Hi, can anyone in Canada help with this, Charles Dennis and Kate Dennis ( nee Southern ) married in Northwich , Cheshire , England in 1910 and had a son called Charles Leslie Dennis in 1912 Northwich.
They then went to Canada also in 1912 , about 17th November.
Then they had a girl in 1915 called Eva Marne Dennis and the family lived in the Middlesex, London, area of Ontario.
My question is.....did they have another child in Canada ? and if so who was she/he ?
I suspect that if this is the case the child might have been a boy who later went on to have a relationship with a lady with the last name of Dobell, perhaps.
Of course i could just be wrong.

Canada Voters List 1949 shows Eva M nee Dennis Griffiths and husband Jack T (knitter) - 37 Duchess Avenue London Ontario. If an obituary for Eva could be found it may show if there were other siblings.
Middle initial "T" is for Tranter.
