Hi, My relatives name was william Enoch Hiden (born 30th August 1876 in Staffs), although it sometimes appears as Hayden. He and his wife Marion, (nee spencer, born 29 Sept 1887 in staffs) left England in 1912. They lived and died in Nova Scotia but after they England I know nothing of them. Thanks, Michelle

Hi there,
until about the 1940's or later (not sure when) citizens of Great Britian were not required to become naturalized citizens. Canada was still considered to part of the Commonwealth.
William Enoch Hyden served for Canada in WW1 - here is a link to his sign up papers
http://data2.archives.ca/cef/gpc007/411385a.gif http://data2.archives.ca/cef/gpc007/411385b.gif
There is also a James Hyden from Staffordshire serving in WW1 http://data2.archives.ca/cef/gpc007/411384a.gif http://data2.archives.ca/cef/gpc007/411384b.gif
Does the following seem to connect to your Hiden family http://worldconnect.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=:527579&id=I3902
~~~~~~~~ ID: I3902 Name: William HIDEN Given Name: William Surname: Hiden Sex: M Birth: Abt 1845 Christening: 19 Oct 1845 ,Lower Way,Stafford,England PEDI: birth
Father: Henry HYDEN Hiden b: 12 May 1793 in ,,of Staffordshire,England Mother: Sarah MELLOR b: Abt 1804 in ,of Cannock,Stafford,England
Marriage 1 Mary Ann LINDORS b: Abt 1847 in ,,of Staffordshire,England Married: 18 Mar 1867 in ,,of Staffordshire,England
You may want to post on the Nova Scotia Rootsweb site and see if someone can help - an obit would list survivors possibly.
Good luck
Sam Canada

Hello once again,
a little more digging and here are the funeral home records for William Enoch Hyden of Nova Scotia
Genealogical Association of Nova Scotia P.O. Box 641 Station Central Halifax, Nova Scotia Canada B3J 2T3 Records of the Halifax Funeral Home
HYDEN WILLIAM ENOCH 03 FEB 1961 8 100
I would think if you wrote to the above organization they may copy the information and sent it to you.
Here is the website for this society http://www.chebucto.ns.ca/Recreation/GANS/index.html

Hi
I don't know of any online site where you could look for their children BUT if you check out the Genealogical Association of Nova Scotia website you can email them and ask for the funeral home records for William Enoch - these records will list next of kin and should have a copy of the obit as well.
Here is the website for this society http://www.chebucto.ns.ca/Recreation/GANS/index.html
Let me know if this works out - if it doesn't then there may be other ways to get a copy of the obit (if there was one)

I'm not sure how it's done in UK but obits in Canada have the names of children listed in most cases so if you get it you'll have some luck.
