Only Webster I know off the top of my head is a George Webster who died on January 5, 1947 who is buried in Brookside Cemetery but he came from Scotland and his obit did not list any relatives.

I'm not too surprised to find HBC records in England. Didn't the HBC get their charter from the King of England? They got vast holdings in "Ruperts Land" and the right to trade furs with the Indians and Courier du Bouis (sic) if I correctly remember my gradeschool Canadian history. Murray
