Biography
DOB from census data.
In the Manse, New Carlisle, on August 30th 1907 George Alvin Astels, bachelor son of James Thomas Astels farmer of New Carlisle and his wife Sarah Jane Garrett, married Laura Alberta Smith, spinster daughter of Andrew Smith farmer of Shigawake and his wife Jane Astels. Witnesses James Thompson and Ida Duby.[1]
John Alexander Thompson, widower, railroad (worker) married Laura Alberta Smith, widow of Alvin Astles, September 18th 1923 in the Church of England in New carlisle.[2]
DOD from unsourced family tree. She would have been 103 years old if the DOD is correct. Needs research.
Can be found in the following Censuses of Canada:
- 1921 Page 26, Line 9. New Carlisle, Cox Township, Bonaventure, Québec.[3]
Alvin and Alberta are in the US in 1910 with two daughters. He is listed as having immigrated in 1896 and his family in 1910. He is enumerated in New Carlisle in 1901 so must have been traveling back and forth for work. I have found no children born in the US, it seems he returned to New Carlisle shortly after the 1910 census and after the 1911 census of Canada as he does not appear to be enumerated.
Census of US:
- 1910 Sheet 4B, Line 84. ED 39, Cloquet Ward 3, Carlton, Minnesota.[4]
