Charles Herbert Henry Jeeves and Amy Winifred "Freda" Small
« on: Monday 02 April 18 14:23 BST (UK) »
Hello.  I'm trying to find out what happened to my relatives after they married (1918, Richmond, Surrey) and emigrated to Canada (Freda in July 1919; Charles returned with the Canadian Army separately, having already resided in Canada and joined the Army there, coming back to Europe for WWI).  Their gravestone in St Andrew's Presbyterian Church, Toronto confirms their dates of death as 1970 (Charles) and 1977 (Freda).  Charles was born in 1881/1882 (birth certificate ordered) and Freda in 1895 (not 1896 as gravestone says).

It would be lovely to hear from anyone with a connection, too, as I have photos and correspondence to share (all pre-1919).
