I am a retired online school teacher. I love family history. Since 2007, I have spent much of my time providing part-time support for the world's largest free family history site https://familysearch.org This is very rewarding. I have helped others with the Family Tree and related FamilySearch products.
In 2010-2018 I served in the Edmonton Riverbend Family History Centre. I have a FHC blog at Bill's Family History Center Blog For information the Latter-day Saints and family history click https://www.comeuntochrist.org/

Our Annual Ing Family Reunion was held on August 2-4 at the Funnell hall, north of Breton, Alberta. All four of the surviving children of Richard Ing and Louisa Wright were there, as well as descendants of all five of the five surviving lines. In the photo we see Charles, Myrtle, Dorothy, and Violet on the front steps of the Funnell hall.
Among those present were (I say that because I was only there on the Saturday, and I may have forgotten someone):
Marion's son Ernie and his wife Donna
Charlie's daughter Karen and her husband Darcy
Dorothy's children: Bill and wife Judy, Reg and wife Carol, Lloyd, Ed and wife Michelle, Judy; also grandchildren: Rob, Andrew (and family), James and new wife Karin; Brandon and his fiancee Tiffany; great grand-daughter Taryn
Vi's daughter Diane and Al
Myrtle's husband Evans, daughter Shirley and husband Dave
It was wonderful to get a photo of the four Ings. I wish that we had gotten a photo of us five Buchanan children too. It was really nice to gether again as family!
