google is always useful

ask it for

warnes calgary

and you will find business information that appears to match the above person with contact info at his website

and of course for

warnes montreal

google finds Jennifer Warnes, whom all Leonard Cohen fans will be familiar with

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jennifer_Warnes

but she is from the US

so instead google

warnes montreal -jennifer

is this possibly the people you are looking for?

click: http://tinyurl.com/jh8jho5

family moved from Montreal to Calgary to British Columbia

the husband's name is listed here

http://www.canada411.ca/search/?stype=si&what=warnes&where=bc



once again, actually looking for people rather than waiting for people to look for someone looking for them is probably the best approach

on the other hand google also found this thread at this website

http://www.genesreunited.co.uk/boards/board/ancestors/thread/1313437

'Looking for information about Gilbert Warnes born in Montreal Canada in1927 and died in 1994 in Calgary his wife Norma born 1927 Montreal , died dec 2012 in Calgary'

so here we have a new thread about the same thing ... with some actual names ...


also

and
http://www.genesreunited.co.uk/boards/board/trying_to_find/thread/1214674


Geoffrey from now on, please stick to a single thread about the same family

all you have to do is click 'my threads' on the left side to find any threads you have started or posted in, and add a message to the relevant thread ... this will bring it to the top of the list and also notify others who have posted in it before that there is something new

this saves people repeating searches for the same information
