Children of RICHARD ALBERT DACRE & JOSEPHINE DEZA
« on: Tuesday 03 June 14 19:55 BST (UK) »
I have found the death of one of their children, George David Dacre, tragically killed in a railroad yard accident in Kamloops in June 1935.
I believe there were possibly two or three more children who possibly lived in Port Coquitlam.

Can anybody help with my research into this family or that of WILLIAM HENRY DACRE and FANNY ELIZABETH GAMBLE.

Hi,

Have you looked at http://www.canada411.ca/ to locate Dacre family members in Port Coquitlam ?

http://www.canada411.ca/

Richard Albert Dacre - born 1903 - age 79 years - died 20 July 1982 New Westminster.
Informant was a son. Could be W A Dacre

http://www.rootschat.com/links/011ry/

If the signature is W A Dacre - could this be the obituary - May 2 nd 1926 - 20 May 2013 (with photograph and details of other brothers and a sister) ?

The wife of William above :- DACRE, ANNA (nee Tesluk):
