Enoch Edward Shaw arrival 1919.  I wonder if he came back from the dead as he died in the Great War 1918.
So can someone please check the shipping list for me.

Hi

An Enoch E Shaw age 28 arrived in Liverpool from Canada April 1920 on the Empress of France. He was accompanied by his wife Dora and children Ronald 10 mths and John 3. They were heading to 52 ?aughton Ter, Ulverston. Enoch was a Mechanic

It looks like he returned to Montreal in 1921 to his parents Mr & Mrs John Shaw. He was born in Sandbach (Cheshire) 

I can give you more info if he is the right one.

Where did you get the arrival date of 1919 from?  I can't see an Enoch Shaw arriving in that year....a few Edwards did though.

That's great, you have confirmed that the arrival of this Enoch Shaw is not the man I am after, and I do have the right one killed in 1918.
