Henry Edgar Terry b Q4 1885 Sussex, England emigrated 3 May 1907 Ontario
« on: Tuesday 11 October 16 12:12 BST (UK) »
Looking for the above's death and burial and further details of his family if possible. He was married to Jeanie nee MacKay and she died in York 5 Feb 1925; then he married Lilian Maltwood 15 Feb 1926 St Clements church, Toronto.
Jeanie and he had 2 children, Jeanie Mackay Terry 17 Jun 1909 York and Edgar Hugh Terry 17 Aug 1913 all were on the 1921 census at York East.
Thereafter Henry, Lilian and the 2 children are unable to be found by me?

Hi,

On the passenger list that rosie found for daughter Jean, it says she was in Canada from birth until Dec. 1926. So, it's possible the whole family picked up and left Canada then.

Also on that passenger list, she is going to fiancee Mr. W. Davison, 32 Currie Ave. Toronto. Having
a look at her marriage in 1934 it is William James Thomas Davison. He had so many names Davison appears on another line.

Cheers,
DB

It seems odd that the passenger list indicates "wife" back in England and I wonder if that is in error? Henry crossed the border into the US in Nov 1926 on his way New York to embark on the ship to England. He gives his wife as Lilian back home in Toronto and he is going to see his mother Elizabeth in London. I believe the initial for the "wife" on the passenger manifest is an E and suspect this lady is probably the mother he was visiting.
