Hi,

I have looked for a headstone photo in the "usual" places - the Canadian headstones site, interment.net, findagrave etc.  I don't see any photo for his stone.  There is one in this cemetery for an Agnes Savory, wife of James Leith Leith.  Is she one of yours??

http://www.canadianheadstones.com/on/view.php?id=301351

I looked at Agnes's obituary and she was first married to James L Leith, then to John Truckle.  Hilda Dance (also on the stone) is her daughter.  Agnes died in Port Perry. 

Your best bet might be to contact the cemetery directly to see if they have any information about a grave stone for your Edward and Agnes.  I posted the cemetery website earlier. :)

Well done RK - nice to find the Obit.  ;D

Agnes Savory Leith looked a contender at one stage but apparently Agnes Dorothy Savory was born 28 Dec 1894 in Bonin Islands Japan.
The Leith family (James, Agnes and 3 children aged 7, 5 and 8 months, all arrived on a Canadian passenger List 27 June 1920 - Minnedosa - Liverpool to Quebec.

On the British Army Service Record Agnes Savory (spinster) married James Leith 15/5/1912 (Yoko Hama ?) Japan

A Canadian Passenger List which shows an Edward Savory - 18 CLR - O M F C (Overseas Military Forces of Canada)  returning to Canada with other troops. 1st March 1919 - Belgic - Liverpool to Halifax Nova Scotia states Edward was going to a sister in Toronto  ???

HMM - interesting.  I had wondered if Agnes Leith could have been a sister or a cousin, but I doubt it if this Agnes was born in Japan!! 

Edward's Attestation papers say that he is married, and wife Agnes is in Hamilton, Ontario - in 1915.

From the passenger lists you found, it looks like his Agnes died between 1915 and 1928.

Thank you both. I've sent the cemetery an e-mail :)

I do know that Edward and Agnes had children but that's all I know. A family relative told us many years ago that they lived in Miami.

Been trying to find out abut Agnes but drawn a blank  ???

Just received an e-mail back from the cemetery, they said that he is buried alone, next of kin was a Mrs Priscilla Loftus, I then checked the 1921 Census, and he is living with her. I'm assuming that him and Agnes separated.

IF this is your Edward - who was the sister living in Toronto ?

Hi Sandra,

I think that might be another Edward Savory, all of our Edward's siblings stayed in the UK
