Bertram Frank Snow

Story:
Bertram Frank Snow was born in Tollard Royal, Wiltshire, on 18 Aug 1896 the son of William Frank Snow and Mary Ellen Snow (nee Dance).  Bertram's father, licensee of the King John Hotel, Tollard Royal, died on 18 May 1900 and his mother re-married Wilfred Le Boutillier in Tollard Royal on 27 Apr 1901.  The family emigrated to Canada in 1903 and by 1911 they were living at Portage la Prairie, Manitoba, Canada.  Bertram was drafted into the Canadian Expeditionary Force on 3 May 1918 and joined the 1st Depot Battalion of the Manitoba Regiment (Service No. 2382830).  He served on in Canada and was discharged on 13 Jan 1919 in order to help with the harvest.  Details are sketchy beyond this point although the Canadian Census of 1953 shows him living at 710 10th Street, Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada, and that he had married a Mabel Beatrice Swanston in 1933 and they lived thereafter in Waka Prince Albert, Saskatchewan.  His death was recorded in Saskatoon in 1954 and he was buried at the Hillcrest Memorial Gardens, Saskatoon. (NB: Confusingly some records show Frank Bertram Snow instead of his registered name order.)
