Hello

I am looking for the death and burial place, for James Gow Brock (Senior), he was born in Hamilton, Lanarkshire, Scotland in 1879.  His parents were Thomas Brock and Agnes Jamieson and he was married to Agnes Stewart Dodds Hendry.  Agnes Hendry died in Glasgow and on her death certificate in 1936 it says that they usually lived at Kinmont Road, Toronto, Canada.

Checked the street index in the back of the 1936 directory - and there is no Kinmont.

Can you tell us all from the DC please?

Was Agnes described as 'Married to' or 'Widow of' James?

Who was the informant (was there an address for her/him) & what was the address she died at?
