www.canada411.ca

is an on-line telephone directory and has 26 Claxton's listed for British Columbia.

I would also contact the Victoria Public Library and under the "Ask a Librarian" section for a lookup for an obituary to see if you can find some links to living relatives.

Hope this info helps

Hi Danishdots,

I live in BC and go to the family history library quite frequently.  I can look-up any of the death registrations for you.  Just post which one(s) you would like.

Regards,
Susan
