I've not been able to find anything on these people.

Has anyone spotted them in 1911?????

Pat- you wrote " Margaret was the sister of my grandfather Hugh who was killed in Tilloy France in 1918. While he was in France , her name changed on his documents as next of kin --from Margaret Mulheron to Mrs. W.M. Cartherny . I have no place or time of marriage . I do know however that W.M. Cartherny had an address of East Mountain Nova Scotia. Margaret was living in Saint John NewBrunswick at the time.*

Are there any specific addresses given?

Hi Maureen, nice to hear from someone who has an interest in this mystery. The only info on his papers say that she (Margaret) was listed as
Mrs. W.M. Cartherny
c/o Geo Thomson
RR#2
East Mountain
Nova Scotia
and that she also had an address at
2 Barker St
Saint John New Brunswick
she also had the initials after her name that look to be 'RNS'. I don`t know what this means --perhaps "Royal Nursing Sister " just a guess.
Also there is an address saying she can be contacted at C/O Hon. J.D.Hazen Hazen Castle Saint John N.B.
There is not much more info available --I simply cannot trace the name "Cartherny"---I hope you can help --thank you --Pat

More good solid info , thank you very much. I`ve always suspected that she may have gone to the states . There is so little info in Canada . Now I`ll start looking in American sites . Never was any doubt about James fate but I`ve often wondered about Margarets adventures and the thought that there may be relatives living nearby. Just have to keep on looking . Thanx much for all the help and time you have spent helping .-Pat

Hi Sylvia , yes the info from the Canadain great war project is definitely my grandfather, and the other info must be his sister Margaret. Too much of the info is the same to be a coincidence. I assume she returned to Canada but maybe she stayed and married in Maine . I have to do a lot of searching of American records now . But at least its a new direction to go in whereas before I was at a dead end. Now I know she was still called Mulheron up to 15 Apr 1915. All little pieces try to put together. Wish me luck .
And thanks much to Chris Ho for taking time to help me.

Pat, it did also say that brother James was with Margaret going out to Canada. I have been looking but must go now. I wish you luck.

Hi Chris , was Sylvia saying that both James and Maggie went to Maine or was she refering to both of them coming to Canada?

Not sure which Record Sylvia is looking at?...

pat Report 23 Apr 2014 18:05

Chris , me neither but she seems to think that James and Maggie were together "going out to Canada" as she put it --they left Scotland at different times so she must be refering to leaving Maine together I`m assuming . Maybe she found something we haven`t found . Another puzzle to crack .

Sylvia Report 23 Apr 2014 23:36

I haven't been on today.
What I was looking at was border crossings from Canada to the U.S .
I was wrong saying James was with Margaret. Having looked again just now. James is named as Margarets relative.
Sorry to mislead you, it was a very late night/early morning when I looked this up.
