Title: Simcoe, Ontario Death Records
Post by: dbroughton on Tuesday 26 March 13 13:08 GMT (UK)
I've got several relatives, I know are buried somewhere in Simcoe, Ontario (one of them my great grandpa Thomas Kerr who died in the 1960s), between 1930-2010, but I'm having trouble finding any information of their burial records.  I've tried Ontario burial records, obituaries, newspapers, but not having much success, is there some online resource I'm missing???

The information that Vbain has posted is from Tiny Township which is in the COUNTY of Simcoe. 

Are you looking for information from Simcoe the town, or Simcoe the County cause they are two separate things.

To be honest not sure, the last known address i've got for my Great Grandpa, Thomas Kerr was in 1946,  and that was 62 Peel Street, Simcoe, Ontario. (Taken from his American Immigration form).

Thomas was born 28 July 1891. In 1946 was living with his son Robert, at 72 Speirs Street, Bearsden, Glasgow.

He has a wife Sarah (nee Graham),  born 1892 in Crossmoyle, Clones, County Monaghan, Ireland
(same address).

His daughter Sarah Beauvais (nee Kerr) born in 1927, in Glasgow, Scotland, is also on the same record living at the same address in Simcoe.

He was friends with a Harry Wilton Oakes, who he served with in the Army, and Harry died in 2002, in Simcoe, Onatrio. His wife Mary Ellen Oakes (nee Kerr), was Thomas' eldest daughter and she too died in Simcoe, Ontario.

Looking at 62 Peel Street, Simcoe, you are looking at Simcoe, Ontario which is in the County of Norfolk, therefore the information Vbain posted about Thomas Kerr in Tiny Township is not yours.

Check out Norfolk Genealogy's website for more information that may help you.
