Looking for Marriage Cert - Likely Ontario or Quebec
« on: Monday 17 July 23 23:09 BST (UK) »
Hello,

I'm looking to find the marriage cert for an Edward / Edgar Caron (1908-1976) to his wife Marguerite (maiden name unknown) (1908 - 1988). I know their years of birth and death from their headstone but know nothing else. I'm trying to track their parents and further back. Any pointers in the right direction would be great - i'm used to genealogy in Ireland, Britain and USA but have no clue where to go for Canadian records. They are both buried at Lake Of The Woods Cemetery
Kenora, Kenora District, Ontario.

There is a public tree on ancestry for this couple, the owner Gisele Roziere, Edgar's parents and grandparents and Marguerite's parents and grandparents and Edgar and Marguerites children. There are also photographs.

Hi, I don't have an ancestry subscription, could you PM me the names and place of birth of their Grandparents, i'm trying to find their Irish connection.

Thanks to all who have posted so far - very helpful & much appreciated!
