I have found out that a great great aunt possibly had a son called Sam - Samuel. The parents would be John Boak and Eva Trickett. If anyone is able to take a look for me. Unsure of dates but other children born around 1903-1911. |

Would anybody have any idea of locating probate records for Canada 1951... |

Mark, it's very difficult to access such recent records here in Canada. I have no idea if there are any probate records online. I doubt very much that copies would be available in England. |

Just realized, Mark, that you had a previous thread on this person and we've done some duplication. |

Yes Margee but the original question being asked was missed and all information already found was put on....... |

You're quite right, Mark, you did ask a specific question about Sam and we went off on a tangent finding info that you already knew. However we had to do that to try to ascertain where and when Sam was born. |
