Hi Adair I checked the Ontario Cemetery Finding Aid page at http://www.islandnet.com/ocfa/homepage.html Smith is a very common name, so entered William Hebert Smith and found one reference at Greenwood Ridgetown Cemetery County-Kent Township-Howard Reference # KT-642-7 Using the same info, I checked for a Flora in the same cemetery, county and township and found a Flora. It could be coincidence, but it is something to start with. You could check out the Community of Chatham-Kent web page http://www.chatham-kent.ca/community+services/living+in+chatham-kent/cemeteries/Cemetery+Locations+and+Genealogy.htm They say they do take email enquiries that take time to process and research. As well, you could contact Kent Branch, Ontario Genealogical Society at http://www.ogskent.on.ca/ I believe you could purchase transcripts from them. Hope this helps and I do hope this couple is indeed the couple you are researching.

FLORA POLSON, born 11 December 1882 at Marrel, Sutherlandshire, Scotland, daughter of William Polson and Annie Allan. She emigrated to Canada in 1908 on the ship IONIAN and worked in London, Ontario for Mr and Mrs Thomas Baker. (Information on the 1911 Canadian census) She married WILLIAM HERBERT SMITH on 6 September 1911 at London, Ontario. (Marriage affidavit). According to information I have from her niece, Flora made a trip back to Scotland in the 1920s/early 1930s (it may have been when her mother died in 1922 or when her father died in 1934). Her niece was born in 1922 says this visit was "when I was very young" so I am basing the dates on this information. I am fairly certain Flora died in Canada, but cannot find her death date or where she is buried. Flora's sister JESSIE (JANET) POLSON followed to Canada in 1909 and they both worked for the Baker family. Jessie was married in 1913 to GEORGE ROOME and they lived in Buffalo, USA. Jessie died there in 1949. Can anyone help?
