William Harvey BURNS

[pilandray]

I am currently looking for any info, no matter how small on a BURNS family originally from Beaverton, Thora, Ontario.
William Harvey Burns born 16th May 1907 to William George and Anna Christina. I am unable to find time of his marriage, death, if he had a family or any information at all.
He married a lady called Gladys Elizabeth ?
Any help most gratefully appreciated.

Kind regards
Pilandray

On the 1916 Canadian prairie census and the 1921 Canadian census William, Christina and William Harvey Burns are in North Battleford Saskatchewan area (around the village of Mervin) with land location of 52 19 3.

Father William is shown in 1921 as 46 b. Ontario with parents born Ontario and of Irish origin.  Wife Christina is 44 in 1921, b. Ontario with parents born Ontario and of Scottish origin.
William H. is 14, b. Ontario and of Irish origin.  All show Presbyterian religon.

Saskatchewan has no online marriage databases as of yet.

For further clarification, the birth registration for William Harvey Burns gives his mother's name as Christina French. Also on the 1921 census he is listed as W. Harvey Burns so he may have used that name as well.

The Canada Voters List database at Ancestry has William G. Burns with Mrs. William G. Burns and W. Harvey Burns in Mervin, Saskatchewan in 1935.

Thank you both so much for such a quick response. That is all great information. Do you know if there are any ways to find out his marriage or any children. My mother thinks he may have had two. (she is 93 and memory may be playing tricks ! )
Thanks once again
