I have been looking for information for about 5 years about my grandfather who is named Burrell Charles Ball first married to Doreen Roxie Morcombe (from Omemee) and then afterward I think Estelle Ball was his wife. Burrell’s brother I know was from Emily Twp, Albert and he died a few years back and Burrell died around 1993 but I do not know when, where, how etc.
Also Russell Charles Ball was their father and I believe he lived in Lakefield but there is little information about any of them. I know there was a fire in Russell’s Lakefield home where he had Burrell, Albert and Barbara E. Ball (I think). He was married to Julia Secreta Wood that I believe died when she was young. Where can I go to find out more information?

Hello Sherri. Since you did not provide an estimated year of birth for Burell, I had to hunt on the 'net to find some mention of him. Luckily I happened on one of your message board posts where you stated he was born circa 1920 and, best of all, that he was in WW2.
His military service is a great clue and means there are a number of steps you can now take:
Step One:
Did you know that you can send for his military file from Library and Archives Canada? This will give you lots of detail about your grandfather, and may include his death date and location.
