Looking for a death date of these two people. They both were born in England and came to Canada. Roland King was born in 1899 and Violet was 1901. Her maiden name was Todd.
They lived and died in St. Catharines, Ontario, Canada. I think Violet died in the early to mid 70's and Roland about 1980 -1981. If anyone has a date for these two people, it would help my search.
Thank You

Deaths from that time period are protected by Ontario privacy laws. You could try looking for obituaries at the Toronto Star's archives website: http://pagesofthepast.ca/ (http://pagesofthepast.ca/) It is a pay site but it's very inexpensive and you can purchase a subscription for as little as one hour.

Hello Tom
Information from a tree on An*****ry Violet Edith King (nee Holland) died 14 Jan 1976 St.
Catharines,Ontario
Rolind King( spelled also as Rowlind) died 31 March 1980.
If you contact the St Catharines Public Library with these dates you could track down an obituary for them. Remembering there was not always an obituary.

Rowland King and Violet Edith King are both buried at Victoria Lawn Cemetery,St Catharines
Location of grave Old Cemetery Section K Lot 1315 Grave 1 and 2.
I will forward a map onto you when I receive it,send me a PM .
If there is a headstone/marker it might have the date of birth.
Perhaps someone from the roostschat board would be willing to do a headstone search at the cemetery.
Were you able to get the obituaries fron the library there might be a birthdate included in them.
