Dear JGenners,
I am wondering if anyone has succeeded in obtaining death certificates for people who died while in quarantine in Grosse Isle, Quebec. Here is link to a website with some information but records for deaths are only mentioned as in death registers. http://www.bac-lac.gc.ca/eng/discover/immigration/immigration-records/immigrants-grosse-ile-1832-1937/Pages/immigrants-grosse-ile.aspx#e [MOD. NOTE: shortened URL - http://goo.gl/k6zUIK ] Quoting >from above * Burials recorded at the Grosse Ile Quarantine Station. * Information about 4,871 people who were buried at Grosse Ile between 1832 and 1937. * Deaths that occurred at sea. * Information on 4,936 people who died on ships at sea, on the St. Lawrence River or on quarantined ships at Grosse Ile, >from 1832 to 1922. * Hospital Registers. * Information on 12,196 people who were treated at the Grosse Ile hospitals between 1832 and 1921. The name I am looking for is Pesie FURMAN who died April 30, 1906 on the SS Dominion sailing >from Liverpool with her mother Perle FURMAN and 3 siblings and a cousin. The names in the accompanying database are Pello FORMAN etal. But this database is for those who were actually quarantined at Grosse Isle and Pesie died so is not included. The passenger manifest has accounted for all passengers in 1st, 2nd and 3rd class and there are no deaths at sea. Since the names are misspelled I searched for all the people on the SS Dominion but Pesie does not appear. Thank you. Barry BROUDE Minneapolis, Minnesota
