hi
hopefully Im posting this in the correct place if not apologies maybe someone would point me in right direction of where to post it.?

Im trying to find Annie Whitehill m.s Sunters who went to Trois-Rivièr Quebec abd never came back as far as i can see.??
I have found nearly every other detail bar her DEATH

on 19 june 1925 Annie whitehill and the son [she has with wm whitehill] leave glasgow for Quebec Canada to Join husband Wm Whitehill who left for Canada 25 april 1925 [got both passenger lists]

they went on to have two more children in Trois-Rivières Quebec boy born 1925 and girl 1927
I have husband William Whitehill return to Glasgow with his children who were ages 8yrs 2yrs and a baby of 7months on 14may1928.husband died 26days after returning to Glasgow with cancer.

Hi
Thank you so much DB that is brilliant . Sunters is the correct name (I think) Ive found her with names as;- Gunters, Saunders,and even Launders and now sanders lol I think theyve just been transcribed I myself had her as Saunders when i read the birth record but after zooming in then finding her father etc is definitely Sunters.
I really appreciate your help . can you point me in the right direction of the website i could find a copy of her death certificate where i can find cause of death?
I was thinking possibly complications after childbirth? the last baby she had would only be a little over 5months when Annie died.??

thanks again DB

Quebec did not issue death certificates until fairly recently.  The church record was the only record. There is no cause of death listed.

Specifically, civil registration only began in 1994. Parish records for Quebec are on Ancestry up to about 1940 or so, with scattered records beyond this time.

for info: https://www.ancestry.ca/cs/drouin

In the absence of a death registration, a burial record is the only official record.
There might be (very remote) possibilities - a gravestone with lots of detail or a local newspaper report or obituary - but the chances of finding anything are very slim.
