We are two professors – Leighann Neilson and Del Muise -- from Carleton University in Ottawa, Ontario who are conducting research on family history. We are not affiliated with any of the commercial genealogy databases or software providers. We are researchers and family historians ourselves, who want to learn more about the surge of interest in family history. In order for our research to accurately capture what's happening in family history in Canada today, we need the participation of as many family historians as possible.
My researh about my great great grandfather Colonel Aubry Woolls, who was sent over to Quebec by Queen Victoria to settle the Finian Raids on the Quebec/Vermont border indicates that a covered bridge was named after him in the Eastern Townships.
I have visited his grave and his homestead near Stanstead in the late '80s, but have failed to find the bridge!
