Rose obituary
« on: Thursday 06 July 17 13:39 BST (UK) »
I wonder if someone could look for a Rose obit please?
Iam trying to trace a Harold Elson Rose born abt 1907 USA. He married a Marjorie Tooley(1904-49) in 1925 Toronto and then I loose him. He had a son Murray Elson Rose who died 1 Sep 1985 Missassauga. I am hoping that there is an obit for Murray and that it mentions his father Harold.

Marjorie was buried Thornhill Community Cemetery - have you checked to see if Harold is also buried there ?

Hi,

Murray's obit is in the Toronto Star, Sept 3 1985, page F8.  It doesn't mention his father :'(.  It says he is the husband of E, father of R and his wife K, D and his wife M, S (Mrs W Hay), H and his wife B, and E.  Grandfather of C and A.  Brother of Earl.  Interment Glendale Memorial Gardens.

Thanks RK. I get the feeling Harold did a runner and could have ended up anywhere.

Electoral District of Broadview City of Toronto....

1958 shows an Elson and Mrs Katherine Rose at 274 Jones Ave

By 1965 and 1968 there is only Katherine at this address.

Elson is an unusual name and he was known by this in the 1921 census, so I wonder if this Elson is your Harold? If so, these records indicate he may have married again and perhaps give an indication of when he may have passed away.

Did Earl died in Keswick in 1983 - in 73rd year?  If so, I looked at his obit.  It doesn't mention Harold either
