Hi Pat , Just had a glass of wine -with you.
Re the marriage - RCMP records may be available - they may mention where John Storm PIPER - was stationed. There may also be information re a marriage - perhaps at Fort McLeod
You mention Jane was in Manitoba
http://vitalstats.gov.mb.ca/Query.phpI searched Manitoba Vital Records online - but failed to find information there - that does not mean that nothing exists - only that it may not yet be entered in the index
Date of Marriage - aprox date - might be determined - by the birth date of the first child
Each Province treats the information re Vital Statistics differently - some more open than others
with different time frames for information to be considered Public Record
Alberta appears to consider this information Private -only available to certain persons
British Columbia is pretty good - Births to 1903 [ it used to be In the 101st year - now in the 121st year because people are living longer - Marriage to 1936 - and deaths to 1991 - Full registrations can be viewed online - much better than the $50 fee - before.
