There are about 24 Prichards in British Columbia. However there is no Philip Prichard (Or any Prichard with a name that starts with a "P") listed anywhere in the province by Telus, BC's main phone provider, in its on-line directory at: <http://www.mybc.com/white/> However, there is an E. Prichard listed in Victoria, the province's capital city (it also has a large retirement population, if that helps your timeframes). I have no idea if this is Edith (or Edna) -- this is the equivalent of looking in the phone book -- but you can use the web site's search engine to obtain the phone number and address. ***** Peter Morgan * Morgan:Newsletters * 604.683.3241 * pmorgan@morgan-news.com News that sells * #118, 970 Burrard St., Vancouver, B.C., V6Z 2R4, Canada Heck is where people go who don't believe in gosh.
