There is an English marriage for
Annie Meiklejohn Jul-Aug-Sep 1910 Barton upon Irwell Lancashire
This Annie looks to have either married a James Flitcroft or a John Seddon unfortunately.
I have tried hard to find them in either 1910 or on shipping manifests - together or separate and with Ann* possibly as Meiklejohn, but nothing as yet of any confidence to work with unfortunately.
So far, that we have:
1912 birth entry for Thomas
1920 and 1930 census for Annie with son Thomas
Directories for Annie through the 1930s to 1942/3 and her possible death
And then, hopefully, the right crossing for William McDermott in 1927 with a wife Catherine (also hopefully Campbell from what you and Ev have looked at).
You have listed the details of that Campell/McDermott marriage in 1914 and this William with family in earlier censuses.
We need more new info now to move on
MsKitka, did your father mention any other siblings who may have died before 1920?
He was sent home from Massachusetts in 1912 because he had consumption and the doctors thought returning to his birth land would aid in his recovery. ...He was on a ship headed for Liverpool according to his last correspondence and then a note from family to say that he had passed.
Can we talk a little about his last correspondence..Have you seen this together with the note from his family informing Annie of his death?
Monica
