Hi Laurie,

I have Michael Legrow (11 May 1859-13 Nov 1937) and Georgina Thistle (b. 26 Aug 1866). According to information I have, Michael's parents were Adam Legrow (b. abt 1820) and Mary Thistle (b. bapt. 15 Jun 1817). Mary's parents were Henry Thistle and Mary ??. Mary's sister, Martha, is an ancestor of mine. Most of my Thistle information came from archives and other people's websites. I am not saying its gospel but its information that I came across and used.


Roger

LAURIE ... MY GRANDFATHER WAS JOE'S BROTHER, WILLIAM. HE MARRIED FLOSS HOLLETT FROM POUCH COVE, NFLD & HAD MY MOM & UNCLE WALLY. AFTER MOVING TO MONTREAL WITH A SHORT STAY IN MASSACHUSETTS, FLOSS LEFT GRAMPS & THE KIDS. MOM HAD 6 OF US IN MONTREAL & TRAIL, BC. SHE DIED AT 42 WHEN THE KIDS WERE 2-22. HER GRAN RACHEL NOSEWORTHY THISTLE CAME FROM NFLD TO HELP GRAMPS (HER HUSBAND, JOSEPH DIED A WEEK BEFORE MY MOM WAS BORN). I HAVE RACHEL'S PARENTS AS: WILLIAM NOSEWORTHY ( "CAMMY BILL") & MARIA. RACHEL HAD 2 BROTHERS GEORGE & ALLEN. I'M STILL WORKING ON THEM. I MET ALLEN'S GRAND DAUGHTER, GWEN HUDSON, IN 2007 WHEN I WAS IN POUCH COVE. I HAVE MY G/GRANDAD JOSEPH THISTLE'S PARENTS DOWN AS THOMAS THISTLE (BORN 1827) & ELLEN SULLIVAN (BORN 1830 POUCH COVE). THEY MARRIED IN 1852 IN POUCH COVE. THOMAS HAD 5 SIBLINGS. HIS PARENTS WERE WILLIAM THISTLE FROM MULLEY'S COVE (BORN 1788) & ABIGAIL FROM POUCH COVE (BORN 1792).

AS WITH ALL GENEALOGY, THERE IS ALWAYS A POSSIBILITY OF ERROR. I HAVE NOT WORKED ON THIS BIT OF FAMILY IN A LONG TIME AS I RESEARCH 4 DIFFERENT FAMILIES WHEN TIME PERMITS.
I HAVE RECENTLY CONNECTED WITH ANOTHER OF YOUR DAD'S BROTHER'S: GORDON CHARLES FAMILY IN MASSACHUSETTS. GORDON CHARLES HAD MURIEL & ALEX & GORDON LESTER WHO HAD PAM WHO HAD JAY & KAMA .......... I'M WAITING ON SOME POSSIBLE INFO FROM KAMA'S UNCLE ALEX'S FAMILY REGUARDING RACHEL NOSEWORTHY THISTLE.
THINGS SOMETIMES GET VERY CONVOLUTED WHEN TRACING EACH BRANCH !!

RACHEL & JOSEPH HAD 11 KIDS: EDITH MURIEL, WILLIAM, ALBERT, JOSEPH, CHESLEY, ALEX, GORDON CHARLES, DORIS, MAY, JENNIE, GERTRUDE. AND I JUST RAN ACROSS ANOTHER POSSIBLE DAUGHTER ...... BEATRICE MARY. BUT I'M NOT POSITIVE ABOUT HER, YET. SHE SHOWED UP IN A TIMELINE FOR JENNIE. BUT I HAD NEVER HEARD OF HER BEFORE & HER NAME IS VERY CLOSE TO ANOTHER SIBLING .......... BRIDGET MAY. SO MAYBE SOME CONFUSION ? I HAVE FOUND ALL 11 BIRTH REGISTRIES EXCEPT BEATRICE MARY, TOO.

HOPE THIS REACHES YOU SINCE IT'S BEEN A VERY LONG TIME SINCE YOU POSTED.
FINGERS CROSSED ........ TONI
