Descendant note:
My,father DOB 07-28-1896 was born in Clarkes Harbour Nova Scotia.
I have reason to believe his real name
was Ralph Thomas. However he took his uncles name Percy Ralph
Kenney when he went to live with his sister and her
husband in 1910/11 in Alberta Ca. His sister and husband returned
to NS and remained . Their name was Earle Bigelow and
Violet Bigelow they spent many years at the Masonic nursing home
in I believe Windsor NS. They had 2 children named
Vernon and Ruth.Vernon married and moved to Vancover,Ruth remained
and married a gentleman who was a farmer and
was a MP for a number of years Prior to moving to the Masonic I believe
Earle and Violet lived in Sheffield or Sheffield Hills
NS unfortunatly that is all the information I have. Regards , Ray
