Surnames: BUXTON
My Grandmother, Agnes Edith Buxton b. 27/03/86 died in Calgary on Nov 28/59 and was buried in Whitecourt Cemetary.
Is there someone who would be willing to lookup the obituary in the newspaper at Whitecourt. Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you

Arthur John BUXTON, 1876 - 27 Jun 1978
both buried next to each other in the Blue Ridge cemetery at Blue Ridge.

Photographs of all headstones in Blue Ridge I didn't see these two on a quick look, but am sure if they are buried there the stones will be on this page.
