The obituary for Leo David Marks would indicate that his sister H and a brother J were still living in 2011. Gave no idea what year he was born.

Thank you both for the info and time.
Interesting famous family.
The other posting was mine.
So its possible Lilian married M.W. Roth and died before 1962.
Grateful to you both

Looking at the obit info RK gave on the other thread - 3 daughters (Lillian/"Mickie", Mrs W McVeigh (H)
Possibility worth looking at - Canada Voters List 1963 shows a William Hamilton McVeigh and Lillian McVeigh - 10th Avenue NE Calgary North -
Sandra
Added Perhaps not - there is an entry on FIND A GRAVE which would make this Lillian born much to early - 1891 ???

Hi,
Leo's obit says he is survived by sister H and husband W. Predeceased by sisters Lillian/Mickie and Jeanie. Survived by brother in law I. and predeceased by brother in law Max.
I searched for Lilian Marks in the Toronto Star and found Max Roth's obituary. This Lilian may or may not be yours - but the name Max made me wonder. I think it would be wise to keep looking for other possibilities. That looked like a good possibility found by Sandra above. Too bad the birth year was off.

Off-topic; I like to return favours. I live in Italy and have a posting "Italian Research"as there is not much on-line. So if you or anyone you know have ancestors here and want some info, just drop me line.
Thanks again
