Title: Timothy Hurley, Vancouver death 1972?
Post by: Shaztoni on Monday 28 November 16 10:30 GMT (UK)
Hi,

I am looking to try and find the death of Timothy Hurley, he was born in Cork, Ireland in 1912 to Jeremiah Hurley and Patricia. He emigrated to Canada before 1964 with his wife Pauline first to Toronto then to moved to Vancouver in 1967. He sometimes went by the Irish version of his name Tadhg.
We believe he died about 1972 in Vancouver but this is where I am stuck.

Any help would be greatly appreciated as I am finding the Canadian records difficult to navigate.

You're welcome  :)

Just trying to find an obit for him, but so far no luck. :P

There is a Canada Voters Listing in 1974 Burnaby-Richmond-Delta, BC, 11899 74th Ave. (matches
up with his death cert.)
Hurley, Timothy, retired
Hurley, Mrs. Pauline, sales manager
Slattery, Nancy, retired

Hi,

Nancy Slattery is with them as well in 1968 Canada Voters List. I thought perhaps she was a
relative, but no, a friend. Timothy is the informant on her death cert.
