Homer Ames lived in Kenora with his first wife Betty and children and they went their separate ways; Betty to Thunder Bay and Homer to Winnipeg (late in his life I think) and he met Helen and she became his new partner. We never met her and she knew very little about Homer's family I guess so the obit was incomplete. There were six boys in Annie and Wellington's family and four girls . The boys are Carmen, Homer, Milton, Delbert, Russell (the only one still living) and Gerald. The girls were Myrtle, Mary, Jean and Gertrude. I have to find out if there was one that died young.. I have just purchased a new computer and am on cable rather than the telepone line and can receive attachments . However I do have trouble retrieving them if I have to do more than just click on them. I also haven't learned how to use my burner so I can store this info on a disc and I have to learn how to file so I don't have buried files that I can't retrieve . If you need dates of births and deaths I can give them to you probably through some local phone calls. My dad was born In 1909 and died in 1994. Happy Easter.
