Hi,
4 of my grandfathers siblings (2M 2F) migrated to Canada between 1905 and 1908.
Of the males, one died of TB in 1920 and the other died by his own hand in 1928.
One of girls stayed in Canada until 1931 and then returned to her original home in
Jersey C.I. where she lived out the rest of her life.
However the other girl has been a bit of a puzzle. She married in 1909, her husband
died during an operation in 1920 and she sold her house in Toronto in 1921/22 and that
is the last I have been able to trace of her. Unfortunately Canadian death records/census
etc are still restricted and I have no idea where to look.
Her maiden name was Melvina Julia Hamon born in 1871 and she married Frederick Sharpe in Toronto in 1909.
Has anyone any clues on a possible was to trace her movements. Incidentally she did
not return to Jersey.
Cheers David
