Seeking information about my father who was at the Indian Head orphanage from 1932 to approx. 1940? He and his older brother were boarded there after their mother died in childbirth. His name is Melvin Stanley Wells, his brother's name is Edward Wells (born 1926, I think). Any information would be welcome, thank you

I am researching my ancestors who emigrated to Canada in the 19th century. My Mother's Uncle David McComb left Donemana, Co. Tyrone in the 1860s and settled in the Arnprior area of Ontario. My Father's Uncle, David Huston or Houston emigrated in 1883 and settled in Lucknow, Ontario, as did his Brother Robert who left Ireland in 1886. I would be most grateful if those with Lodge records from these areas could check if any of the above or their offsprings were in the Orange Order. Their siblings who stayed in Ireland were members and perhaps they were before they emigrated. Thank you in anticipation of a reply from someone. Best wishes and fraternal greetings from Londonderry, Northern Ireland.

I received a jewel in a leather case that is engraved on the Bar with the letters P.W.M. and on the back 'Presented to Susan Gallagher L.O.B.A. 104 and behind the cross, anchor and bible is the date Dec. 19, 62 . I believe this is from the Orange Lodge, in Victoria which may have closed now so would appreciate you advice and assistance from you as to your policy and procedure regarding the jewel's return. She passed away. Looking forward to hearing from you.
Trying to find info on an ancestry who was a member of the Loyal Orange Lodge in Manitoba back in the late 1800's. His name is William Wigmore. He lived in Portage la Prairie, Minnedosa and Neepawa. An old newspaper dated Dec. 6, 1887 has an ad about a meeting of the L.O.L. No. 1505 signed: By order; W. Wigmore.
Also is there anyone out there who could find me a picture of William Wigmore,
Thank you
Pat Ross
