Would anybody accessing this site have access to newspapers that would have had obituaries in the Vancouver area?

I am looking for the obituary for Rupert Chelsey Edmunds & his three wifes. The odd time the surename is spelled Edmonds.

EDMUNDS Rupert Chelsey 30 Jan 1886-1 Aug 1959 died at Campbell River BC
EDMUNDS Frances Lillian "Battrick" 16 Oct 1877 - 21 Aug 1944 died at Vancouver
EDMUNDS Molly or Mary Elizabeth "Johnson" 16 Aug 1897-25 Dec 1955 died at New Westminster BC
EDMUNDS Louisa "McCleery" 22 Feb 1895 - 8 Mar 1983 died at Surrey B.C.

Any help finding the obituaries is appreciated.

Hi Wilma,

I can check for an obituary for Rupert Edmunds at the BC Archives tomorrow.

That would be great. Hopefully then I will have all three wifes in the correct order.

There was no obituary for Rupert Edmunds. There was a thank you note from his wife Louise which included a thank you to the Royal Canadian Legion Branch 137. Rupert and Molly were divorced so I think you have them in the right order.

Thanks for taking the time to look. Sometimes it can get confusing tracking down people and making sure the facts that one is putting down are correct.
