Elsie Ellen Knight

[Helbar]

Looking for Elsie Ellen Knight b. 1885 England marrying Richard Tolson b. 1885 England.
Children Ellen b.1906.                  Ernest b. 1912
             Celia b. 1908.                 Cecil b. 1913
             Agnes June b. 1910.        Bert b. 1915
Elsie and 6 children leave Plymouth England on Ionic Feb 1917 arrive Hobart, Tasmania April 1917.
Richard supposedly left England to bring boat to Australia 1916. He had arrived in Australia before Elsie and the children. They lived in Victoria, Australia and had another 6 children.
Looking to find marriage and anything else on births etc. regards Helbar

Do you have any of them on census 

There are a family in Essex in 1911 who vaguely fit, some children who are apparently still living are missing from the entry

Richard (born Canning Town) is with his parents in 1901

That could be possible as I have seen Leone used as Elsie's middle name. With the first child born 1906 I would think it to be correct. Shipping records spell Tolson so the C could be a error in Marriage Register. Thankyou

Colson - I wondered how I missed that marriage 

Birth June qtr 1906   
Ellen Elsie   COLSON

Thankyou Jennifer but this is not the family I am searching as Elsie was born 1885. Not to say your one is not a relative but I haven't gone back any further. Edit - sorry I have read this the wrong way. You are right it is possibly the right one. We will see. Apologies sent. X
