Looking for information on Jones family tree!

[Chanti]

Hello

I am looking for information on my Grandmothers side of the family.

My Grandmother is Eileen Emily Jones (1924-2007) but went by Emily. Her parents are Emily Eileen Jones (Jones is her maiden name and she went by Eileen) and she married George Jones.

I do not know where they were born except they were both born in 1889. George died feb 14, 1947 in Toronto and Emily died Apr 22, 1970 in Toronto Ontario.

Any information would be appriciated.

Did Emily Eileen and George have any other children or just your grandmother? If they did that might help track them down.

Do you have copies of George or Emily Eileen's death registrations? Privacy laws are still in effect but children of your grandmother (ie your parent or a sibling of your parent) would qualify as extended kin in order to purchase copies and the registrations may have information that would help with your search. If all of George and Emily Eileen's grandchildren are deceased, then you may then qualify as extended kin. Here's a link to the website:

Hello

George and Emily Jones had several children, Clara, Eileen (my grandma), Edgar, Edwin, Living Jones, Living Jones, May.

I have a beaten up copy of thier obituaries and i do know where they are buried just not any other information.

Thanks for the link, I will look into it.

I was going to suggest you apply for your mother's long form full birth certificate but looked and Ontario does not say place of birth of parents...

Here are 3 births/deaths in 1917 and 1922 and 1931 Toronto/York, one or all which may be your George Jones & Emily Jones once you track down your information...http://www.rootschat.com/links/0mc0/
There are only a few George Jones born c. 1889, living in Toronto 1911  but who knows, they could have just moved there from anywhere prior to or after their marriage...

You could look into the Feb 14, 1947 obituary on pages of the past, a pay per view site http://pagesofthepast.ca/

Hopeing to find that one piece of information that will open up a whole lot of info.

Have you tried contacting the cemetery directly? They may have additional information in the burial records.

Yes I went and visited the cemetery and talked to them in person and I wrote them an email for more information as when I was there I was looking for my grnadfathers side as well and they told me to email them and they would look it up for me. But have not heard back yet but it has only been a day or two.

[Chanti]

I have heard back from the cemetery but they did not have any other information that they could give me.

Hopeing that someone can help me. Tried talking to the last serviving children of george jones and emily jones but they can not remember due to dementia and confusion. Hopeing for some other ways to find out the information.
