Canada Ocean Arrivals 1921
« on: Sunday 09 August 15 13:53 BST (UK) »
Could some kind person please help me locate the arrival of Sidney Briant (born 1891) in Canada. I think he travelled with his wife Gertrude in 1921 but have no idea of departure or arrival ports or dates. Many thanks.

Sorry meant to say sailing from England!

Hi,

You're welcome.  :)  There is an accompanying Form 30A to go along with the passenger
list. It is supposedly in alphabetical order, but....not. :P
Sidney on page 3615
Gertrude on page 3469

That is absolutely brilliant thank you! Still wasn't absolutely sure it was the right person but this form with the address on confirms it. Thank you so much.

Canadian Passenger List for the son - George Frank Briant travelled on the Minnedosa 29 March 1921 - Liverpool to St Johns New Brunswick - going to Plumes.
(He was on a different page of the passenger list)

Wow Sandra thank you very much that is fantastic! I didn't know about George and obviously didn't see him on the passenger list. Great to have a photo too.
