Good morning Sandra,   I can't believe you keep finding more, thanks a lot.   I'll hopefully get everything sorted today as it's supposed to rain so that will keep me indoors.   I'll be able to write a book on them soon! The only sibling I haven't found now is Elizabeth Ann b1879.  Haven't really had a concentrated look but found Robert John b1873 married & living up in the Durham area, gone I guess to The Durham coalfields.  That's the whole family then.  We've done a great job between us!    With lots of help from you of course.
Thanks again.   Amberly.

U.S., Border Crossings from Canada to U.S., 1895-1956 - Crossing St Albans Vermont -  Maggie Langford - aged 33 years - born Tryddyn - Wales - - Port of arrival Winnipeg Manitoba - December 1918 - also travelling Dilys  ??? (could be Dillis)  (female) aged 5 years - Wilfred Langford aged 3 years. Last address 9401 - 92 St Edmonton Alta - Nearest relative or friend in country from whence came was sister-in-law - Eliza Hughes - 9401 - 92 Edmonton Alta - going to brother Peter Roberts Barrington Illinois.

Sandra

When Maggie crossed the border back in 1918 she listed her sister in law Eliza Hughes in Edmonton.  This is most probably Elizabeth Langford who married Robert John Hughes - Holywell - Flintshire - Q3 1900.
