I have been trying to track down the 2 children of Robert Thomas Gibbons for some time now. I have run the query through the system before without success.
The details i have are as follows Robert Thomas Gibbons b. 1887 Liverpool UK. He married Amy Lillian Curran b.1885 Liverpool UK. They were married June 24th. 1914 SHELL RIVER Manitoba, Canada.
Robert died aged 46 in 1933, his address at the time was 906 Riverwood Avenue, i think Winnipeg.
They had 2 children by this marriage, Gordon Gibbons, who may actually be Gordon Thomas, was born 1918 Winnipeg. Dorothy was born 1916 Winnipeg
However, recently during the free Canadian A- C period i thought i would have another bash, again without success!
Looking over the information i have for Robert, it states on his obituary that he had been a member of the Zion church choir for 17 years. The funeral service was conducted at the Clark Leatherdale funeral home and the burial took place at St. James cemetery. I assume these places mentioned are in Winnipeg.
I wonder if any more information on this family in particular re. the children, can be squeezed from the archives?
