Besides researching my family (+ in-laws) I'm chief volunteer genealogist for the worldwide group Porteous Associates which collects trees & shares information for all Portei (misc. spellings). We don't sell, post or publish trees as privacy of living individuals respected, but exchange trees with interested family historians (via above hotmail account). If I manage the profile of a family member of yours which you'd like to have, do ask - glad to transfer! (I'm not a collector, better to have a relative manage.)

Mid-2013 Find-a-Grave updated geographical entries resulting in automated changes that 'fixed' locations by listing closest community - NOT always correct! Edits done for those I control, but apologize if some missed - if any spotted, use 'edit' option to send correction. For some strange reason, Find-a-grave has decided to divide Manitoba & Saskatchewan into "census districts" - whereas Vital Statistics & all other records in these provinces use Rural Municipalities (instead of counties) - VERY CONFUSING!

Also a warning to recheck links to memorials which aren't yours; make sure they're still there. 'Memorial not found' found as various entries/cemeteries have been deleted & reentered instead of edited? Dead links (excuse the pun) not helpful!
