Katheleen Emily Saggs
« on: Sunday 31 January 10 17:36 GMT (UK) »
I am searching for my grandmother, Katheleen  (or spelling - Kathleen) Emily Saggs.  Her married name was Nott, but it seems that she may have been married previously to a Harry Smith in Vancouver 1911 ?? 
I would like any information on her and where her family came from, did she arrive in Canada alone? and was she a Scots woman?  I can not find anything in shipping for her. 
She spent most of her life in the Interior of British Columbia (Kelowna, Merritt, Brookmere and Juliet).  She died in 1939 in Merritt hospital.  I have the death certificate but it has little information on it.
thanks

1911 Census of Canada
British Columbia/Vancouver
page 8 line 36/37 has
Harry and Kathleen Smith.
You can view the original documents through the split screen and it will give you ages, immigration, religion, etc.
Hope this helps.

Hi Brookmere, welcome to RootsChat!

Possibly 1893 - so she would have been around 18 yrs old when she married Harry Smith *but if she is the same person she remarried to my
grandfather Nott and gave birth to my dad in 1915..
thanks

Thank you - Pineridge cemetery old section of Merritt BC I notice does not have my grandfather listed.  He is lying next to grandmother, so I shall be contacting them to share some updated info - thanks for the "heads up"

The 1911 Census has
Harry Smith, lodger, b. 1883, age 27, England, immigrated 1906, Anglican, ? inspector
Kathleen Smith, lodger, b. Dec. 1884, age 26, England, immigrated 1911, Anglican

I would order the marriage certificate for Harry and Kathleen and see what information is on it to determine if this is your Kathleen.
