cosgrove and he was a lighthouse keeper in Placentia Bay. He died in 1913.Laura had a brother Charlie who moved to Halifax. We would like to suprise Ma by bringing her to Newfoundland(she has never been there) and hopefully introduce her to some of the decendents of the loving family who adopted not only her,also 2 other children as well.
We hope to spend a few days exploring the area and then drive over to lawn and visit a very good friend there.
Please if you have any ideas that could possibly help us in our quest to finish Ma's bucket list,we would be forever grateful.
Ma has no idea of the party or of this, it was her greatest joy when she found her real mother living in the next town,they had a wonderful relationship right up to the end.
