The above was a daughter of John Culham 1833-1910 and Sarah Ann Robinson 1839-1890, Clara married Robert Thomas Daley 1870-1947 at Flos Township 31 Mar 1896, she was living at Rainy River 1949-1953 but after that can find no records?
2 daughters, Stella Alberta Daley b 24 Sep 1899 and Mary Elsie Daley b 3 Apr 1907 last recorded at the 1921 census at Dilke also with no records after that and a son Robert Clarence or Clarence Robert Daley b 22 Apr 1912 who passed away 1985 in Rainy River but no record of a marriage for him?
Searched on Anc and even family search but no luck after these events.

Perhaps it might be worth contacting Thunder Bay Public Library to see if they can provide obituaries for the Daley Family - always a good source

An extra info about Russell Phillips the husband of Stella Alberta Daley, he was actually Charles Arthur Russell Phillips b 30 Apr 1894 Stratford, Ontario, and passed away 7 Dec 1975 Essondale, British Columbia.
However he was recorded as married at FSO but I can't find Stella's passing? Can anyone find an obit?
Cr

Hi there.
You could contact the cemetery where Russell is buried to inquire whether Stella is buried with him.

Apparently Stella Alberta is not there, so can anyone find an obit about her?
Cr

Had another reply from Mountain View, they say that Stella Alberta married again to a Harvie Robert Henry 1907-1983, he passed away 2 Mar 1983 in Vancouver and Stella was the informant and was still living at 1140 Comox St. Maybe you can find his and her obit?

Photograph of 1120 Comox Street (1985)
https://searcharchives.vancouver.ca/1120-comox-street-2
1122 Comox Street - The builder and first owner was Stanley Judson Steves. He hired the well-regarded team of architects Thomas Fee and John Parr to design this house. He then built a virtual copy next door at 1120 Comox. The first resident was Andrew D. Johnson, a tailor at the firm Johnson and Higgens. He purchased the property around 1905 and remained there up to and including 1916.

Some people like other snippets of information and this was relevant to Stella when she was the informant on the death certificate of Harvie Robert Henry in 1983 because she did lived at 1120 Comox Street. (check the death certificate)

Sorry Sandra I overlooked that information from before.
