Oh and Eringobragh1916, sorry but I've never heard anything about a Joseph/John Driscoll so I don't think I'll be requiring any information about him. Thanks for your efforts though! :-)

Researching:
Driscoll, Boyce, Whitehead, Joyce, Creamer, Swaddle in: London, Midlands, Durham, Norfolk, Suffolk and overseas.

[Note enumerator is John White - and they live 3 h/h's away from the (RC) Oblate Mission]

Aumond is just 170km N of Ottawa
Maniwaki is 20 kn S of Aumond.
I don't know exactly where Kensington was, but it must have been in the same general area of the Gatineau Valley.

Well, from the message received from Jim, looks like he has had contact from one of Rose's descendants in Canada throught the Ancestry tree I contacted for him. He sent a Pm with many thanks for all the help received and is looking forward to comparing notes with the tree owner - they both have lots of into to exchange. So I'll pass on his thanks guys!

Have also had a message from the Ancestry member thanking me for putting them in touch.

So,hopefully, another good ending! :-D
