Hi David,
Thank you, and you did send me some info. We believe that Stuart who is listed in the
1881 Oxford, Ontario Census with Sandford (Sanford) Canfield is our Nolan. Sanford was
also known as Samuel. The Family History Centre has a birth record for Samuel Canfield,
but not Sanford. Maybe this is worth looking up? They lived in Cartwright, Manitoba
where my father was born. He could not read or write, as he worked on the farm and
didn't go to school. The family travelled between Cartwright and Pembina, Crystal,
North Dakota. Both Nolan and Sandford took out US Naturalization papers around 1912. I
don't think anyone else has connected or looked into the possibility of Sanford and
Samuel Canfield? I believe there is also land records for Samuel Canfield.
Please let me know if I can ever look something up at the Archives for you.
Roy was my father, who was listed with Nolan and Susan (Heatherington) in the 1911
Census. Susan was born in Parry Sound to James Heatherington (Hetherington) and Rachel
Gibson.

Hi,
I've changed my email address as I was having problems with hotmail.
We've been trying to contact Leigh Bellows who submitted a Canfield disc
47 to
familysearch.org however the contact information was no longer
current.
We are interested in the Sanford Canfield family. We believe that
Stuart Canfield listed with the family in the 1881 Ontario Census is our
Nolan Canfield as the birthdate is close. Also, Sanford was also listed as
Samuel in a US Census, with the rest of the family. I am the grandson of
Nolan Canfield. The family is listed in the 1911 Cenus in Manitoba. He had
a son James Sanford Canfield. Nolan and Sanford and took out
naturalization papers in North Dakota around 1912.
We found a death record for Stewart Canfield, June 3, 1909. Date of
birth Sept. 6, age is given as 86. The year of birth is missing (abt
1823). Place of death Beachville, East Oxford, Ontario. Occupation:
Farmer. Widower. Parents: Abram Canfield and Mary Burtch. Both of York
State. Cause of death old age.
Marriage: Valentine Canfield & Abigail Scofield, 4? April 1871,
Valentine - age 24. Born: East Oxford. Yeoman. Parents: Earl and
Charlotte Canfield.
I want to thank all of those who have helped me with my family.
Bert
