Thanks Sandra. It could drive you crazy...
Almost certain had 2 daughters, Pat guessing Patricia & Rowena Probably born around 1940/1945
The only info I have is the details in my mothers address book
Just how my mother knew Kath is unknown. She never mentioned Canada other than about Kath
Do remember taking about Winnipeg & mention of draglines too
It is all out there somewhere......
Thanks  Chris

Found a Mrs. Kathaleen Hall at RR #3 Bancroft (electoral district of Hastings-Frontenac) in the 1963 Voters' Lists.  She is listed with her husband Robert, a miner.  Quite a bit of uranium mining in the area at the time but closed up in 1964.  Reopened again in 1975 for a few years. Robert & Kathleen are there are in the 1974 list which is the latest that I can search.  Robert is shown as retired by this point.

Thanks Eileen that sounds a bit more promising as my Mum's book gives Bancroft Box RR3

Mining makes sense too, as distinctly remember the mention of draglines
Odd how there things stick in your mind

So kind, many thanks

I was able to browse through the 1979 lists, and found Kathleen Hall listed on her own at the same RR#3 Bancroft address so likely Robert had passed away by then.

 Eileen, you have been so helpful  Certainly seems it is the correct folks

Wondered if there is anything about their burials details in Canada

Going to see if can discover them in the UK

Many thanks  Chris

Has a very quick look thru these links but didn't see anything. Might be worth another try when you have a minute.

Hi Sandra. checked all possible cemetery burials for Robert & Kathleen no success
Any chance of looking up for a potential marriage,guess would be around 1939 +/- 5 years
Mainly want to identify Kathleen's maiden name

Thanks,Chris

Sadly Canada has very strict privacy laws, there is no BMD index for the time frame you require.
