hi my gt uncle emigrated from wales to quebec in 1928, he ended up at powell street vancouver where he worked as a logger, he was 70 when he died, on his death certificate it said he was married to anne thompson. we have no other information as he didn,t keep in touch , the family has always wondered what happened to him, his niece is now 90 and i would love to be able to tell her any information that you lovely people could give me. her daughter has just found the death certificate on family search, so if anyone has any information ie headstone info or anything we would be very gratefull
with thanks
sue

Good Morning, Not researching the same name- just attempt to help - at the message boards - where possible.
Marriage information can be difficult to find -
Depending on the Province - information from Govt Vital Statistics Depts - information is restricted - In British Columbia - nothing available as Public Record - after 1931
If the couple are deceased - you will need proof - reg of death - photo of headstone etc or you have permission from them - you could write to Govt of BC Vital Statistics Dept - in Victoria -
One needs the date of marriage - The cost $50.
