Canada look up please

[jennie]

Has anyone got Ancestry deluxe that could do a look up for me please.
I am looking for Frances Josephine Hatton born 1840 Liverpool. She moved to Canada in 1869. I was wondering if there was any information if she ever married or what she did for a living etc.
Thankyou in advance.

Have you looked on here to see if there are any clues:
Search - Passenger Lists, 1865-1922 - Library and Archives Canada

They aren't indexed (at least, not on that site), so you have to wade through the images.

Hi Christine will go and have a look thankyou.

[Uncle John]

Hold everything, I've found the marriage! 26 Dec 1871 St. Pauls Cathedral, London (presumably Ontario!). Now I'll go away and transcribe it. I also have the image if you want to PM your email address.

[Uncle John]

Right, here we go.

First, here she is in 1861, a visitor aged 20 (musician's daughter) at West Pallant, Chichester Sussex
RG9 / 624 / 40 Page 6.
Head is Francis A B Bonney, a widowed GP and apothecary, with his 3 children and 2 servants.

Marriage is on 26 Dec 1871 at St Pauls Cathedral, London, Middlesex (presumably Ontario).

Groom: Charles Greenwood Moore aged 53 or 58 (the image isn't wonderful).
Occupation: Physician and surgeon
Condition: widower
Residing: London
Born: England
Parents: John and Jane Moore

Bride: Frances Josephine Hatton aged 29
Condition: spinster
Residing: London
Born: England
Parents: John (mumble) Hatton and Emma Hatton
(the writing is not too clear)
Witnesses: Francis Hand and Charles S Moore

That should give us some help in looking for a death.

[Uncle John]

I've now found her death in Middlesex Ontario on 8 March 1906. Died of heart disease. Her husband was the physician in attendance and the informant. I've saved the image if you'd like it.

EDIT: her husband died in 1886 (also got the image) so perhaps it's their son who is the informant in 1906 (haven't found any children yet though).

[Uncle John]

And for my next (and probably final) trick, the family is in the 1881 Canadian census in the IGI.

In Ward 6, London Ontario:

Charles Moore 62 born England, phys.
Frances "" 42 born England
Jane "" 21 all born Ontario
Ada "" 29
Frank "" 8
Quita "" 5
William "" 2
(F) newborn

It looks like Jane and Ada belong to his first marriage.

[jennie]

Thankyou very much Uncle John. Will pm you.

[Uncle John]

PM received and 3 images sent.

Comparing the information, it looks to me as if Charles S Moore the marriage witness could also be the physician and informant for Frances' death.

For general info, Ontario marriage and death registrations are 6 to a page, three columns of two, with the information set out vertically. Looks very sensible.

It sould be possible to find Charles Greenwood Moore's first marriage (from the ages of his eldest 2 daughters). I suppose he could have married before or after emigrating. Charles S Moore might be his eldest son.

I'm sure the 1900 Canadian census is on Ancestry.

I expect that these are on the Wiki, but they have some useful links:

Canada Genealogy | Canadian Genealogy
Canadian Genealogy and History Links - Searchable
Genealogy Links - Canadian Genealogy Centre - Library and Archives Canada

I know I've been able to search and use the Canadian censuses (1901 and 1911, anyway) without recourse to Ancestry.

Census of Canada, 1911 - ArchiviaNet - Library and Archives Canada

Now I know I had the use of some census transcriptions, but I can't spot the links at the moment.

I'll keep looking...

I was looking in Toronto, so it may have been a link like this:

OntarioGenWeb's Census Project
(found via: Ontario GenWeb)

[Christine in Herts]

This page is also very useful - not for indexes or suchlike, but in describing particular aspects which arise in Canadian and, specifically, Ontario family history research. In fact it has some excellent comments which apply for general research. It's aimed partly at "newbies" but has info of general use.

You don't mention a year, but the passenger list may be findable here:

[WendyP]

Oops sorry


the year was 1845.

thanks Christine

[Christine in Herts]

Then this may be more useful:
Passenger Lists before 1865 - Immigration and Citizenship - What to Search: Topics - Canadian Genealogy Centre - Library and Archives Canada

Nothing online, so far as I can see, but links and other useful info.

OOPs - wrong link! now (hopefully) corrected.
