Newfoundland's Grand Banks Message Board

Hi: Both my maternal grandparents were born in Newfoundland and moved to the US in their early 20s. I've found a bunch of research on my grandmother Emma Beatrice Gosse, from the Vey family but am having difficulty finding the March relatives.

My grandfather was Charles Wesley March, born Sept 9, 1889 in Old Perlican, Trinity Bay. His parents were Mundon and Maria March.

Any help would be appreciated.

Hello,

Your ancestor’s parents were slightly different than your records. The following info will provide you good detail, as a bonus — their marriage even provides their father’s names!

Regards,
Carol
