I'd double check before you send away for a death cert from 1888. I think their records start from the 1890s and actually may not contain anymore info than you already know.

Thank you Jayne & Norma for your advice. The following is what I got back from the Manitoba Gov't.........so I guess I will just pay the money and take a chance.
