The OCFA lists as well as the OGS cemetery listings, are only transcriptions
of gravestone inscriptions....NOT burial records. If your ancestor was too
poor to afford a headstone/gravestone, or if the said stone no longer
existed when OCFA & OGS compiled their records, you're out of luck, unless
indeed you do find actual burial records, which were few & far between
compared to christening & marriage records.
I would suggest contacting the Anglican Church Archives for burial records.

Colleen:
Did it occur to you to contact the LDS Family History folks?
Since they are the ones that produce and sell the CD's, I would
suspect they are the most familiar with any possible problems.
Of course I realize that reading the directions runs against the
grain .

I just purchased the 1881 Canadian census on CD-ROM from the LDS website. I
already have the 1881 British census on CD-ROM, which came with Viewer 2.0.
The Canadian census comes with Viewer 4.0, so I installed it accordingly, &
it worked. The census installed correctly as well. But when I tried to
actually view a census CD, I get "Viewer Error Run Time 7, Out of Memory"
everytime. Why is this?? I've uninstalled & reinstalled 3 times & it makes
no difference, & I have more than enough memory--192 MB of

Thanks to everyone who replied to my query about the technical difficulties
I was having with the 1881 Canadian census & Windows XP. Turns out there's
actually a file LDS has to send you if you have Windows XP so that Viewer
4.0 will work.......then you have to reinstall the actual census & it
installs a patch updating your viewer to XP compatibility......I had to do
it twice for it to "take," but everything's fine now.........
BTW, has anyone noticed any errors in the Canadian census?? I just looked

Hello List Members
I am looking for any connections to the Hinton family of E. Whitby/Oshawa. Father William was born in Ireland about 1815. He was Anglican and married Nancy Jenkins in 1841 in Leeds Grenville. Their son Hugh, born 1843, married Mary Reel of Port Hope. Other sons Robert, b. 1849 and James, b. 1853 were born in Quebec. Their daughters Elizabeth and Caroline were born in Ontario. Any connections?

Hello list,
I am looking for any connections to the Samuel H. Pearse (Pearce) family in Bowmanville. According to the 1871 census, Mr. Pearce was a chairmaker. He also employed his sister-in-law, Maria Morehead in the business as she is also listed in the 1871 census as a chairmaker.
Samuel and his wife Jane Ellacott and many of their family moved to Owen Sound in the early 1870s. The family were Disciples of Christ and came from Devon in 1849. Any information would be welcomed.

To All:- VERY SPECIAL REQUEST
Could we forget about the 1881 CD and things that will still be here
for just a few minutes and follow Gordon's request. Let's work
together, put our efforts into obtaining release of the 1911 census.
If WE do not try -- WE may never be able to peek at it!
I will even give free "look-overs" of any faxes, if requested.

Yesterday, I heard the very sad news that Cecil Collacott of Bradworthy,
Devon, had passed away in the Fall of last year.
I know that Cecil was a very dear friend to lots of people in Ontario,
especially Durham and Huron Counties.
When I did not receive a Christmas card from Cecil last year, I found this
most strange and it has been on my mind for months. I decided to write
the local newspaper and ask of his well being. Yesterday I received the
sad news.
Cecil will be very sadly missed, being the
