Good morning Ken,
I have sent in a request to the Toronto Reference Library( they allow you to submit 3 a day) looking for what
business was located at 777 Queen St. W, Toronto . I will post them here but I am not sure it will help.
1911-1912 International Light Co.
1913 Stanley Smith
1915 Esau Muscovite Plumber
1935 David Taback dry goods also Bert King & T A Cuff
1945 Louis Swartz dry goods Allen Myers August Kaikaren
I can request other years if you wish. It does not look like he owned a business unless he was perhaps in a partnership.
Seems like a variety of stores were located there over the years but have not found anything that states he owned a business.
Getting back to Mary I could not find a death for Robert but did find on Rootsweb FreeBMD a death for a Elizabeth
Aspinall who died Sept 1883 Liverpool also found a birth for Mary Aspinall born Sept 1883 could this be your Mary?
Do you think Elizabeth died in childbirth? Not having a lot of luck finding a passenger record for Mary coming to
Canada. Have checked on Ancestorsonboard but nothing with birthdate of 1883 or 1884 coming to Canada.
I do not believe the Mary someone found in Taber ,Alberta is the correct one. Maybe she went to the USA.
