Thanks Kay
I will check that out.
I am not really familiar with Cornwall but the family did jump around before the children migrated.
The mother Elizabeth ( Harry ) Menear died 1882 St Austell.

I have just checked FreeBMDs. That looks suspiciously like her marry John Warne at St Austell in 1890.I will try and find an image of this marriage.

Thanks

William Albert Currie's death in 1937.  Burial Prospect Cemetery

Short obit notice in Toronto Star 7 Oct 1937, page 43
Died at his late residence, 78 McGill Street.  Husband of Gertrude Menear.  In his 64th year.  Burial Prospect Cemetery.

Doesn't say the late Gertrude, so I expect she is still living in 1937.
