Thanks anyway Linda, I'm not surprised you had no luck, that's always the problem with Taylors - there are just so many of them. Regards, Anne

Hi, Would it be possible for you to do a search for the following people. Sidney Horn Cawley born 1887 in South Brent, Devon and his wife, Nina E V Cawley along with their children Sidney J and Joan N H Cawley, they were both born in Chard, Somerset and Joan was only born in 1920. Could you also do me a favour by looking up a Ruth May Hookway, born 1884 in Middlesex and her husband Thomas Hookway. They may well have gone prior to 1920. Also, again from the same family a Charlotte Cotton born 1855 South Brent. Did you spot the deliberate mistake then - they went to Canada Thank you so much for all your help. Kind Regards Jane (Victoria is my first name)

Thank you so much Linda. The occupation is enough to tell me he isn't mine((( Back to the drawing board lol. Jean x.

Hi Linda.. Would you be kind enough to look at Alfred Platt aged 32 who departed London 1896 for Melbourne. Don't know if he belongs to me or not and I am hoping it might have a little more information. Thanks, Jean x.

Hi Linda, Thanks for the offer to look up: I am searching for Thomas Gibbons b.1889 in Drummin,Westport,Co.Mayo Ireland also his brother Michael b1887, sons of Austin and Mary Gibbons nee O'malley. The brothers are on the 1901 census but by 1911 dont appear at home,i was told they went to USA. but don't know where.They would have left from Queenstown Ireland. Any help would be appreciated Maureen

This looks like them Sheila but no sign of Harry. I will go back and have another look. Quite often I have found the husbands went out before the wife and children presumably to sort out a job and living accommodation. Although the image says R. Hazeldine for the wife it is K on the original ships log. If you would like the original image PM me you email address. Off now to have another look for Harry Passenger lists leaving UK 1890-1960 Name: Mrs R HAZELDINE Date of departure: 19 September 1912 Port of departure: Liverpool Destination port: Quebec Destination country: Canada Age: 36 Marital Status: Sex: Female Occupation: Wife Notes: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The following people with the same last name travelled on this voyage: - Mstr H HAZELDINE Miss I HAZELDINE Miss M HAZELDINE -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ship: EMPRESS OF IRELAND Official Number: 123972 Master's name: J V Forster Steamship Line: Canadian Pacific Railway Atlantic Steamship Line Where bound: Quebec, Canada Square feet: 15412 Registered tonnage: 8028 Passengers on voyage: 1486 Linda

Harry and Kate Hazledine from Ashton under Lyne went to Canada, according to Kate's death certificate, about 1912, with their children Ivy, Mabel and Harold, possibly from Liverpool. Any information gratefuly received. Thanks Sheila

Thanks very much Linda. I think he is the one.

Thanks Linda. Reginald Sexton born 1879 went to Australia between 1899-1903. He was staying in Melbourne.Not sure if he was single or not.

I have had another look Moira but there are hundreds of John Kerrs Linda

Sorry no luck with Joseph Walter Taylor. There are so many of them it's hard to know where to start. Linda

Linda, Very many thanks for finding Nelson - I had no idea it was as 'late' as 1908 that he went! I'll ponder on any other SANDYs who might have headed that way and get back to you. Can't believe there were 67 of them, that's quite a chunk out of the SANDY clans around the UK. Most grateful for your help. Regs Annie

Thank you very much for this offer Linda. I'd be grateful if you could look for Joseph Walter Taylor, born 10/12/1884 in Camberwell. He went to Canada between 1911 and 1918 (possibly 1913) and subsequently vanished. I'm afraid I have no idea where he left from but he was living in London beforehand. Regards, Anne

Hi Linda G. sorry I have no information other than his dob and name,I have been looking for hm for over a year. John Sidney O. Kerr born Sheffield 1874. He just seems to have vanished after 1881. Thank you for your trouble Moira

Linda, Just in case you reply to my note of last night, I'm going to be away for a while - so please don't think I'm being rude or unappreciative. I will check back later - then much later! Thanks for taking the time to do this. Regs Annie
