to Shannon of Northern BC; i suggest you google for "Pages Of The Past" -that will take you to the Toronto Daily Star's archives - They are a PAY-site about a buck an hour; five hour minimum, but before you commit any cash, you can search the year 1945 for free to see how it behaves. I suggest you don't type in an entire name because many obits are arranged: lastname, first, middle.. avoid the "back button", it sometimes dumps you and you have to sign in all over again. save your password for the next time.
