Thanks for that I have downloaded Mr Sid and an viewing the 1901 Census but
I am having a problem working out how it works.

I did a search on Battleford and got 5 hits and they sound like the right
thing but when I view the pages I cant find the surnames - am I missing
something.

There are 2 different census schedules there for Battleford and I suspect that
you aren't looking at the "Schedule 1". Those can be viewed without the MrSid
plugin I note and perhaps preferably.

Canada -
can they contact me directly please?

I have found that an aunts ggrandfather was in the NWMP and so were his 5
sons. He was killed at Cut Knife Hill and I am looking for what is
available on the net on their records.

I put together a tree for her just quickly and have added 1881 census
info
but would like to pad it out a bit if you can access NWMP records.

The family intermarried with Metis(?) and I am interested in chasing up
what
is available about them.
