And that's who he married in 1918 -- Frances Lowery. ;)

He states his next of kin as a Mrs Frances Lowery, 7 Marl Street, Middlesbro.

Just to note that a Canadian would likely have said "British Subject", but there's no record of a William Plaice birth at Ancestry.ca, i.e. in Ontario or British Columbia.

Other provinces would have to be searched at their own online databases, but only about half of the provinces have these on line.

He states he is a British Subject.

Could he have been a member of the Canadian or US military in England at the end of the war?

The marriage certificate would also give his occupation, which could tell you if that was the case.


edit - checked Canadian WWI enrolment records --

-- but he's not there.

What age does the Death cert give?

For ref, because geography can help considerably.

Marriages Sep 1918
French James D Hardy Middlesbro 9d 1167
Hardy Margaret A French Middlesbrough 9d 1167
Lowery Frances M Plaice Middlesbro 9d 1167
Plaice William A Lowery Middlesbro 9d 1167


For finding his birth record, it could also help to know his full name - you'll have to get the marriage certificate for that.

The cert will also give his father's name, which might make it possible to find him in a census.

Trying to find birth record for the above, have found his marriage in 1918 to my father's mother and his death in 1920 but cannot trace birth record or even find him in any of the census. I would appreciate any help.

Thanks
