My great aunt Jessie (born approx 1904) married Charles Harding (of West Ham) and went to Canada with her husband and daughter Vera (aged 8) arriving there in the 1920s. on ship Doric.
Her maiden name was Church and she had one sister (Annie) and a brother (John William - my grandad) who stayed behind.
I know that she had a further child (or Children) and would love to make contact with the family in Canada.
Been searching for donkey's years for a connection.

Birth records can't be found for that recent a birth I am afraid...unless in British Columbia and there doesn't seem to be info on them there....with dates/ages you've given us... J.J.

Thank you both.
Jessie was born in Dartford, Kent in 1904 - married 1920 in England to Charles Harding.
Had Vera (first born) in England
then Emigrated with both to Quebec (as above).
Further children (at least one possibly named Peter or Jack). followed later after 1929 in Canada.
But, thank you for the help and just reading ...
Rgards to you both.
