Title: Emigrated to Canada
Post by: texaustin on Wednesday 16 January 19 14:38 GMT (UK)
Hello,
I am searching for information on a distant relative named Hilda Arden. She was born in Shropshire, England in 1897 and emigrated to Quebec in 1930. I would like to know what became of her if anyone can help.
Thanks in advance.
