    3. I looked through Ancestry for a death registration for Jane Harriet Biggs but did not find anything, so the deaths must have been after 1932. You might consider writing to Mount Pleasant Cemetery for interrment information.

Their children, if alive, would likely be in their 80's now, with families of their own. There are 15 families listed for telephone/address with the "Biggs" surname in Toronto - see: http://findaperson.canada411.ca/ You might consider a short term subscription to Pages of the Past which is from the Toronto Star - http://pagesofthepast.ca/ Another newspaper source, which is free online, is Paper of Record; you might find some references there: www.paperofrecord.org.
