Subject: [ROOTS-L] re: 1911 Canadian Census help

Bryan

Scanned images of Canadian 1901, 1906 and 1911 Censuses are available 
without charge through the Canadian Genealogy Centre of Library and Archives 
Canada at the following URL.

http://www.collectionscanada.ca/genealogy/index-e.html

Click on the link for 'Databases' to access the Census records and more.

Unfortunately LAC does not have the online Censuses indexed by surname --  
only by location.

Fortunately, volunteers at Automated Genealogy have been indexing these 
Censuses by surname.  While the 1911 index is still very much a work in 
progress, your Joshua GREAVES appears in the index for Saskatchewan / 
Battleford / 48  North Battleford / page 11 - line 16.  With this 
information you can access and download the scanned image available from the 
LAC website.  Joshua is shown as HEAD of the household with a  Phillip 
RICHARD listed as a 'helper'.

The Automated Genealogy index shows a Harriet READ on the 1911 Census at 
Saskatchewan / Battleford / 48 North Battleford / page 17 - line 3.  The 
transcriber of the index has obviously incorrectly indicated she is a 'Son' 
of Minnie READ who is the HEAD of the household.  With the ages shown for 
both, it might be presumed that Minnie is likely a sister of Harriet.

Hope this has helped.

Subject: Ancestry 1911 Canadian census help

Hi to all.

Can anyone on the list please help with an Ancestry image from the 1911 
Canadian census for a Joshua Hartley GREAVES born in Castleford, Yorkshire, 
England ca 1874 or for a Harriet Edith READ also born in England ca 1882 
both would be living in Saskachewan.

Many Thanks
Bryan in Durban, South Africa
