Canada / Thomas Robert Clifford Irwin-Calgary
« on: Thursday 31 October 13 12:06 GMT (UK)  »
If anyone could provide any information about this person I would be very grateful.  I think this man is a match to my family tree.

As far as I know he was born in 1911 to William Frederick Irwin and Ann Quinley who were both from Ireland, and he served in the RCAF during the second world war.

Is there anyway to check that Thomas Robert Clifford Irwin's parents were William and Ann?

Many thanks

Calgary Herald has an index of deaths for 1990-1994 and lists
Thomas Robert Clifford Irwin, age 81, death 1992
also listed wife Anne, d. 1989

This is a different person. The Winnipeg Free Press from 24 Jul 1943 has an article about Thomas Robert Clifford Irwin being a prisoner of war and with the RCAF but it also says he was born in Springwater, Saskatchewan.

Thankyou very much for finding this information, is the article in the Winnipeg Free Press available
 to view online?

Looking for information about Clifford Irwin, was born in County Cavan in Ireland in 1911(I think)

Not sure when he moved to Canada, but I know he served in the Canadian air force in WW2 and was captured as a prisoner of war.

He was son of William Irwin (1886-1969) and Ann Quinley (1890-?)

Any info much appreciated

Well I know that she was born on 10/12/1898 and died on 06/03/1950.  She married Benjamin Davidson on 10/09/1919 in Carnmoney- however her fathers name isn't listed on the wedding certificate.

Does anyone have any info on Elizabeth McKay 1898-1950? She married Benjamin Davidson in Antrim, Ireland in 1919.  She may possibly have been born somewhere in Scotland?

Many thanks
