Ontario burial and marriage Surname Doxsey
« on: Thursday 23 January 14 08:45 GMT (UK) »
Hi Good Morning

Am trying to find Burial of Charles Marsh Doxsey residing in Ontario born England 1892.

Death and burial would be after 1952 but appreciate this is a wide margin.

Also looking for marriage of his son David Marsh Doxsey born Canada 1923 and residing there.  Marriage would be around 1947

Thanks for trying.

Regards

MJB

In case it helps in the search. Anc tree says Charles Marsh Doxsey died 22 August 1982 Montreal.

Canada Voters List 1963 - Charles Marsh Doxsey & Mrs Charles Doxsey - Apt 302 Bonavista Avenue, Notre-Dame-de-Grāce. Montreal. Quebec. Charles Occupation :- Int Decorator.

Have you tried Westmount Public Library to see if they could help with an Obituary for Charles. If they can't, perhaps they would suggest someone who could ?

Think that divorce was Tuesday 2nd February 1937

It looks like the sister of Charles Marsh Doxsey - Janet Marsh Doxsey died in Montreal 27 January 1948 so maybe a family plot somewhere ?
Janet Marsh Doxsey - Administration (with will) (limited) London 15th January 1949 to Henry James Cecil Elwig, Solicitor/Attorney of Charles Marsh Doxsey. Effects £700 4s 2d

Canada Voters List 1940 lists Miss J Doxsey - Teacher - 4046 Grand Boulevard - Mount Royal District - Montreal
