www.findmypast.com seems to show Frederick Binstead, 35, wife Frances, 34, sons Stanley, 9 and Percy, 6, and a daughter Freda, 3, emigrating to Canada in 1920 - so Frances died between 1920 and 1932?  There's a second entry for Frederick going back to Canada in 1930 aged 44 (by himself this time).

There is still a Percy Binstead living in BC (www.canada411.com) (and a number of other Binsteads).

It looks like Frances died in Edmonton.

FRANCES BINSTEAD
Burial Date: January 22nd, 1930   
Cemetery: EDMONTON   
Section: 0G   
Block: 0045

A search of the Obituaries for the Edmonton Journal has Frederick's death as well as a "N.R. Binstead".

Although neither of these sites has the "Edmonton Journal" for the years you want, you may find their obituaries in another paper.
