BC Look up

[ednaj]

I was wondering if someone could look up and give me details of death registrations.
They are William Maxwell Neill died I think 8.09.1954 in Vancouver aged 85
Louisa Marion Neill died 12.01.1971 in Vancouver aged 99
Marion Pilch Neill died 8.09.1954 in Vancouver aged 85.
Very much appreciated.

Do you know that you can search the BC Indexes for free at http://www.bcarchives.gov.bc.ca/textual/governmt/vstats/v_events.htm#indexes

Mind you I'm not sure if the years you want are fully covered

Sorry I think I have confused everyone. I got the death registrations of that site. I meant details that are on the form to the cause of death and names of the parents etc. I am trying to locate my family and due to this site (which I have just joined this week) I have located quite a few. Living in Ireland makes it difficult and as most of our records were destroyed by fire, I am learning more about my family from records in Canada.
Apologies

Hi Ednaj,

I'll be at the library tomorrow so I can look up the registrations for you.  If you send me a PM with your email address, I will send you the scans of the registrations.

Regards,
Lynwen

ps.  welcome to Rootschat and an extra welcome to the Canada board!

I've just forwarded the three registrations via email.

I can't thank you enough for doing this for me. I really do appreciate it so much. The registrations have given me so much information - in one way it is wonderful but sad because of their death.
Just 3 more of his children to find but I will keep going until I do.
Once again thanks

You're very welcome.

Are you looking for William's children or 3 of his siblings?  I can add his obituary to my list of things to look up to see if it lists any other family and/or their locations.  I don't know much about the Salvation Army but I wonder if they would hold any records on Marion or William.  Has anyone had any luck tapping them up for info??

It is his children. One of them was Marion Pilch Neill which I now know didn't marry and now have the death details - with thanks.
When he came to Canada there were another 3 children with him:
Frances Neill born 1901 in England
Florence Neill born 1902 in England
William Neill born 1905 in England.
I have been checking the Winnipeg sites and Vancouver sites but have not come up with anything. Still to check Toronto.
I have been in touch with the Salvation Army and asked if they had information but they are willing to look if I send them 15 dollars and then 15 dollars per hour. I only asked for information on the work they did !
Anyway I will keep on looking as I would like to know if I still have relations in Canada besides wondering what happened to the children.
Thank you as always
Edna
