Walter Elliott - Montreal
« on: Sunday 07 March 21 22:31 GMT (UK) »
Hi

Walter Elliott b.London, England 1870 married Emma Elizabeth Langford (b.London, England) in 1894.

They had 5 surviving daughters:

Ada Rose Elliott b.1895
Violet Florence Elliott b.1898
Daisy Pretoria Elliott b.1900
Lily Elizabeth Elliott b.1902
Ivy Annie Elliott b.1907

They all show up in Montréal, Québec, Canada (Notre Dame) in the 1921 Canada Census.

I've found an obituary of Walter Elliott stating he died in Montréal 28th December 1930.

I've also found the obituary of Daisy Pretoria Elliott (incorrectly named Daisy Patricia Elliott) who died 13th January 1982 in Montréal General Hospital.

This obituary states she is survived by sisters Lily (L Sparke), and Ann Ivy (A I Eadie).

I'm struggling to find their arrival to Canada.

I'm also struggling to find the marriages and spouses names of the sisters (presumably Daisy never married).

And also the deaths of Emma Elizabeth Elliott (Langford) and her daughters (or their spouses).

Can anybody please help?

Thanks.

Darin.

That's fantastic DB.

Thank you.

I have since found the death and grave of Lily Elizabeth Sparke.

She married Charles Henry Sparke (1897-1984) in Montreal 1926, and died in 1993.

They are buried in Fulford Cemetery.

Her obituary states she is survived by her sister Ann Ivy Eadie, so she must have died after 1993.

Thanks again

Darin.

That's fantastic.

Thanks again DB

is there any record of Ada Rose Elliott, please?

Following your passenger list I've found her marriage to James Ellis Clapham in Wandsworth, London in 1917 and the birth of their daughter Enid Clapham in 1919?

I'd also be interested in Enid's details in Canada if possible.

Thanks again.

That's fantastic.

Thanks again

I've found an arrival in Detroit, Michigan for Violet Parkes in 1951.

https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:K8M7-DDW

Her husband is on a different one earlier the same year.

https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:K8M7-D88

And they ended up in Wichita, Kansas and that was their planned future residence, but I don't know if they died there.

Thanks again.
