Audley Emigrated 1890 from Liverpool to Montreal

[Jacquie in Canada]

You might want to consider ordering a death registration from Manitoba Vital Statistics for the James who was in Winnipeg and died 25 May 1965. It would cost $25 Canadian to order a copy of the registration. Here's a link to the form:

Hopefully the informant would have some information regarding his parents but it's not guaranteed.

Hi All,
Thanks for your additional comments. I realise that J Audley  cannot be The James Audley that emigrated in 1890 but it could be his Grandson or other direct relative.

I think my best option is to write up my records put it on www.audleyfamilyhistory.com and then send a letter to all the Audleys in Ontario and see what materialises.

However that will take a while as I believe there is another branch of the same Audley family that also emigrated from Liverpool to Canada and if I can try and sort that one out first I can tackle two branches of the Audley family in one letter.
Regards
Brian

See that's what I mean about asking everyone to do your research for you, but writing a simple letter, which should have been done and sent to all the prospects in Ontario by now, as the information was given you ages ago...once again takes a back burner to your website updates.  However you were quick to ask jacquie to look into the link for you, since she "knows so much about Canadian Records"...

I received the following e-mail today from the archivist for the Sisters of Providence of St. Vincent de Paul.

In summary, Robert Audley, Age 11 and James Audley, age 7, were received by the Sisters of Providence on September 8th or 28th, 1890 (September 8th and 28th or both listed in the registers). Robert Audley was fostered or adopted by James Hyne, of Newboro Post Office, North Burgess Township. James Audley was fostered or adopted out in 1891 by unknown foster parents and returned to the House of Providence Orphanage in late 1895 or early 1896, when he was fostered or adopted by Mrs. P.J. Brown of Wolf Island in January 1896.

I cannot remember which of you gave me the link to the archivist but whoever it was many thanks.

I wasn't notified of this last post...It was I who had suggested contacting the site, and it appears to verify the Browns in both census were the correct family that James was with.
http://search.ancestry.ca/search/db.aspx?dbid=8991 1921 he still uses iffy info.

I am wondering if the death info was ever ordered, as suggested by jacquie, for James in Winnipeg.

For any descendants who may look in on this thread... there are digitized files from ww1

Note that he says he was born Kingston ...Following the other thread, polarbear found the marriage.... and he has no idea who his parents were. He was a an infant when his parents died...There are many discrepancies. His age at marriage makes him appear younger likely because his bride was so young...
My grandmother lied as she was 11 years older than her betrothed. She looked young and got away with it for a while... But a lot of home children played with the facts...because they could, and maybe it was their little joke back on the poor life they were given to start with. The legalities of truthful documentation weren't all that strict back then.    Lots of people lied through their teeth.
