Arthur Henry Fish
« on: Wednesday 15 August 18 08:16 BST (UK) »
Hi
I came across the attached record of marriage whilst researching census records of James Fish, a sibling of my great grandfather Henry Fish.  Arthur Henry Fish, is the son of James & Sarah Fish nee Chamberline.  How did he travel to Canada, did he and bride stay there after the marriage, I'm excited to learn what I can of this member of my family tree. can you add to the story; I would appreciate any help.

A family tree with that record on has arrival Portland Maine 1907 - can you see family trees? 
If so you could contact the owner for more information. 

4 children are listed and a death for wife Lizzie in Alberta 1963.  No death listed for Arthur.

There are quite a few members of the Fish family in Northampton in England. They link to my great grandfathers Richardson family.

I cannot find a death for Arthur Henry Fish and I cannot find the 1963 death for Lizzie which Millipede found in a family tree ( see reply#1 ). I checked the Alberta Death Indexes which are grouped in years and then alphabetically within each year ( in pdf format ). Website is here if you want to have a look : http://provincialarchives.alberta.ca/how-to/find-birth-marriage-death-records/deaths-accordian.aspx
