JJ,

  You have given me some fascinating and marvellous information plus some photos.

 I thank you very much for finding this for me.

                                          Kind regards from Enots.

You are most welcome!  Marriages are different years available in different Provinces...and hard to say in which one they may have married
Further to the lad who came over in 1912...he was born in 1904...and there is a birth of an Arthur Francis December quarter 1904 Cheltenham....

I've removed that he was alone on his trip to Canada, as I was doing something incorrectly yesterday.... there are two adults showing in 1912, Liverpool to Halifax.
Muriel c.1902,John c.1903, Arthur c.1904, Allan c.1907, Mabel c.1912, Ester c.1874, Geo c.1876 Their eldest's birth reg. shows mother as Deely

Marriages FreeBMD show Esther Ann Deeley and George Sheward in 1900 Stourbridge district

This won't help you right now, I suppose...but if any family sees it this information they may get in touch. Anything after these dates would pertain to the living,which we don't post anyway.

[J.J.]

I went to see if they might be on the 1916 and I didn't get results for that ...but Ancestry has a whole load of information on the family!( You can contact them through the site) ...and they seem to have gone to MooseJaw Saskatchewan to settle...

I realize I am dredging up a post that is almost two years old so I apologize in advance if this is no longer relevant.  Lydia Elizabeth Booth and Arthur Sheward were my paternal grandparents.  If there is any additional information you are looking for, let me know and I will be as helpful as I can.
