Does anyone have the transcription of the Beechmount Cemetery, Edmonton, AB?

I am trying to find out if the following fellow is the person I am seeking but his birth date nor age is shown on this record, so I cannot tell:

KEMP HERBERT died 03/21/1939 BEECHMOUNT Cemetery, Edmonton, Alberta, Block 0167, Plot 0005

The man I am looking for was Herbert A. Kemp born abt 1866-1867.

Thanks,
Cheryl

several on line trees say he died in Kirkland WA in 1935 but no one has a source.

they moved back and forth from the US several times according to Arthurs border crossing

Mrs Herbert A Kemp is on the voters list in Edmonton as a widow in 1940

Perfect, thanks. I did find a cross border manifest dated 1937 so I knew he didn't die in 1935. Do you have a firm birth date for him? All I have is the census that says Sep 1866? Are you related?

I have Herbert's ancestry back to about 1723. Who did his grandson, William Arthur Kemp, marry (i.e. the son of William Hall Kemp)? I have his birth and death date and info up to the 1940 census but nothing more on him..

Yes, I was referring to William Arthur Kemp 1924-2004. I do know that Miscella married William Gordon Simpson. I will look for the tree you mention. Thanks.
