  • Please could anyone help

    I am only a UK member of ancestry but was wondering if anyone here is a member of 'World Ancestry'

    If so could someone please take a look at the death of 'Quinton Somerville' for me.

    It seems to come under Ontario, Canada Deaths, 1869-1934 and I think it happened in 1933.

    I woud be so grateful if someone could look at it as this is one of my missing links.

      Does that look as though it may be the one?

      It is quite detailed - cause of death coronary thrombosis - informant wife - Robina Somerville.

        Oh Thank you so much Trina

        Yes I am sure this must be him.

        He was my Great Grandfather's brother.
        My Grandfather was Quentin Sommerville as is my Uncle and also my cousin (Uncles son)

        Grandad said he was named after his uncle who was in Canada.
        I discovered that he did actually have a Uncle called Quinton and the name has often changed spellings (one 'M' double 'M') over the years.

        There was also another Quinton (Grandad's great uncle) but he lived and died in Glasgow.

        I couldn't find out what happened to this Quinton and only had the rumour that he had gone to Canada but last week I was reading through some documents on the family and Quinton is mentioned. First he is at home in Glasgow aged 10yrs then he was sent to an Indsutrial school in Scotland.

        A bit later there is mention of him again aged 18yrs in Canada.

        So I knew then that he really had gone although why, who with etc. I don't know. And now I know he died there too.

        Now I just need to find out how to get hold of a Canadian death cert.

                  Awww the image is great Trina and I'm certain it's him. Correct date of birth etc. Strange I can't find anything else for him though.

                  Shame his parents names weren't on there but I guess he just didn't want to talk about them and I can't blame him. He had a horrible childhood. Shame that he died so young too. His younger brother also died young aged 29 in 1928 so sad.
