The following letter has been passed oh to The Sentinel by village clerk A. E. Herbert. R.1, Box 6, Fort Towson, Oklahoma, April 23,1975. To the County Clerk of Walkerton, Bruce County, Ontario, Canada. I am searching for information on the geneology 'of my mother's family. . Her name was Margaret Annie Kirscher,' She was the oldest daughter (and child) of Barbara La ' Porte and John Kirscher. She was born August 23, 1880. She had two brothers and one sister. Frank and Emma were twins, and the youngest child was Alex. The last report of Alex he still lived at Lucknow, Canada. Can you give me any information on the La Portes or the Kirschers? Or can you give • me any leads on how I might obtain information on these two families? Can you send• me addresses of any La Fortes or Kirscher. who live in Bruce County? " • I would truly appreciate any help you can give 'me. Joseph Kipling La Porte ,was born November 2, 1869 in Form- osa, Canada in Bruce Cdunty. I have reason to believe he was a younger 'brother of Barbara La Porte. I have been under the impression that John Kirscher may have been born near Lucknow. I would welcome any informa- tion you could send me on these families.
