Title: Ver May Ives (nee Isted)
Post by: BW252 on Thursday 02 July 20 14:41 BST (UK)
Grateful (as always) for any help with the family of the above who emigrated to Canada on the Aquitania on 23 Jun 1946 from Southampton.    She was born in 1905 and married 1943 in Surrey to a Canadian serviceman (Frederick S Ives).    I would like to know the names of her children who travelled with her.   They were being repatriated to Canada, her husbands country.   I have searched Ancestry but to no avail.   

Many thanks in advance

stay safe

If you search freebmd Births using the Surname Ives and mother surname Isted wef 1943 you can see who the children of the marriage were.  We cannot post details as they could still be living

One of the four is indexed with mother as ISTEAD but the original image has ISTED.

Thanks Rosie and Debra.     Yes forgot about the living but I have seen the details on a passenger list but me being me I did not record all the details.    I did not even record if the date was departure or arrival.    Frustrating as I know I have seen the info somewhere aaaaaaargh.    There is one person on the BMDs which I am not sure about and the passenger list might clear that up.   This child is not included in her obit but the rest are?????

The Aquitania left Southampton on 23 Jun 1946 and I cannot see anyone named IVES onboard.

There is a passenger list but the people who were repatriated are not on it.
