Title: Looking for Death or any other information
Post by: Chilton on Monday 24 February 25 22:56 GMT (UK)
Looking for two people who may have died in Canada.
Violet M Bailey (nee Spufford) died around 1950 and must have emigrated from England.
Harry Spufford, spouse of the above, no available dates who also probably emigrated from England.

Thanks for that information, no real idea when they may have travelled but probably after 1945.
The marriage date you have is correct but I have him as Maurice Bailey, so maybe he used his second name in preference as people often do.
No idea about the other Violet Spufford.
Maybe Mr Bailey was born in Canada?
