If so where would I be able to find a death notice for Walter Smith Fraser b: 1833 d: 1901 after census? His parents are David Fraser and Elizabeth Fraser, David’s parents are John Fraser Esq. and Katherine (or spelled with a “C”) (Fraser) Ross, Elizabeth’s parents are Alexander Fraser Jr. and Mary McDonald, John Fraser Esq. parents are John Fraser and Sophia MacPherson off the Hector, Katherine’s parents and Alexander Fraser Jr. are the same Alexander Fraser and Marion Campbell all 4 are off the Hector. >Walter Smith Fraser married Harriet Elizabeth Wilcox in AU where it lists both their parents have the marriage record, Walter went to AU for the gold rush met Harriet and daughter Bessie was born. Walter brought his family back to Nova Scotia where is other children were born, Minnie married Alexander MacLeod, David Albert married Nora Steeves, Maud only have a birth date, Allister Culton married Janet Wilson, John only a birth date, Annie R. youngest b: 22 Oct 1875. Bessie married Joseph Howard in the 1901 census New Glasgow Harriet is living with or staying with her daughter noir do the census state widow so Walter had not died when the census had been taken but can not find him in any of the census. >Last item Clan Fraser had Harriet Fraser as dieing sometime around 1901 but found her in the 1911 census living with her daughter Bessie Howard and family in Alberta. Have tried about everything to find deaths on my 2nd great grandparents Walter and Harriet but no luck any other ideas would be appreciated. ` >Thanks Wanda of ME No virus found in this outgoing message.
