I'm currently doing research on my cousin George Turner he also went by (Wes or Wesley) he was born January 10 1917 in Toronto and we were told passed away during the 2nd world war between 1940-1945. I tried looking up the war dead but he wasn't located in those records. His birth mother was Beatrice Turner but was raised by George and Ellen Turner in Toronto Ontario. I'm trying to help his daughter (who he never knew about find out what happened to her dad) Any suggestions or help on how to find what happened to him would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you all so much for the help with this. My cousin had been searching for so many years as to what happened to her father and she finally has the answers now. You all are so amazing thank you for taking the time to help me with this. I appreciate you both. :)
