    A good explanation of how history affects the places our ancestors worshipped and shapes the choices available today. Add in the multicultural nature of Canada and we have many churches that are similar in their desire for God but come from different historical paths.

    I use Google Earth for my genealogy. I like the fact that I can have a folder for each branch of my family and subfolders for different eras (Canada, before Canada, etc.) and each grandparent can have a different colour pin if I want. In Google Earth it's easy to zoom from one place to another. And I have found a website that even helps you get the details for farmland that you can store in Google Earth. I haven't mastered layering on old maps.

I’ve been to Scotland twice in my life and I am 57 % Scottish 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 I’m from Ireland and I’m 26 % Irish 😂I’ve 800 relatives in Canada according to ancestry DNA. My parents listened to Canadian folk rockers, The Band. Their song Acadian Driftwood literally tells the story of one branch of our family. Before knowing this I had a big fascination with Acadia. Since then I’ve discovered my family’s long standing presence in Acadia/ Nova Scotia and in one family tree I’ve discovered my surname as Marcil, Marcel and lastly Marshall. I don’t know if this was done to hide French ancestry. Do you know of any incidents where names were changed to the French sounding equivalent to avoid persecution?

    • @HowWeGotHere
      @HowWeGotHere Před 20 dny

      @@HowWeGotHere it’s fascinating, I’ve been deep diving into my genealogy since getting my results in February. My ancestors from Maine used to nip across to Canada during prohibition (obviously the Irish family members 🤣) My grandfather was raised in Canada and when my grandmother divorced him (he loved women 😉) he moved from Manchester England right back to Canada! He visited us twice when I was a boy but there’s very little information on him when I search him up lol! If ever there was a way to break this brick wall I will do it!

      @@HowWeGotHere apparently my paternal line has been in Canada since at least my 3rd great grandfather. My great grandfather was born in Belfast in 1891 so my great great grandfather didn’t emigrate to Canada, he was born and died in Belfast, he died at 80 outliving 5 of his 6 children. My great grandfather must have moved to Ottawa after he saw service in the Great War as he fought with British in France. After that He and my great grandmother went to Canada near both their families. My great grandfather went back and forth from Ireland and again fought for the British in WW2 as a gunner aged 53. He was killed in France in September 44, and his remains were sent back to Belfast for burial. He lost at least two brothers in the Great War and he was shot 3 times in France! He was very lucky until he came back to France to be a gunner at 53! His son was born in Dublin North in 1926 and then the family went back to Canada. Because my grandfather was raised in Canada he was apparently in the RCAF but can’t find any records! My dad reckoned he was a Squadron Leader at 19, right before the end of WW2. He was stationed near Manchester England where he met and married my grandmother.
