Might anyone possibly have an email address for Patsy Laker? I had one but my computer crashed and I lost it. I am the person who had posted about 5 years ago, an inquiry into Richard Shipway Laker. He was my grandfather who painted oil paintings. He was born in Southampton but came to Canada at some point (I think as a boy or young teenager) and he grew up in Ontario, Canada. I think he may have had a brother that went to the United States. I don’t know much at all about my grandfather as he left his wife and 4 children during the depression years (my father was born in 1929). I do know he remarried and had another son.



Would you know how to go about searching marriage records in Ontario? I know that if I can get a copy of my grandparents marriage certificate then I would likely find his date and place of birth on that and then I can send to England for his birth certificate. Patsy had emailed me once and suggested this and she thought she might be able to fit us into the family tree once I had proof of his birth in England.



Any suggestions would be most helpful.



Thanks in advance.
