Welcome to the Canadian War Brides website. I hope you enjoy visiting this site and learning about the wonderful War Brides of World War Two!

This is an independent website created by War Bride historian Melynda Jarratt for information purposes only. It does NOT represent any War Brides organization nor does it receive any funding.

WAR BRIDE ASSOCIATIONS

I am frequently asked about contacts in provincial war bride associations. The sad fact is that today, the vast majority of these associations have disbanded. I suggest you reach out to local Royal Canadian Legions or seniors homes for living relatives of your war bride. Obituaries on line frequently list all the close family members and that's another good place to start looking for individual War Brides.

WAR BRIDE PASSSENGER LISTS

I am also asked for War Bride passenger lists: I recommend FindMyPast.com for persons seeking their War Bride's passenger list.

RESEARCHERS

I also receive many inquiries from young students researching Heritage Fair projects, to university students doing more in depth research on the War Bride story.

WAR CHILDREN, LOST CANADIANS

In addition, I help adopted children, family members, war children and Lost Canadians seeking their long lost Canadian War Bride mothers and or their veteran fathers from the Second World War. Please feel free to contact me at melynda@canadianwarbrides.com and I'll try my best to help you! I do suggest however, that these days Ancestry DNA may be your best avenue to successfully locating your War Bride relatives.
