Claudia, may have made a connection here for you although you aren't to specific on time periods.It doesn't relate to my current research except that I do keep track of strays who are of no immediate interest.
In my United Church Records notes (?) I had notedI have a stray Russel [sic] Harvey Sparling b. abt 1890 who died in Kelowna BC in 1966 at age 69 (Acccording to BC Vital Statistics on-line ?)married to Jessie Elizabeth Sparling.Some info comes from Commonwealth war dead site also I think.In any event, if they had a son Lawson Frederick Sparling born in Saskatoon who died in 1943 at age 23 with the RAF then we likely have made a hit.
In doing some hasty on-line looking just nowI find the IGI shows a Russel Harvey SPARLING being bn in Michigan in 1896. I also notice checking out the IGI/SSDI LDS site that there does exist several Jessie SPARLING issued Social Security cards who were bn in Western US.Perhaps Russell moved to Montana, married Jesse Elizabeth, went to Saskatoon, retired in BC?.Let me know if you want my actual sources or if you have more details.
