This is a snapshot of my Family Tree
My father was Charles Haydon and my mother was Thelma Fleming. They were married in Carleton Ontario Canada on September 1st 1921.
My husband was William McCallum and we were married on July 17th 1948.
My mother-in-law told me many years ago that her mother’s maiden name was Weber.
While searching on the ancestry website we were able to trace back through Census, Birth, Marriage & Death certificates to reveal much more of the past and about her family.
Further investigation revealed that the name “Weber” the German version translates into “Weaver” the English version.
I was very confused in my research concerning these two names until my granddaughter enlightened me on this fact.
The Christian names of my mother-in-law’s siblings had me confused as well until another member on the Ancestry website had their German names clarified with their English names.
So now I can carry on and delve deeper into the past history of this part of my late husband’s family and carry on also with delving back into mine.
