Hi Cranstone,

Father Joseph Lambert seems to have died in 1907 and Mother Agnes in 1909.
Josephine seems to have been taken in by Uncle Tom Lambert. Horace and Frank were with Agnes, husband and children. Joseph the eldest was pursuing a military career.
I did find that Eric Arthur Willison born 1904  (son of Frank's sister Agnes Lambert  and Arthur Ernest Willison) died in British Columbia 31 st May 1968.
Eric was married to Inez Erickson.

Looking for immigration record for him, came across a Canadian Passenger List Avonmouth. England to Quebec on the Sicilian, arriving 10 September 1919. The Willison Family appeared -  Agnes aged adult, Arthur 43 years, Arthur E aged 15 years, Austin aged 11 years, James 10 years and Harold 7 years. All travelling to a Mr Wood - Sifton. Manitoba.
Arthur was a Metal Worker but intended occupation was farming.

Wife :- Alexandra Yedlinski -Born Feb. 2 nd-1928 in Saint Paul Alberta Canada

Hi Cranstone,

Canada has very strict privacy laws and each province imposes its own even further.  There are no Central registries/indexes in Canada for BMDs - as a guide BMD Records are only available for births more than a 100 years ago, marriages 80 years ago and deaths 70 years ago.

Daily Times Index shows that there should be an Obituary for Ronald George
Ronald George Lambert. Born 1920 Died Edmonton 1998 aged 78 years
Publication Date: 28 Sep 1998  - Publication Place: United States


Sandra

The parents of Alexandra Yedlinski were Stanley Yedlinski and Mary Ranchuk.
Looks like Ronald had another brother. Both parents could have died Woodstock. New Brunswick. Canada.
