Hello Listers
I have been having some problems locating a death cert for a relative of my
wifes. The information that this cert contains is crucial to further family
research. Below is the information that I have regarding Bridget Bolan:

Micro film #095430 Drouin Microfilms #3007/1903/pg9/S10
Bridget Bollen wife of Nicolas Ryan
Died September 21, 1903 in Montreal at the age of 40.
Buried September 26, 1903 at Lac St. Marie Cemetery.Gatineau
Witnesses- Martin Ryan, Thomas Ryan

Burial record from parish records of Lac St. Marie, Gatineau County
Le vingt-six septembre mil neuf cent trois, nous soussigné, curé de cette
parois se, avons inhumé dans le cimetière de cette église paroissiale le
corps de Bregitte Bollen, décédée le vingt et un septembre à Montréal,
âgée de quarante ans, épouse de Nicolas Ryan

Témoins: Martin Ryan Thomas Ryan
Onis Lemay curét

A request to the Directeur de l'Etat civil provided this reply:
They do not have enough information to track down this death.

I provided all of the above information in my request including the
difference in the name spelling and now am wondering if there are any other
resorces that I can use to get additional information about Bridget.
There is a family rumour that she died of T.B. , would this have any
bearing on availability of information.
Thanks in advance for any assistance,
Dave, Ont.
