Peter Borsch death date
« on: Friday 12 October 18 14:24 BST (UK) »
Hi, I wonder if anyone can help.... looking for death details for my gggrandfather Peter Borsch who died in Toronto approximately 1970-1975. He was born in Galicia in late 1890s. His names have changed spelling also, ranging from Piotr Borszcz to Pete Borsk. He was married to Dorothy Charlotte Smithers.
Thanks
Craig
