Time flies and I've been so busy with work on the acreage. 

After finishing his degrees my son who is a pianist has decided that he wants to live in London and so is applying for a resident visa based on his grandfather John Henry Waller being born in England.

As per this thread and from elsewhere I believe we had sufficient evidence that John Henry Johnson, born with no mention of the father's name became John Henry Waller, travelling with John Waller to Canada.  There is, in my opinion plenty of circumstantial evidence for the application but Kerry is worried so I've wondered/tried to find evidence of the name change.  Is this impossible??

On a different note regarding this family tree I've been told that preceding the birth of Annie Elizabeth (Waller) Johnson there was another Annie who died at birth or shortly thereafter.  Would that likely be recorded??

If there was another Annie, would that not have been before they were in Canada ?

Yes since Annie Elizabeth was 11 months when they left for Canada in 1913.  Memories fade but I'm quite sure I was told there was this death of an Annie baby.

BTW, thanks for always being so engaged and helpful!
