Seeking marriage of Albert Rowles
« on: Saturday 22 May 21 09:20 BST (UK) »
Albert Rowles was born 2.1.1884 at Calgary, Alberta.
His parents were William Aaron Russell Rowles and Catherine Shickler, farmers.

Albert married somone called Alice, surname unknown.
She died 1962 at Vancouver and Albert died 1956 at New Westminster.

It would be interesting to know whether they had any children.

The two grand-child mentioned in the obituary for William Rowles belong to Clarence.  So it does look as if James Albert Rowles and Alice Adams did not have children.
