What about Joseph Steele Murray?

Wigton 1907 q4 10b 577

Mothers maiden name is Steele

I suppose there could have been a marriage in Scotland or Ireland.

Or father Joseph was indiscreet with a MURRAY girl but later took the babe.

There is a Canadian death certificate for Joseph (1907) here which is consistent with registration in Q4 1907 -

I haven't really been paying attention ... were the STEELE kids packed off to Canada unaccompanied or did their parents go too?

Today I broke my personal record for most consecutive days alive.

For background and to avoid further duplication - Joseph Steele and Elizabeth Irving Canadian thread August 2014 - hope this helps.
