Shipping records search for Archibald John Chivers and Family
« on: Saturday 26 May 18 07:40 BST (UK) »
Hi,
I am trying to find shipping records for Archibald John Chivers b. 1892 Newbury UK and his family, including his parents William Chivers b. 1862 and Rebecca (nee Lipscombe).

William & Rebecca's last child was born in Newbury in 1904, so we assume that they then migrated to Canada any time onwards, most likely before 1911.   

Archibald Chivers married in 1916 to Elizabeth Lee in Canada.

William Chivers died at Grimsby, Ontario in 1932, and his son Archibald Chivers died in 1954.

If anyone can assist me with information on this family, would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you, don't have access to Find My Past.
Wondering if there is any more information on where the family then settled.
