« on: Sunday 26 February 17 06:01 GMT (UK) »
Researching:
Beatrice Clara HARDING born 1885 to John and Clara HARDING Epsom Surrey.
1901 Census John, Clara and Beatrice at 145 High Street, SANDOWN,  IOW.
1907 Beatrice gave birth to Ernest MYNORS-WALLIS  Brighton Sussex (who was my father - also known as John Ernest WALLIS and John WALLACE)
1909 Beatrice Clara married Ernest MYNORS-WALLIS Senior in New Zealand
1911 Beatrice MYNORS-WALLIS is in Wellington New Zealand
1911 Census John WALLACE age 4 at Ancona Nursery Home, Victoria Road, SANDOWN, Hampshire as Surgical patient - John broke his hip, walked with a limp, wore built up shoe. Was in hospital for many months. Often spoke fondly of his grandmother in the Isle of Wight and an uncle who pushed him around after he left hospital on a special flat wheelchair.
1911 Census Beatrice's parents, John and Clara HARDING at Palestine House, Culver Road, SANDOWN, Isle of Wight
1913 or thereabouts Beatrice's son John went to Boarding school
1924 Beatrice and Ernest MYNORS-WALLIS divorced
Would love to find out more about the HARDING family, especially if there are any photos of my father as a young boy and of Beatrice.
Attached photo is of the church and boarding school dad was sent to as a young boy in Radwell Baldock

Do you know what happened to Beatrice after her divorce, and are you in contact with any family on that side?

Added:
She is in a tree on Ancestry - have you made contact with the tree owner. looks like only one brother for her, Eric John Harding, 1896.

From a few snippets of family history that I have heard, Beatrice was an actress, West End London and overseas, I believe. That's all I’ve heard.
I traced via electoral rolls 1919 Brompton Road, Knightsbridge.
And on a website a travel temporary visa to Quebec 5th Oct 1925 which stated next of kin E Harding, Putney? but very blurry, hard to read. She also appears to have sailed New York to Liverpool Sept 1941.
I don’t have an Ancestry access at present but will check next time I am at the library a bit further on Leila and Eric. Not in touch with any of the family, sadly. Just all hearsay and of course, could all be wrong! Thanks for your help.

She travelled in 1928, age 41, as Beatrice Mynors-Wallis, 1st class, proposed address Julian Road, Folkestone Road, Kent, intending England as permanent residence.no occupation.

Have you looked for her on 1939  census?
