Hi Shirley, What is the nationality of John - knowing this might lead to the correct spelling of the surname. Do you know where John was born ? In Canada - or did he emigrate ? You Mention that he (John) came from Canada - To ? When? I searched the B.C. Govt Vital records - http://www.bcarchives.gov.bc.ca/textual/governmt/vstats/v_events.htm for John Tchrob - Tichrob - Alice Hawkins - Hawkins - Prince George and Griscome. with 0 results - Perhaps others will have better luck than I in finding the information. If the marriage took place after 1925 - it would not yet be considered public record and would not be online. free to search. You would need to contact the Vital Stats and request a search and a copy of the Marriage Registration - the cost will be $50.00 +. The marriage certificate is just very basic information extracted from the Marriage Registration and not very valuable for genealogy research. ------------------------------------------------------ I did find a death for a Tichrob baby: If you are not in to much of a rush - I can take a look at the registration - to see who the parents were but possibly not until sometime next week. I have a new baby to see tomorrow - a couple of birthdays over the weekend - and dinner with my family on Monday. 1 Name: BABY SB TICHROB Event Date: 1929 8 1 (Yr/Mo/Day) Age: Unknown Gender: Male Event Place: VANCOUVER Reg. Number: 1929-09-420326 B.C. Archives Microfilm Number: B13136 GSU Microfilm Number: 1952636 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------- I just searched the online White Pages Directory Canada 411 - for the surname Tichrob / Tchrob - with 0 results. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------- Canadian Geographical Names Site: Your query sent was http://geonames2.nrcan.gc.ca/cgi-bin/sima_name_v4?english Name : Griscome* Feature type : All Returned number of records = 0 Wishing you much luck with your search.
