One of my ancestors emigrated to Canada and served in the Canadian Overseas Expeditionary Force during the first world war and survived the war. I have viewed his attestation papers on Canadian archives website and would like to apply for his service records but I think this requires a death certificate. Is there any way I can find his death or order a death certificate? Is there anything similar to 1837 in Canada? thank you for your help Lucia |

Canadian records are not as comprehensive or available on line like the UK or US. If you give me his/her name and approx immigration period, I might be able to find something on Ancestry. |

I didn't require a death cert for my gr grandfather who served and lived through ww2. I just wrote them a letter and although it took about 6 weeks or so, they provided all the details and accounts of his service. I was very impressed. - Paul (Toronto) |
