its a matter of finding marriage and traceing down ? you could try to get a canada death cert see if that has an informant address ?

That is the hard part! You could try looking for an obituary online - sometimes a family report in a local paper will carry the names of who attended a funeral. At least you have fairly unusual surnames.
