Subject: [CAN-SASKATCHEWAN] Leon & Margaret (Kiester) Adams


> Hello,
>
> I am trying to trace a collateral line, and would be very interested in
> hearing from anyone else who is researching them. Leon Ervin Adams was
> born on 5 November 1900 to James and Clara (Edwards) Adams in Garden City,
> Clark County, South Dakota, USA. James had been born in Ontario to
> English parents and Clara had been born in Illinois, USA.
>
> On 21 February 1922 in Clark, Clark County, Southa Dakota, USA, Leon
> married Margaret Elenora Kiester, who had been born on 2 April 1903 in
> Clark County, South Dakota, USA to George and Elizabeth (Herbison) Kiester
> (her parents' names are only from the South Dakota birth index and thus
> may be misspelled).
>
> On 12 April 1923, Leon and Margaret crossed into Canada at North Portal,
> Saskatchewan. They listed their destination as Uncle Robert Hincherson of
> Riverhurst. I have not yet determined the connection between them and
> Robert. I have also not determined what happened to them after they moved
> to Saskatchewan. It appears from some information posted online by other
> researchers that one or two of Leon's younger siblings, Laura/Lora (b. c.
> 1915) and possibly Kenneth (b. c. 1918) came to live with them when their
> mother died and that Laura eventually married a man named Cecil Stockings.
> But I have not yet found any Saskatchewan records for them, and so far I
> have not heard back from anyone I've contacted directly about postings on
> the family.
>
> I would be very interested in hearing from anyone who is researching these
> folks and/or knew them/relatives. I am a descendant of one of their
> father James Adams's siblings.
