Which website are you using for this Canada voters list ? I can't seem to find this particular entry on Ancestry. I might be missing seeing it.

Thank you so much for all of your wonderful help

Perseverance paid - think I found Olive E Johnstone - passed 2021
Perhaps the funeral home would be able to give you further details.

Hello Jane*  I am related to your Grandfather.  I found this site by accident, so it was a surprise.  I am willing to help you fit the pieces of your puzzle. I am not familiar with Roots Chat, so I would prefer to contact you privately over e-mail if possible.
