Thank you.
Never trust anything you find online (especially submitted trees and transcriptions on Ancestry, MyHeritage, FindMyPast and other commercial web sites) unless it's an image of an original document - and even then be wary because errors can and do occur.

Nothing on the death of William Boyer.  There is a RAOGK volunteer in Winnipeg Manitoba who could perhaps help, if you wished.  If you know where Margaret was buried that may also help find William  ???

Oh, is RAOGK still in operation then? I was a volunteer for many years and I understood that it had been wound up because the people who were running it wanted to retire. I'll try that link, thank you.

Bridgett Schneider, the primary person behind RAOGK, died on November 12, 2011. Shortly before her death, she had a computer disaster. The site was down for three years.
Bridgett's husband Doc assured the RAOGK volunteers that Random Acts Of Genealogical Kindness will be back online in the future - a promise he has made to Bridgett.

Thank you. I was a volunteer for several years and had not heard that. I'd better go and sign up again.

Thank you. I had found WJB's parents in the 1901 census, but not the Brand family. So Elizabeth Brand was his sister.
