Post by: AlgarvePete on Wednesday 16 April 25 09:46 BST (UK)

Hi all, looking for deaths or burials for Edward Henry Saunders b.1872 England and wife Lavinia Barbara (nee Culverhouse) b.1863 England. They last appear together in the 1931 census in Port Arthur, Ontario, Canada. Nothing further found. Any help gratefully accepted. Thanks, Peter.

Hi,

The Thunder Bay Library has an index for deaths/obit. notices from the Port Arthur News Chronicle newspaper 1906 -1972.  As you know the dates, perhaps the Library would do a quick obit. look up for you. Scroll down in this link to see the research email address.
https://www.tbpl.ca/resources/indexes-directories/

These appear on Page 919 of the index.

Saunders, Edward, age 90, death date 01 Aug. 1962, place FW (Fort William) resource 02 Aug. 1962, page 6

Saunders, Lavinia Barbara Mrs., age n/a, death date 19 Apr. 1952, place PA (Port Arthur) resource 21 Apr. 1952, page 3.
