Newfoundland's Grand Banks Message Board

Hello

I am a new visitor to the website and I was looking for some hints on how I might go about finding some information on my Newfoundland ancestors.

I am looking for a birth record on Hannah Strickland. She was the daughter of Robert Strickland (fish curer). Unfortunately, I have no idea where in Newfoundland she was born.

According to her Scottish Death Registration, Hannah was 80 years old when she died in 1861. This would mean that she was born about 1782.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Veronica
