Earl Carruthers Watson, Toronto
« on: Monday 04 November 19 00:57 GMT (UK) »
Evening folks,

I wonder if someone can assist me in obtaining the obituary of this man?

What I have on him is that he was born circa 1910 and was in the RCAF in WWII. He was taken prisoner in June 1944. The press of the time stated he was the son of Mr. C.R. Watson of 320 Lauder Avenue, Toronto. It goes on to say that he had a sister, Mrs Elsie Stevens of Leaside.

Grateful for any assistance.

DTD
