Hi,

Obit. for Eliol Carson Mar. 5, 1990 page 7, beloved son of the late Rupert Carson
and the late Gladys Taylor, brother of Cameron of Parksville, BC, Jean Stewart and Sylvia Weston
both of Lennoxville and Dennis (Eleanor) of Parksville BC.....

This is the main page of The Recorder, in the search bar after "dans cette publication and the down arrow", if you add "Sylvia Weston" or "Sylvia Skilling" you can pick up bits and pieces that appeared in the paper, or others that were in the area. On the right side of the page there is "calendrier" which allows you to pick a specific date to look at.

I thought perhaps that Sylvia's obit may appear in the Sherbrooke paper as she was a long time
resident in the area, but I don't see it.

Thank you all, I have just been informed from a nephew if George Skilling that Sylvia is buried in the same grave as my grand uncle Richard Weston in huntingville. Thanks again.

Good info from Dbree.

Interment.net  do mention Sylvia Carson.  Perhaps an email or letter to the cemetery might help ?

Carson, Sylvia, b. 1926, d. no date, s/w & wife of Richard Weston.
