    3. Hi everybody Below is part of messages I posted on this mailing list about 3 weeks ago "I am new to this list, and have just purchased a death certificate for a relative of my wife who died in Sechelt. Can anybody help me with the following, the address of the informant is given as R.R. 1, Gibsons BC. Would that RR stand for Rural Route address? ( Rural Route is mentioned earlier on the form) Can anybody enlighten me as to what it means. The person who died, in 1976, was living in Hillcrest Rd Gibsons and his occupation is given as store owner, grocery. Does anybody know this Road, is there a grocery shop still there? Any info welcome. The person who died was George Robert Follows age 78 and born in Stafford England., he was a widower at the time but the informant was his son in law C Spencer, I know that George had at least 2 daughters , Doris and Yvonne but which one was married to C Spencer. A number of suggestion and help were posted, including one from Diane Brown, who gave me the addresses of 2 C Spencer's who are listed in the Gibsons phone directory. I wrote to both addresses and today I received a letter from one of them who is the son in law mentioned on the death certificate and the other is his daughter. It goes to show that you can get help from mailing lists and again I thank everybody who replied. Bye for now Graham Grant Sydney Australia -- No virus found in this outgoing message.
