Canada Lookup Request / BMD lookup for Occomore ( Completed, with thanks)

Can some one please look for the death of Minnie Occomore?
I notice on the Canadian Ancestry there is a Minnie Oconner who died in York Northumberland West, Ontario ,which is near the place she was living
in 1891
She appears to have gone to Hamilton Northumberland West, Ontario as shown on the 1891 Census of Canada and was adopted by an Irish Family called STOTT, (James and Jane )
She came from Camberwell London and was born in 1878. She was sent Dr Barnardos Home. along with her elder sister Susan Elizabeth Occomore they where both sent to a new life in Canada after the suddden death of their Father.
Minnie went in 1886 and her sister Susan (Susie) was sent over two years later. they appear to have been completely separated. Susan wasn't adopted, but went on to marry and live in America.
I am compiling a one name study of the name Occomore and It is a name that is often misspelled. I find typing Oc*more often yields good results.
I have asked for a check on the death records but if anyone can trace a marriage I would be most interested.
Many thanks
Patricia
