Re: Harold Thomas Blenkhorn

Hi Dave,

Thanks. Here is a little more background which may explain why I asked the
question.

Over 3 years ago I was contacted by a Robert MOSHER in Ontario
who had been browsing my genealogy web pages. He has a
Damaris T. BLENKHORN in his line, and I just found very recently
that there was a Damaris Tamson BLENKHORN (1856 - 1940) from
Advocate; she was married to James Ed. Morris and they are
buried in Advocate cemetery. The Advocate Damaris Blenkhorn was
d/o John Blenkhorn (1802 -1867) and Mary Hazel.

I think Robert Mosher's Damaris Blenkhorn was the d/o John
Albert Blenkhorn and Mary Rafuse. This Damaris Blenkhorn was b.
1869 and d. 13 Nov 1958 in Saint John.

So clearly the two Damaris Blenkhorn women are different individuals but I
thought it was a somewhat interesting coincidence.
