« on: Saturday 23 May 20 15:20 BST (UK) »
I'm looking for any information about Thomas Aird Murray and his family. Thomas was born 3 June 1866 in Dumfries, Scotland, died 1918 in Regina Saskatchewan. Married Alice Hancock on 11 Oct 1911 in Buffalo, New York State. One child, Thomas Aird Burnley Murray, born 16 March 1912 in Toronto. In particular, would like information about his death, i.e. newspaper reports, obituaries, etc.

Thanks
