Is there anyone out there who can access Canadian records who can find out anything about John Stanley Preston born 1912 in Edmonton, Ontario Canada? I am searching on behalf of a friend who is John's daughter and unfortunately she has no information about him except his father's name. He was John Walter Preston born in Skipton, Yorkshire, England, but birthdate unknown. Thank you. |

Thank you so much Dee. I can't thank you enough. My friend will be over the moon to discover what happened to her dad's family. Her mother and father were not married so everything became very confused! I will pass on all your information. |

Yes Margaret, I did notice that, obviously in a rush. Their son John Stanley Preston was born 12th? January, 1912, six months later! |

Margaret - not quite. They arrived 18/8/1911 and didn't get married until 19/8/1911. Course, they arrived in Montreal and still had ~550 km to get to Toronto. I once did that trip by train back in the 1970s - it took 5-6 hours - quite pleasant and a lot easier than driving it. |
