Based on the post at https://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php?topic=815283.new#new Albrt BECK son of Henry BECK & Amelia TOMLINSON was baptised at Cadeby, Leicestershire, England 05 Apr 1891.

In May 1914 Albert aged 23 and a qualified carpenter and joiner migrated to Canada with a destination of Toronto.

It seems he marries Bella/Isabella and the couple have one child however I am hoping with your help to confirm this events and hopefully locate further information concerning his family in Canada.

Google has mashed two things together there. This is the pertinent one:

"Bella Beck, born 1891
Bella Beck was born in 1891, at birth place.
Bella married Albert Beck.
Albert was born in 1891, in Cadeby, Leicestershire, England.
They had one child.
Bella passed away."

Is there any other reference of a "Leonard" within the Beck family.

To date I don't have any other reference to a Leonard in the line of the BECK family that I am pursuing.

I havent finished my research into Albert's siblings and their descendants.

"Leonard" is a red herring. As I have said, Google mashed two MyHeritage teaser reports together in response to Sandra's search.

This is the full version of the "Albert Leonard" item:

"Bella Anne Beck (born MacLean), 1916 - 1997
Bella Anne Beck (born MacLean) was born on month day 1916, at birth place, to Kenneth MacLean and Alexina MacLean (born MacLeod).
Kenneth was born in 1889, in Isle of Skye Scotland.
Alexina was born in 1889, in Kilmuir, Scotland.
Bella had 2 sisters: Kathleen ROCK (born MacLean) and one other sibling.
Bella married Albert Leonard Beck on month day 1945, at age 28 at marriage place.
Albert was born on May 25 1917, in Indooroopilly, 4068, Australia.
They had 2 children.
Bella passed away of cause of death on month day 1997, at age 80 at death place.
