Cemetery Lookup-Royal Oak Burial Park-Victoria
« on: Sunday 01 February 15 13:29 GMT (UK) »
H all

Looking for help in locating the grave of Franks Whittaker (d. 1976), Gladys May (d. 1991) and
Nellie Whittaker (n.d.) all are in the same grave. They are buried at the Royal Oak Burial Park, Victoria, B.C., Canada

I'm sorry I do not have grave plot or number.

But if anyone can locate them providing exact hate and if possible a photograph of the grave I would appreciate it

Thanks

Hi failsafe,

There is a person who will do lookups and is willing to take photos, not sure if this
is still valid, but worth an email.
