Yes, in fact, Shirley has been a great help to me, finding the siblings of my 2nd great grandmother, Ellen Matilda (Glenn) West. However, the information on that page is old, and hasn't been updated since 2004. For instance, Ellen was born in Ireland and made the journey to Canada with her family, in 1853/4, so she couldn't have been born in Nova Scotia or New Brunswick two years before she arrived in Canada. I always check the update information on a page, and then the sources. Unfortunately, Shirley didn't list her sources, but this is her family as well as mine. I descend through Albert George West, while she descends through his sister, Nancy Hannah (West) Coneen.
