Dear Beryl Mason,
There is an online transcription of the Kilburn Community Cemetery (in Victoria County, New Brunswick, Canada): http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~nbtvglhg/kilburn_cemetery.htm. It includes an entry for Gunner Walter H. Wright, who died on 21 March 1954, at the age of 31. If this age is a misreading of 37, then he was actually born around 1917, which would match the birth year of the man who married Barbara Constant in 1939.
One of the persons who assisted with the transcription and photographing of the Kilburn Community Cemetery was Patty Corey. I found online references to her membership in the Tobique Valley Genealogy and Family History Group which meets at the nearby Plaster Rock Public School Library on the first Tuesday of each month, and to her telephone number: 506-356-2275. The group also has its own website http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~nbtvglhg/ . Perhaps its members will be able to help you determine whether this man was indeed the husband of Barbara Constant, and put you in touch with relatives there.
Wishing you well in your research,
Patti Mitton
