While reviewing microfilms of newspapers from Saint John, New Brunswick for surnames of interest to me I came across the under-noted Obituary of Thomas L. LACEY which caught my eye in that it states Mr. LACEY was born on the Isle of Man.

According to the records of Brenan's Funeral Home Mr. LACEY was 69 years of age at the time of death. Unfortunately these record do not provide the name of his wife nor those of his parents.

Mr. LACEY is not related to my family but I thought this might prove of interest to someone researching the LACEY name on the Isle of Man.

From the April 11, 1945 Edition of the Saint John Evening Times-Globe:
