The above married George Dick McVicar ( b 6 Mar 1882) 24 Mar 1920 McGillivray and they both passed 1949 and 1952 at High River, Calgary, Alberta, Canada. Is it possible to know if they had any children although they were quite old when married? Can't find them on 1921 census?

There are no birth records available for the time frame you require.  You could try RAOGK volunteer Calgary who will do obit/death notice look up (if there are any)  ???

I was able to look up the obituaries for George and Mary Lorina neither indicated there were any children. Both obits were very brief just name, age, date of  death and officient .

I see from their marriage registration that George is listed as living in Calgary, and that  they got
married at the brides residence  at McGillivray,Ontario.

Another RootsChatter passed me the links to the obituaries - You might like to read the obits on these links...............

Obits for the McVicars, you can add them to your post. No mention of children.
