On a certain site there is an Obituary Index for an Alfred Boyle dated 18th March 1995 in The Vancouver Sun.  Spouse is named Beth.  Child is named Sharon.  Alfred's date of birth is given as 10th June 1910, born Vancouver.  Unfortunately, I am unable to access the record as not a member of that section.  I have Alfred's birth as Abt. 1910 and he married an Elizabeth Whitehurst in 1935.  Have no information on any children.  Is anyone able to access the record and let me know if any further information is given, i.e. home address to help me connect this death.  With many thanks.  Zephyr.

Thank you so much Eileen and Sandra.  What a great Christmas present!  Definitely my Alfred Newby Boyle.  Now, thanks to you both, I know his wife died before him and he had a daughter Sharon who married a Ferguson.  Christmas on a back burner for the next couple of hours while I digest all this new information!  A Very Merry Christmas to you both and, again, thank you so much for all your time and effort in gaining me all this new information. 

With grateful thanks - Zephyr
