Hi, Just a thought
Have you searched Provincial Archive of BC Vital Events Index -online
Marriage 1859 -1934 Birth 1872-1903 Death 1872-1989

There are other YEAGER surnames in locations you have mentioned - Perhaps connected to your research.

Cheers, Stella

Stella,

Thanks for your assistance, and yes I have looked at the Provincial Archive of BC Vital Events Index -online
Marriage 1859 -1934 Birth 1872-1903 Death 1872-1989, which has led me to my obit request.

I am particularly interested in Edward's mother Mary Louise Yeager (DAY) obituary, she died 16 Feb 1940 Pouce Coupe, British Columbia, Canada and is interred in either the Dawson Creek Pioneer Cemetery or the Rolla Community Cemetery (two entries on the BC Vital Index).

Thanks

I can't help you out with the obituary for Mary Louise but this index shows her buried in the Dawson Creek Pioneer Cemetery.

And this photo comes from the Rolla Cemetery for Jacob Yaeger
