I gave my fathers full name, place and year of birth, rank and number Royal Canadian Engineers. They pulled a list of 3138 Yanks and 22 Canadians. If I wanted the Canadian details, I had to pay. What a phoney lot they are.

I just put in my maiden name and I found my relative straight away and have printed out the three documents for my dad.
My relative enlisted 24th January 1915 and was discharged 4th December 1916
Cause of discharge 'Sickness'

I think why they wanted to charge me Lynnrose, was my dad was WWII and not WWI. I might try my Granddad, he was in the navy in WWI. He was 18 when WWI broke out and he had been at sea for 6 years. He started as a powder monkey. LOL..................

I finally got a 14 days trail which will get cancelled before I have to pay. I found out my granddad was a Yank born in Saginaw, Michigan and I thought he was Canadian. My grandmother was born in Hespeler, Ontario as was my dad. My dad has been buried in St Mary's Ontario since 1979, which I knew. My grandmother is buried in Niagra on the Lake and died in 1973. Dunno what happened to my granddad, he seems to have disappeared. I've got a half brother, whos still alive and they wont give information on live people. That SOB owes me half the family company, I know they own a knitting factory in Cambridge City Ontario. I might make a takeover bid one of these days.
