The marriages were in Southampton, N.S. I grew up less than a mile from this family.

Greg:
Thanks. I won’t waste any time looking for his obit if he’s still living.
Edna’s is still possibly on the Obit CD though for 1995.
That’s why I said I wasn’t too sure how accurate the website was.
In that same Gilbert section, there’s also references to 2 marriages in
Southampton, N.B. Although there is a Southampton in N.B., it could also be
Southampton, N.S., which is close to Athol.
