[Cockneyrebel]

The above emigrated to Canada 6 Jun 1907 with his parents and 2 siblings. He married Gladys Margaret Guyatt  7 Apr 1922 York, Ontario, and after that they both disappear?
His brother Albert James Read b 10 Mar 1902 m Kathleen Amelia Partrick 1 Jan 1925 York did the same as did his sister, Florence Maud Read b 1 Feb 1905 m Kenneth Ernest Bartlett 3 Sep 1923 York.
Their other sister Viola Beatrice Read b 12 Jul 1908 in York, you've already tried to find regarding her passing away but found out more about her husband Leslie Arthur Colbourne in another post, but not her passing yet?

Have you seen this rather strange item ?

It's a Montana Late Birth Registration for Charles W Read born April 13 1903 Butte, Silver Bow , Montana. His parents have the right names but are said to be born in Pennsylvania. His occupation , electrician is also correct. The document is dated 10 May 1947.

Leslie Colborne (mach opr - r 141 Westminster) shows  in Buffalo, New York, City Directory, 1939 but no wife.  Anc tree says Viola was in hospital in Toronto 1939.  Perhaps RK could check if there is an obituary for Viola Colborne at that time - just incase she passed away.

Leslie & Viola's marriage record gives her parents as Charles (Chas) & Florence.

In Leslie Colbourne's crossing in 1929, the contact person from whence he came was wife Viola, Western Hospital, Toronto.

Thank you all for your once again superb research. I can't say that I understand the document that says he was born in 1903 unless it was some sort of insurance scam?
It appears that Charles married again to Myrtis (Macklin), did he divorce Gladys or did she pass away?
The obit from RK says that Albert passed away before Charles-is there an obit for him?
It seems that Florence married again to Ridgewell whereas she was married to Kenneth Ernest Bartlett 3 Sep 1923 in York?
So many more questions?
