Canada Lookup Request / Re: Death record search Verdun, Montreal
« on: Wednesday 26 March 14 18:00 GMT (UK)  »
Google News Archive http://news.google.ca/newspapers

Select M
Scroll down to The Montreal Gazette (far right column)
in the Date: box
then small Page box on far right

Robert - published Nov 26 1957 - page 35, column 8
Mary Ellen - published Feb 28 1945 - page 14, column 1
Blodwen - published June 1 1981 - page 51, column 8

I rarely use the Google News search box. Once I know the date of death I go to the issues following and check for Obituaries or Births and Deaths in the index, most often on page 1 and then jump to that page.  I've had it happen that the page number does not match the image number - so I just pull the images back or forth to the correct page.

I hope this information helps.

It seems that I am unable to send a PM until I have three posts, but I want to let you know that I have read your post and PM to me.
So this is post #2

Thank you both. I hadn't heard of findagrave.com. I'll give it a go!

Hello - I replied Jan 21 to your post at Find A Grave. I'm not sure if you read it or if you now have the photo you are asking about.
