I have the death certificate from Vital Statistics in B.C. The only info given is the date of death and age. We mustn;t forget that the information on a death certificate is only as good as the people who supply it. Apparently he was a loner with no(known) next of kin. I also know that the funeral expenses were paid by a priest. I have tried to contact this person but have had no reply. The other info re his mother and father and many siblings I already have that. What I want to verify is - Are Frederick Alfie and Firmin Elphege the same person??
