Post subject:  PTE Joshua C Ryan & Sarah Ryan (nee Day) / Bell Island

Good Morning from Ontario,

I am new to this forum. Please accept my apologies in advance for putting many questions in one post.

I am looking for information on my great-grandparents, Private Joshua C. Ryan who was a miner for 40 years on Bell Island and his wife Sarah Ryan (nee Day). They had several sons and one daughter. They were involved in the Salvation Army church and buried on Bell Island.

I cannot find any pictures of Sarah Ryan and I'm wondering if anyone might be able to point me in a direction to look? Would there be Salvation Army church photos? Is there a Bell Island specific thread I should post too? Is there a place where photos of the miners can be found?

Sarah's line is well researched. Joshua's line is confusing and traces back to Pilley's Island where there are a few Ryan lines. Joshua's father's name is William and his mother Naomi. I believe Naomi's maiden name to be Smith. I am not sure if William married twice.

Thank you dearly for any guidance/leads you might have.

J. Ryan
