Thank you very much, Stella

however, I already have the registrations that you mention. Apparantly, my only chance to get any further is to order a copy of the death certificate of Karen Hjorth, who was the longest living, and thereby learn about informants, if any. I can order per ordinary mail (filled in form and a check - not visa)addressed to Vital Statistics Agency ...

The Filmed Registration can be viewed at NO COST at the provincial Archive in Victoria BC -

Also at some LDS Family History Centres

Hi! Thanks, but I'm not in Canada, but in Denmark, so I was looking for digitized information, but I will try to search the provincial archive in Victoria BC.

Thanks ever so much. BR Hanne

Hi, The Archive online will only show the index.
Not the full registration.

If you are prepared to wait - [ at present I am a 2 hr each way] public transit ride - away from the Library.
I should be able to get into town - and the Library - hopefully one day this week. I can also check to see if there was an Obituary published as well.

Otherwise - your cost from the Vital Statistics Dept - will be VERY Expensive .
for something that will be 0 cost for transcript - or .50 cents Canadian for a photo copy.

Cheers, Stella

Hi Stella! That would be absolutely wonderful - and a breakthrough, and certainly I am prepared to wait. I don't know how to thank you ..! Two hours' ride is somewhat time consuming! But I am so so thrilled with a view to obtaining this information. Please tell me how I can return your generous favour.

Very best regards
Hanne
