Free public index of Manitoba marriage registrations more than 80 years old. Returns both parties' surnames and given names, date, place and registration number. Places are recorded as the Rural Municipality, not the town.
Groom KEYES, JAMES HENRY; bride CONSTABLE, SARAH; married 15/09/1885; WINNIPEG; registration 1885,001195
Confirms the tree's marriage of James Henry Keys and Sarah Constable, 15 Sep 1885 at Winnipeg, exactly. Note the registrar spelled the surname KEYES where the tree has Keys - the two spellings are used interchangeably for this one family.
Eight Keyes births registered in the R.M. of Turtle Mountain, Manitoba, 1886-1901: John Henry 1886 (1886,004076), Phoebe Lilian 1888 (1888,004936), Mary Ann 1890 (1890,003819), Joseph Biamond 1892 (1892,003819), Charles Wesley 1894 (1894,005010), George Arthur 1896 (1896,003092), Melton Robert 1898 (1898,001619), Sidney Russell 1900 (1901,006517)
No Manitoba marriage registration was found for William John Keys and Frances Humphreys - the tree records the marriage as taking place in Canada with no date, and it likely preceded Manitoba registration or occurred in Ontario. This citation evidences the couple's issue and their residence in the R.M. of Turtle Mountain across 1886-1901, not the marriage itself.
Confirms date, place and both parties for Phoebe Lillian Keyes and Noble Edmond Glass. The registrar gives the bride's names in the order Lillian Phoebe and the groom's middle name as Edmund.
Groom KEYES, JOSEPH BEAMOND; bride HILL, IVA DOROTHY; married 04/08/1920; BOISSEVAIN; registration 1920,042273
Confirms date, place and both parties. The registration gives the bride as IVA Dorothy Hill; the tree has Ida Dorothy Hill. Iva is added as a name variant rather than replacing the primary name, since the tree's Ida may rest on other evidence.
KEYES, JOSEPH BIAMOND; born 28/08/1892; R.M. OF TURTLE MOUNTAIN; male; registration 1892,003819
Date matches exactly. The registrar wrote the middle name as BIAMOND; the tree has Beaumond, which is the mother's mother's surname (Mary Ann Beaumond) and is the better reading.
KEYES, MILTON ROBERT; date of death 04/06/1943; age 44 years; male; place of death RM KILLARNEY; registration number 1943,024344
Age 44 in 1943 matches Milton Robert Keyes b. 1898 in the R.M. of Turtle Mountain. Death date was previously blank. Place recorded to Killarney, the town of the R.M. of Killarney.
KEYES, MELTON ROBERT; born 20/10/1898; R.M. OF TURTLE MOUNTAIN; male; registration 1898,001619
DISCREPANCY: the registration gives 20 October 1898, the tree 28 October 1898. Given name indexed as MELTON for Milton. The tree date is left unchanged - a single index transcription is not enough to overturn it; the registration image would settle it.
KEYES, EDITH ANGELIN; date of death 30/06/1954; age 66 years; female; place of death WINNIPEG; registration number 1954,004372
Age 66 in 1954 gives a birth about 1888, matching Edith Angieline Weatherby b. 6 Feb 1888, who married John Henry Keyes at Winnipeg on 12 Oct 1918 (Manitoba marriage reg. 1918,057075). Identification rests on married surname, given names, age and city, not on a stated parentage - hence quality 2.
KEYES, IVA BERYL; born 06/05/1921; BOISSEVAIN; female; registration 1921,017548
The birth itself is proved by the registration. The PARENTAGE is inferred, not proved: the index names no parents, but the given name Iva and the place Boissevain point to Joseph Beaumond Keyes and Iva Dorothy Hill, who married at Boissevain on 4 Aug 1920 (marriage reg. 1920,042273), nine months earlier. Hence quality 2.
