It's taken a while but I finally made it to the archives here in BC. I have a copy of the Registration of Death certificate for Mary Gertrude Fawcett, Wilmer Monro Fawcett, Mary Fawcett & Robert Bennett Fawcett. These certificates are similar to death certificates as I understand it. Did you know about a Allison Fawcett? He is listed on the certificates as Robert's son and the informant on both Robert & Mary's death certificates. I am guessing you know about Margaret Elizabeth Little (nee Fawcett) too. If you are interested in these copies please let me know. Leeanne Victoria, BC ----- Original Message ----- From: Hugh C.
