Info on 497 church street Toronto residents
« on: Thursday 08 August 19 20:59 BST (UK) »
My grandmothers aunt Helen Samuel was married to Robert Mcintosh they were both Scottish originally but married In Canada , I found a death cert for a baby [still born] they had in 1929 the baby was buried at St. John’s
On 10th feb 1929

I have no knowledge of when the couple,died or what there rest of their lives consisted of , perhaps more children ?

I would love to find the details of the couple ,could the cemetery burial hold the key to where they may be buried or indicate anything new or undiscovered for example anything mentioned in newspapers in the area around the time or records

Thanks Ryan

I look forward to Any help

Previous threads on this couple...

What year are you looking at 497 Church Street?  If 1929 - the person listed at that address is Thomas Fairbrother
https://archive.org/details/torontocitydirectory1929/page/1386

You can look through other Toronto directories here.  Most of the directories have people listed by name in the first half of the directory...then by address in the back of the directory.

Thanks for the guidance

I have no idea just going by what I saw on the cert

I would love to trace the couple or any connections to them

Hi run kitty,

I see on the marriage cert the address of

Robert is - 57 Alexander street

And

Helen - 74 stibbard Avenue

I also checked with the cemetery and the still born baby is definetly buried at St. John’s cemetery

I was wondering if you can check the directory for 1928 for this address and possibly 1927

Thanks Ryan
