Hi Chris , thanks for your reply on Ancestry .com site. I am not a member on there but a friend kindly allowed me to check things out on her subscription for this week. I am the granddaughter of Tom's brother William Clements/Emma Myrer. This side of the family knew Uncle Tom. He came back to see the family a few times to Halifax, NS before he died in 1948 in Alaska. He had left Nfld. as did most of his brothers and went to the USA where he spent most of his life mining gold. My mother had a ring made from a gold nugget he gave her. It ( the chunk of gold) is the size of a kidney bean! He never married after he left Nfld, and as far as we know there are no children. The family lore was that he married Mary Anne Gosse who was RC and he was Church of England. He was out to sea when she died shortly after they married and when he came home she had been buried in the RC cemetary in Torbay or Pouch Cove. He was NOT happy about this and when he threatened to " re bury " her in the Cof E Cemetary it caused quite the scene...and he left Nfld ( or was run out ) never to go back. My grandfather William and his other brothers came to Halifax where they all worked for the Telephone Company. All of these brothers died in Halifax as did their sister Sophia. We have always wondered about the Morry side of the family and would appreciate any info you could send our way on that family. Are you in Newfoundland? How do you connect to the Clements side? Hope to hear from you, Cheers,Verna Peters
