I don't believe this is them - the names are wrong - Frederick Harold now calling himself Jack but also John's father Frederick William b: 1871 did remarry and Alice Armstrong and he worked at a bank as a Clerk after leaving Revelstoke where his wife died in 1903.

This is his father Frederick William who married Alice Armstrong after his wife died in Revelstoke in 1907 not 1903 the year of their immigration - thank you

This is Frederick Harold's father - he married Alice Armstrong. Frederick H now known as John H Terry also married an Alice Chone in Florida. She was from France and married before also. They died in Florida in the 1980's.

There is a George Jones born in Cuckfield (just outside Brighton) and an area Betsy seems to be from (Traveller family) in 1918 maiden name and birth name Jones. It's still possible the child is Fred/John/Jack's as he was posted in this area, Seaford, Eastbourne in Sussex. Oddly there is a George H Terry registered in 1923 in Brighton maiden name Jones which threw me I may get the certificate. Would that legitimise him they were travelling under the name Terry to Canada.


Is little George technically a Jones?  He would have been born 1917 or 1918, and Betsy didn't marry John/Fred/etc until 1919?   I'm just wondering if Betsy came to Canada, and hubby was no where to be found, perhaps she went back to England and went back to Jones?

Thank you Sandra - this is Frederick William Terry's second wife, apparent she was out and collapsed in the street with a heart attack! She was Alice Armstrong from Ireland not to be confused with his son Frederick H/John/Jack's second wife, also Alice (Chone) they married in West Palm Beach Florida in 1951. So has Betsy died or divorced and where is George. I have sent for their marriage certificate in Brighton in 1919 calling himself Jack.
