When looking for information on James Arthur Henry with wife Elizabeth/Lily, please be aware there is another JAH with wife Lily that shows up in Manitoba/Sask starting in 1901 through 1921.
James Arthur Henry b. 1881 Ontario
Lily Wilkinson b. England
m. 13/01/1902 Manitoba
first child Gladys Emma b. 1905, Manitoba
show up on 1906, 1911, 1916, 1921 census in Humboldt, Saskatchewan
occupation is farmer but many times this would also be labourer.
Wanted to point this out when looking for info so that you don't assume that all info that you find is for your James Arthur Henry.
When looking for information on James and Elizabeth, I would look for old photos with names on the back, cards, etc. also look for obituaries for the children of this pair as it may give reference to her being nicknamed Lily. Depending on how many females in her family were given the name Elizabeth, many could have been given nicknames. My Aunt Peg real name was Elizabeth, my great grandmother named Polly for Mary Ann.
Good hunting
