At the time of the 1911 Canada Census - Mossie & Albert did not have any
children.

Josiah Rands and Ellen Rands do not show up in the death records so must
have died after 1932.

Subject: [CAN-ONT-HURON] Rands in Huron Co.

I am looking for any descendants of Josiah Rands and
Ella Rosa Chillingworth. They married in Clinton.
One daughter, Mossaline married my granduncle
Albert Furness in 1910. He was killed overseas in
1918. I have so far not been able to find any children
of this couple. I have found a NORVEL FURNISS, who
died in July 1992, Clinton, Ontario Age 78  Army Service # A115856
This could be their son. Mossaline is reported to have died
April 17, 1964 in Middlesex Co.

Has anyone access to the Cemetery transcriptions for the Clinton area
or access to an area paper's obits for July 1992.

I would greatly appreciate any help that is given.
