The death certificate for Katherine would indicate there was a son (he was the informant)

The children of Katherine and Benjamin are hopefully living people which unfortunately we cannot help you with on here.  Try Google and Canada 411 and sites like those to try and locate.

Sandra

Added Son born 1934 probably still living.

Thank you Sandra!

Really appreciate your kind assistance.

I'm at the far end of the world in the Pacific and it's very hard for me to get information so thank you very much.

Knowing we have relatives in Canada is relieving! I'll try to dig more for information.

Pleasant day!

Thank you very much again Sandra.

You have guided me well and now it's only a matter to actually talk or meet them...I mean her son and grandchildren. However, I'm afraid whether they want to know us!

I deeply appreciate your kind assistance.
