Default canada postmarks no2

A few more conundrums (pl conundra ? ) for your delectation.

1. Belmont ( province illegible) with a time code pm ( hour
unspecified - one pm collection only ? ) on a 10c centennial.
Fallingrain.com and the Canadian geographic place name finder shows
several. I think this is a no-no.

2.(?)arkview and what looks like Surrey ( as in BC ) on a 1c post-war
KG6 def. the Surrey Municipal website gives several hits for Parkview
and none for Larkview, and I can't think of anything else which would
fit - but perhaps any Vancouver-ites have an alternative.

3. Forebay on a 15c Stamp Centennial. No Province name visible but the
town name is complete. Cannot find anything for this.

4. A violet rectangle postmark on a 10c Indian tepee. Telegraph code
looks like XX19 and place name is PA(R?)KTON.Again no province name.
No mention of this place either in fallingrain or Canadian place name
site.Possibly could be a Parkton Road/Street/Boulevard etc sub office
but where?

5. A Vancouver cds with ?(possibly O). ?.A.A. at the bottom. First 2
letters have not made proper contact so is illegible. Any idea as to
what letters are and what it means?

6. A 3c Karch with ROB (E or F ) ?????? Fallingrain gives Roberts
Creek, BC,Roberval.PQ or Robertson/Robertsonville ( same place ? ) PQ.
I have seen an illustration for Robertsonville and it doesn't seem to
fit - and all Google hits seem to indicate that the current name is
Robertsonville - but has it changed it's name.The symmetry shows that
the first letter after the E/F is the centre which would favour
"Robertson".
Incidentally this is a single ring cds with small squarish letters
rather than the more usual tall thin ones. It could be rubber rather
than steel but this is inconclusive.

Sorry to be a pest, but this is the end of Canada for the moment until
I sort out the next envelope of miscellaneous dross ! Thank you for
you continued attention.

Malcolm
