      Information per Jack Hazelwood died at Victoria Hospital, Winnipeg.


      per Janice Sutherland marriage date & place and says 'according to estate of Robert Hazelwood, Estate File #32638, Esther Hill divorced Robert Hazelwood in 1908.
      ..
      notes by Jim Crawford...my mother's birth certificate says that her father was Robert Hazelwood and that he died in Oct 1916 in Estevan, Saskatchewan...apparently this information was given by her mother, Esther Hill, at the time of her birth in February 1917 or when was given up for adoption near that time.
      I have seen the birth certificate of her brother Leroy's [adopted name Elmer Leroy Morris] who was born a few years earlier and it says that Esther was the mother and that the father was unknown. It appears unlikely that Robert was actually Ida Mae's father, but since it does say that on her birth certificate, I will continue to list it this way in the absence of any evidence of who her father may have actually been...both Elmer and Ida May [adopted name Frances Isabella Read] were subsequently adopted by different families...another possible sister, Lottie, was raised by their oldest sister, Catherine (Kitty)...it is unknown if Lottie was Catherine's daughter or Esther's daughter...and if any of them were fathered by Robert...
