Hello Victor and welcome to the boards.

It's always worth checking to see if any one else on this site has your family in their tree. Simply put the names you are researching into the Search Trees box above (in the dark green bar). If you find a connection, you can contact the tree owner for further information. Cx.

Apparently this isn't Victor's tree on Ancestry. If they are correct, elizabeth died
1965 28 May Age: 84 Victoria, British Columbia, Canada.

The tree owner is her great-grand-daughter I think.
