- 1978: B.C. Death Certificate 1978-09-009049 film #B13586; COD Myocardial Infarction, BURIAL: Cremation, Simmons & McBride Ltd. in charge of arrangements
From death registration: Herbert was living at 4464 West 14th Avenue, married to Beatrice, reitred from Insurance business when he died on June 6, 1978 (can’t read handwriting as to cause of death). He was born Oct 8, 1890 in Massachusetts USA, son of George Webber and Eleanor Compton, both of PEI. His son Ian Webber was the informant, living at 612 West 53rd Ave, Vancuver BC V6P 1K3. Cremated June 8, 1978, Garden Chapel, Ocena View Burial Park, Burnaby BC.

From other researchers:
- My mother told me that George & Eleanor (Herbert’s parents) were in Massachusetts visiting family members when he was born.

- Herbert worked in the Insurance business all his working career.

- '”Herbert was a manager at what was Mutual Life and I believe was forced to retire much to his chagrin. [One of his sons] was practicing law with offices a few floors below with a spare office for him, grandfather would "hold court" every morning with the sales staff of Mutual which apparently got the new manager very upset.”

- “My grandfather, Herbert Compton Webber was born in PEI [should say Massachusetts] in 1890 but moved to BC when he was about 20 - so before WW I. My grandfather's parents, George Webber and Eleanor Compton, followed him to Vancouver (and moved in with him and my grandmother) after that war ended. His various siblings followed later. I don't remember meeting them, but I do remember my mother talking about them.”

From other researchers:
- One of her daughter-in-laws called her “beet roots”.

- I have a handwritten copy of Beatrice’s baptismal record.  All the other entries on the page say “of the lawful marriage of .... & .....”.  On hers it says “of unknown parents”, but then it says her mother’s name, so really only one parent was unknown.  And in the column beside the entry, it says “illegitimate”.  A second child two years later had the same sort of entry.  Seems like Madeleine kept getting into trouble. Beatrice’s baptism record states that she was born on July 22, 1895 – she was baptized on the 28th.  I think the confusion with the July 15, 1894 date might be because there was another Beatrice Arsenault born in Summerside July 15th, 1894 and who died the same year as my Beatrice – 1986 – but in Massachusetts.

RESEARCH NOTES
- Birth date listed as both 15 Jul 1894, and 22 Jul 1895, in Summerside PEI (which is on both her baptismal index and her death registration).

ii.
Stuart WEBBER (1921-2003)
iii.
Donald Graham “Ted” WEBBER (1924-)
