I returned to this post, read, and responded to your replies several times.  As soon as I  realized my mistake, I acknowledged it in a post.  Regardless, all is not lost.  I appreciate your help and James Marsden Lindsey Alexander deserves to be remembered as well.

Thank you for taking a look at this for me, but I have this.  It gives a date when he died 3-4-51 (Is DD-MM-YYYY format commonly used in Canada), but it does not say where he is buried.

Canada / Lt. James Lindsey Alexander

James Lindsay Alexander was born on April 21, 1893 on Mons Road?, Ontario to James G. Alexander, a veterinary surgeon, and Olivia "Lizzie" Anne Lindsey. He attended the University of Toronto as a student of Forestry up to 1918 and took part in the university's C.O.T.C.  Can anyone help me find where he is buried or any other information about his life?

Thank you all for your help.  Unfortunately, I listed the wrong birth date.  I also think the mother's name is wrong.  This happened because I mixed up two files I downloaded.  Anyways, James Marsden Lindsey-Alexander is a different person than Lt. James Lindsey Alexander, whose medal I own.

James served as a a Lieutenant in the Canadian Engineers during WWI and he was born on June 19, 1889 in Ashcroft, British Columbia.  According to his military records (which I have in their entirety), his mother is Mary Lindsey Alexander.  He was a student in Forestry from 1914-1916 and, after serving in WWI, again from 1919 to 1921.  I think he may have went by Lindsey and not James.

The reason I am posting here is that I would like to get in touch with any surviving family members who might know his burial place (if he has any).  I own his British War Medal (see below) and I want to create a online memorial for him, but I need to know his final resting place and a little more about his life.
