Here is what I know ...

I and my sister were adopted into the Northeast Family when my mother (Walker, Marion) married Kenneth Edward Northeast in the early 70's. Ken was born in 1942 to Edward "Ted" and Lois (Baschem) Northeast in White Rock BC. His siblings are James and Joy. The family lived at various times in White Rock, Burnaby and Westbank BC. At one point Ted owned a gas station with his brother in White Rock. I believe my dad's grandparents were Edward and Getrude Northeast. Granny lived until here 103rd year in White Rock, passing away in the 1990's. Ted's brother has three children Gary, Shelley and Tim. The only research I have done turned up an Emily Northeast who lived in what is now eastern Canada after the fall of New France. I also read a National Geographic article in the 70's about a George Northeast who ran a sheep station in the Northern Territory of Austalia.
