Did your husband's father pass away in 1980? There is a death notice.

Are you the Enid in Florida? I assume it's Joan's parentage you're looking for? I think you'll need to invest in the MC, I'm afraid.

If the Canadian birth record I posted is wrong then this could possibly be your husband's father (more likely I think):-

His father was born abroad.

Was your husband's father born in England or abroad?
