Hi again, Well, I've had some more fabulous luck. In looking through the archived messages for the CAN-BC-OBITS-L, I found the break I was looking for - an obit. for a daughter-in-law of Annie K. JOHNSTON & Peter KERR, of Vancouver. Lila Ida KERR died April 16, 2000. She was the widow of Annie & Peter's son, John Johnston KERR, who died in 1972. Seemingly, all 4 of John's siblings were living still at that time. (Hooray!) Now here's my question - now that I know their names & that of their spouses, I hesitate to put them on the list since they are living persons, but I do want to find them - what should I do? I looked on Canada 411, but each name had quite a few duplicates - I don't want to write/phone them all. I could give you the names off list if someone thinks they know a good way to narrow them down. Then again, once you put an obit. in the paper, maybe you give up some of your privacy? Torn between privacy & eagerness! Mary
