Am searching for any living relatives or descendants of CHARLES DOUGLAS born in FIFE in 1907 and emigrated to MONTREAL in 1929. He worked locally in Montreal as a printer/compositor and in the late 1940s joined the Canadian National Railway - possible still as a printer. I think he married locally but don't have access to the records. I am hoping they had children. If I have the right man he is listed in Lovell's Directory of Montreal up until 1960.
His half-sisters (my Aunts) are in their 90s and living in England.
Any help in my search would be much appreciated.
Many thanks
Julia :-)

Do you know if he had a middle name?
Have you looked to see if anyone else on here has him in their trees by using the Search Trees box above?
Thank-you.

Suggest you add 'Canada' to your heading.
