Thanks again Sandra
Just wondering by WW2 war dead certificates do you mean they are only available if they passed during the war ?

Canada / Royal Canadian Ordnance Corps
« on: Tuesday 05 March 24 13:17 GMT (UK) »
Can anyone assist me with locating any kind of war service records for my grandfather? I don't even know where to start to find these kinds of records.
I don't know much on this apart from on his marriage certificate in 1945 his occupation was listed as Royal Canadian Ordnance Corps
Alexander Cecil Bell (B) 1902 (D)1998
From what I have found he lived in Ottawa, Onterio Canada for almost all of his life apart from short while where he was in Glasgow Scotland where he married my grandmother in 1945.

Canada Lookup Request / Where did Bell go for 30 years??
« on: Tuesday 05 March 24 08:10 GMT (UK) »
Having a hard time finding info from Canada.....
Alexander Cecil Bell (B) 1902 Ottawa, Ontario, Canada (D)1998 Ottawa, Onterio Canada
Have him in the 1911 census aged 8 living in Ottawa, Ontario Canada with his parents.
James Bell and Margaret Moody and siblings.
However, from there I can't seem to locate him until approx. 1940 when I believe he married Mary Adeline Campbell (I don't have the marriage certificate for this marriage) I know from his marriage to my grandmother later in 1945 in Glasgow, Scotland that his occupation was listed as war service for Royal Canadian Ordnance Corp would this be the reason that I cant locate him plus that it is kind of recent?

I have been thinking about this newspaper clip for so long. I took this as Mary Adeline Bell was divorcing my grandfather Alexander Cecil Bell however, I am not sure if that is right as I believe I have found a death certificate for Mary Adeline Jackson who was married to Robert Charles Bell in Edinburgh in 1960. There is also a marriage certificate 1914 which I will get when i get more credit on Scottland's people to see who the parents are and work out if there is a link. I am dying to know now.
If it is the right person this would make her about 23 years older than my granfather??
