Hi fellow listers. This is my first post here. I am looking for info on Thomas Frederick ARGYLE born abt. 1837 in Birmingham and died March 14 1919 in Victoria, BC, Canada. He was a Royal Engineer who stayed in Canada after he did his time. He became a Lighthouse Keeper at Race Rocks. He married Mary Ellen TUFTS. I would love to know who his parents were and any siblings. He is my husbands great grandfather. I have a possible Father as Thomas ARGYLE and mother Louisa CORBETT of Birmingham. Thanks for reading and Happy Searching.

In 1851 Thomas (age 32, born Bosworth Leics) and Louise Argyle (age 29) lived in Birmingham with their children Thomas (12), Maria Ann (10), Edward (8), Samuel (4) and James (10 months). All except Thomas Sr were born B'ham. Do you know this is him for sure? Do you want a look-up on the other censuses?

Do you have a copy of the death certificate Kristal? I live close to a genealogy library in BC and could get you a copy if you need one.

Hi BevI do not have the death cert yet. I too live in BC. I have not tried getting certs yet but I guess that would be my best bet. Which library are you close to?? I live just outside of Victoria. Thank you for the offer and I may take you up on it if I can not locate it. Happy Searching.
