John Johnson b Q2 1872 Pontefract, Yorkshire and family
« on: Monday 20 March 17 13:47 GMT (UK) »
The above married Sarah Ann Rhodes Q1 1897 Pontefract, they had 4 living children. John emigrated 29 Jul 1920 Ship Victorian and Sarah, Harry b1903 and Miriam b 1910 emigrated on same ship 30 Jul 1920. John, Sarah and Miriam are on 1921 census at Calgary, Alberta but Harry wasn't. I think the other 2 children stayed in England.
Sarah died a widow 14 Nov 1957 at Agassiz, British Columbia where she'd lived for 10 years; originally John was going there to be with his sister in law, so presumably after the death of John, Sarah went there; Harry was the informant of his mother's death and was living in Agassiz.
However, I can't find the death of John, nor records of marriage/death of Harry and Miriam or any information about possible descendants?
Help please.
