Edward Fry(e) b 1817 Iwerne Courtnay , Dorset and his wife Mary Ann Hillier b 1818 Bursledon , Hants were Governor and Matron of Havant Union Workhouse in 1851. Their daughter , Helena Augusta , was born and died in 1855 and that is the last record of the family in England. They moved to Canada with daughter , Fanny M , b 1848 , and son , Edward H , b 1849. Their sons , Thomas G Fry , abt 1859 , and Walter R , abt 1861, were born in Canada before the family appears on the Massachusetts State Census of 1865. I have the deaths of Edward senior , Mary Ann , Fanny and Walter ( who committed suicide ) and I have traced Thomas forward to his marriage etc. I have not been able to find any record of the family in Canada and would be interested to know if anyone can spot them , perhaps on the census before they moved to Boston ?
Thanks in advance for any help.

Sorry - have also traced Edward H forward - don't want to waste anyone's time !
