Hi Alf: Ontario birth regs are only available to the public up to and including 1910 thru your local LDS family history centre. Ancestry has them online up to and including 1907. Births occuring after 1910 are unavailable to the public except in certain circumstances due to Privacy Regulations. You can fnd out abt that here: http://www.archives.gov.on.ca/english/interloan/vsmain.htm Charles death: Ontario, Canada Deaths, 1869-1932 County of Halton, Division of Oakville Name: Charles James Grenham Death Date: 19 Jul 1914 Death Location: Oakville, Halton Age: 31 years, 3 months, 7 days Gender: Male Estimated birth year: abt 1883 Birth Location: Ryde,Eng Occupation: Shipping clerk Marital: Married Father: George Henry Grinham Mother: Annie Doro/Dore??

Grinham, 3 Grosvenor Street(?), Toronto Reg. #014952 From the Toronto Star: July 20, 1914 There is a long article abt the drowning. I am sending the article to you separately as the List does not accept attachments. You need Adobe Acrobat to view and read it. Let me know if you can't open it or view it and I will type it out for you next week when I am home again. If you go here: http://www.halinet.on.ca/localhistory/forms.htm Type in only the word Grinham, check off the box to search all databases, click search, you will get 4 results for that surname spelling. If you want copies of any of the newspaper clippings, Geoff Cannon at the Halton Hills Public Library will get them for you for a small fee: cannong@hhpl.on.ca He may also be able to give you the info from the Cemetery entry or ask the Ontario List if anyone can supply you with that info.
