Dear Al,
I saw your information on your website.  I am related to the Garveys and Burkes 
of Buckingham, Mayo.  I don't know much about these Canadian relatives and 
would like to find out more.  Is anyone listing the people of Buckingham and 
the cemeteries?  I have relatives here in the States who are curious as to where 
other relatives in Canada are baptized, married and buried.  Is any work being 
done on that?  I would be happy to volunteer for anything.

Thanks to Sean McConnery for the following: He has recorded and
photographed many of the cemeteries in western Quebec, 
from Maniwaki to Buckingham. His work is on his web site. (see below)

Hi Patti and Al
I do not have any specific information for you in regards to your query, 
but I do have pictures of the headstones in the Buckingham and Mayo cemeteries. 
The Mayo cemetery has not been catalogued yet but I do have the pictures. 
Visit my website for list of cemeteries that are catalogued and the ones still to come.

Hi, 
My name is Sabrina, and I am interning in Shawville Quebec, for the summer, 
at the CEDEC. Currently I am working on building a community profile of Mayo, 
and I was wondering if I could get some help on filling in the blanks. What I'm looking 
for is information on what can be found in your town (business, service, 
social group, ect...), anything at all that might give someone, who's never been 
there, an idea of what it's like. 
Your help will be greatly appreciated, and most helpful. To contact me you can 
either e-mail me at: sabby.itch@lycos.com 
Or you can call during the day at: (819) 647-2007 

Thanks in advance, Sabrina

Hello,
  I am Janis Garvey Oatmen.  
  My grandparents were Gerald Garvey and Gladys McDonell.  
  My father was born in Mayo and moved to Michigan, USA.  I do have 
  some family history information, and I'm very interested in learning 
  more and making contact with other family members.
