Hi all Im desperate for information about my great grandfather Edgar John BARNES born 07/06/1881 in Atherstone Warwickshire. I know he left england for Canada in about 1912 and there are letters to my grandfather until 1963 when it is presumed he died as the letters stopped. I know Edgar played in the Toronto Symphony Orchestra. Does anyone have any ideas who I can contact to trace when Edgar died and if he had any other family in Canada? Its is believed he re married whilst there.... Any ideas then please get in touch Thank you for reading this Elizabeth Gee

You should be able to find them on census etc. This site is VERY useful it has LOTS of links to census, cemetaries, bdm etc. etc. http://www(.)islandnet(.)com/~jveinot/cghl/searchable.html (remove brackets) Dea x
