Eva Rosina Bindley - what happened to her?

[H.A.M.daughter]

This is what I have: Eva born 1905 Norwich, England, immigrated 1910 with Mother, Rosina Croft Bindley to join father, Arthur James Bindley in Winnipeg. Information found: Eva a resident at Winnipeg Children's Home age 5-14. Found on 1921 census as a domestic servant in Winnipeg (age 14). No information found on Rosina after 1912. Arthur James Bindley re-married 1918.

Hi

Welcome to RootsChat

Privacy laws are very strict in Canada which makes it difficult to find information.  There is no BMD index as in the UK - quite possibly Eva married and that information is not not accessible.

Her father Arthur James Bindley born 1 Marh 1878 passed away in Vancouver 4 April 1964 - widower - retired bricklayer - informant was his son (possibly George Bindley) who also lived in Vancouver.

Have you contacted the Vancouver library to see if there is an obituary which might name Eva ?

RAOGK have a volunteer who may be able to help - have a look on this list.

Thanks so much to everyone especially Kitty's  post. I knew Gertrude, Arthur, James were siblings from 2nd marriage. Eva was my great great aunt - 'the big family secret', never spoken of, nor recorded in family history. I will follow up with the info from the Winnipeg obit.
