I am looking for my ancestors and there is some confusion. It appears that several generations of the family were illiterate, and the spelling may have been changes from
Crete to
Crate (since I can find no listings for a
Crate family in Quebec). The
Crate family were from Ormstown, Chateauguay, Quebec, and my oldest known ancestor, Joseph Henry
Crate Sr. was born about 1860 (a guess based on the fact that his son, JHC Jr. was born in 1881). I have no wife, parents or other dates listed. can you help, or do you know someone who can?
