Hi Carol,

You're very welcome. :) Amazing how our ancestors ended up in places where we didn't expect them!

Dec 1912, has an Eliza Tuck, arriving into Canada to head to Ottawa, husband a painter, apparently already in Canada. Age a little off.
She's travelling with a George Tuck, 12 years old, grandson:

Would fit with this Edward Tuck who came over in Oct 1912, heading to son? in Ottawa. A painter, age is indexed as "50" but it looks like a later mark has gone through the first digit so not entirely clear:

Both sets of Tucks are listed as Baptists.
