Census Lookup Please - KERRY - Ontario ??
« on: Monday 06 July 09 07:35 BST (UK) »
Please may I have census lookups for the following family

All born England

Arthur Kerry born c1867 Wolverhampton, Staffordshire
Annie Kerry born 1868  Atherton, Lancashire
Eliza Jane Kerry born 1886 Wigan, Lancashire
Bertha Kerry born 1887 Wigan, Lancashire
Annie Kerry born 1889 Atherton, Lancashire
Agnes Kerry born 1890 Atherton, Lancashire
Elizabeth Kerry born 1892 Atherton, Lancashire (no evidence of travelling to Canada) ??
Arthur Kerry born 1894 Atherton, Lancashire

Arthur Kerry arrived in Montreal in September 1894 and the rest of the family arrived in October in 1895.

The destination stated on on the passenger list for Annie and the children was Cornwall ???

I am nearly certain there are other children born in Canada

Thank you

Simon

Hi Simon:

You can view the actual census:
http://automatedgenealogy.com/census/index.jsp
I found them in Montreal in 1901.  You might be able to find them in 1911 as well.  You can view the actual images.  (Arthur is listed as Alfred.)  The family is on two pages in 1901.

To view the image, click on "medium image" (or another size) after you have clicked on Page "9" or "10" (on the right side, of their names).

Simon, you may be aware of this, or perhaps it isn't regarding your Arthur Kerry, but sadly an Arthur Kerry, son of Arthur and Annie Kerry, of 1277, Messier St., Montreal, died in 1915.

Hi Lisa

Thanks for your help, I didn't realise that the Canadian census was free to view.

Kind regards

Hi Simon:

I've sent a private message regarding the possibility of a descendant of Agnes Kerry.

There are records for the baptism of Pretoria Kerry Oct 16, 1902 Montreal and the death of Gladys Evelyn Kerry 21 March 1901 at 2 years, 8 months.  Both children had parents of Alfred Kerry and Anne Eckersley.  Albert Edward b. March 1, 1902 was also baptized Oct 16, 1902.  The date for Pretoria's birth was left blank.

There is a marriage in 1886 on FreeBMD with these names noted in the group.  Was your Annie's maiden name Eckersley?
