Thanks everybody for your help.

On the grave of Hilda Downs father a Donald Boyce is mentioned, we never knew who he was and when he died.

So its good to know a bit more about him, even though its sad.

Does anyone know which regiment Edward Boyce served in ?

Regards

Geoff

You can order his military records and get all kinds of information from them.  They can be quite detailed.

Thanks, I've printed off his WW1 details from the website.
Is the 1911 Canadian census out yet ? My mum thinks that Edward + Hilda travelled round a bit, so it would be interesting to see if they left St Thomas Ontario and moved elsewhere.

See http://allcensusrecords.com/ and click on the CENSUS COMPARISON CHART for CANADA, then scroll to 1911 for a list of sites that are indexing it.
